The declaration of Secretary Chandler
and First Assistant Postmaster General
Hatton, which was published day or two
ago, that the President was making no
effort to secure the Presidential nomina-
ton of his party, is not generally credited
in Washington. Why did Nlessrs. Chand-
Ter and Hatton take the trouble to deny
that Mr.. Arthur was working to succeed
himself as PRESIDENT They must be IN
his confidence or they would not be pre-
pared to speak so positively about his
affairs and intentions. The impression ap-
pears to be that Chandler and Hatton are
Mr.. Arthur's managers, and that they are
trying to keep their movements and plans
a secret until they have perfected their
arrangements for securing the delegates
from the South. 1t is openly asserted in
Washington specials that leading Repub-
lieans from almost all the Southern States
have visited the national capital
within the last two months, and
have been cIOseted with Chandler
and Hatton. II they are not arranging to
secure the Southern delegates for Mr.. Ar
thur, what do their conferences with lead
ing Southern Republicans mean? 1t is
not probable that they are managers for
any other candidate. 1t is alleged that
special agents of the different depart
ments whose duties call them South and
Southern Federal officials have been in
structed BY Chandler and Hatton with
respect to the arguments to use and
the moves to make in order to
secure Arthur delegates. 1t has
been frequently charged that Mr.. Evans
was appointed Commissioner of Internal
Revenue with the idea that he could do
good work in getting Arthur delegations
in the South, and doubtless he has not
been backward in performing the work
expected Of him. Sherman in 1880 en-
pIoyed about the same tactics that Chan
dler and HattOn are understood to be now
employing. Mr.. Arthur would like
the Chicago nomination, no doubt.
without appearing to make an effort for it.
He will show himself to be very shrewd
politician if he succeeds in cOncealing his
movements until his work is accom-
plished.

InMise ActiOn.

We are not, it seems, to have the new
standard time in this city. The city
clocks are to be set ahead SO minutes next
Saturday, and we are to return to the
old local time. The Council passed
an ordinance to that effect last
night. We are confident the COun-
ell will soon regret their action.
Less than a hundred people petitioned for
a return to the old time, and without CIV
ing the other 10000 citizens a chance to
be heard, they made haste to grant the
petition. The change to the new stand
ard was not given a fair trial. People
were not given a reasonable chance to be-
come accustomed to it. In q few months
they would hardly have remembered that
there had been any other standard. We
venture to say that the new STAN
dard was satisfactory to a vast ma
jOrity Of the people, or would very
soon have been. Now, with a
double standard. we shall have inter-
minable confusion in all matters in which
the question Of time is involved. 1t will
not be long, in all probability, before petit
tons will be presented to the Council
asking for the adoption Of the new
standard again. This Council may
not act fayorably upon them, but
the chances are that W COun-
Gil will. We have not noticed
that any of the towns and cities OF the
country which adopted the new standard
have abandoned it. Savannah has the
glory of being alone in her backward step
in this matter.
