WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.--It is exnectcd
that the President will make the appoint
ment OF a Chief OF the Bureau Of Labor
Statistics this week. The appointment, it
will be remembered, was once given to
John jarrett, Of Pittsburgh, but tho presi-
dent withheld his commission. The labor
unions have been clalmorous for the m.
polntmcnt OF some one. but there was no
universal expression for any particular
man and now the contest has mar.
rowed down to very few
men. Fifty names OF applicants
we're on the list furnished the Prcsi.
dent on Monday, among them David
liealy, who wis recently deputy in the
New York Bureau OF Labor Statistics;
Goodwin Moody, Thomas B. Connerv,
and George Blair, Of New York. The in,
dications are now that neither OF these
men will get the prize. The contest seems
TO have settled down between Charles S.
Hill, OF the State department, and John
f.hrenbatch, Of Ohio, supervising inspec-
tor oil steamboats, ut Cincinnati. {. Alr, Feh-
renbatch is likely to be the choice. lie is
q practical machinist and mechanical en-
sineer, and has for years been conspicu.
GUS in labor organizations. He has. been
strongly backed by the Hon. Ben BITTER

THE RESULT OF THE VOTE OF
CENSllRE.

There is only one constitutional
result, and that is the resignation of
the Ministry. These Ministers how
ever have an utter contempt for law
and the constitution, and there is no
probability that they will voluntarily
resign. They are the kind that if
they were kicked out, they would
sneak around and crawl in the back
door, if it was open.
If His Majesty is consistent with
the reasons stated in his answer to
the citizens committee, he will
forthwith request the resignation of
Ministers in whom the Assembly
has expressed want of confidence.
The responsibility is now with His
Majesty, to show whittier he means
what he says and does or not.

THE EXPOSURE MADE BY THE
FINANCE COMMITTEE

Is of u violation of law precisely
similar to the illegal cabinet Reso-
luton" Expenditures. 1t would
seem that with the experience of the
past few weeks, and the pointed
attention which has been drawn to
the illegality of such proceedings,
the Ministers would have exercised
a little caution, and have at least
waited until the Legislature adj
journed before resuming their evil
practices. But they probably relied
upon nobodies finding it out. If
the Finance Committee had not
accidentally discovered the NAL
feasance no one outside of the ring
would have been the wiser for it.
Their never was balder and more
direct violation of law and breach of
trust. The appropriation was made
by reason of the majority of the
House believing that there was some
honor left in the Ministery; but the
Ministers have demonstrated beyond
n doubt that such feeling has no
existence in their make up.

COL. CLAUS SPRECKELS

Is a power in this community. 1t is
of no use to deny what is patent
fact. We are not opposers Of Mr..
Spreckels, on principle, although we
have been opposed to some of his
projects, on principle. Whenever
he does that which is for the interest
of the community, we shall give him
credit therefor. He is now in a
more liberal frame of mind than
when he arrived here; but he has
not, as yet, done anything which
entities him to any individual credit
or to the thanks of the public.
He has obtained subsidy for his
steamers, altogether in excess of
what the country can afford to pay.
1t if, perhaps, more than can be
expected of human nature, but if he
will reduce that amount to q reason
able sum, he will be doing credit
able act, and will show that he has
the good of the country at heart to a
greater degree than the false repre-
sentatives in the Legislative Hall.
So long as Mr.. Spreckels continues
to support Mr.. Gibson, however, he
cannot expect any hearty feeling TO-
wards himself, nor can he be con-
sidered as acting otherwise than for
some personal reason. When Mr..
Spreckels uses his undoubted infu-
ence towards ousting the Gibson
combination, he will be acting in the
interest of the whole community and
of good government, as well as his
own business interests, and may
then claim and will receive credit as
being the friend of the country.
