Unwarranted Assertions,

A Washington special to the New York
Ecening Post gives some unworthy rea-
sons for the belief that the Presidents
nominations would not fare very badly at
the hands OF the Republican Senators.
These reasons have been limited at hereto
fore. 1t is stated that prominent Demo-
cratic Senator is authority for the asser-
ton that the President has many grateful
friends among the Republicans. This
Senator is reported to have said: 81 could
name more than half.a-dozen Republican
Senators VINO have more friends in good
fat Federal offices than have, and half-a.
dozen more who have about as many as /.
The President has no difficulty whatever
in securing himself Republican support
in the Senate, and from what has al
ready occurred In executive session, il is
very plain that those Senator'S whose rela-
tives and personal friends have not been
turned out Of their places are willing and
ready to confirm all nominations, or at
least nearly all. l have no doubt that
some nominations will be rejected, but
that will in most cases be done with the
help of Democratic votes"
The Posts correspondent gives a Re-
publican Senator as authority for a sub
stantial confederation of the statement,
and says that he charged that those Re-
publican Senator's who had received
favors at the hands OF the President "are
responsible for the failure Of the caucus
TO agree to a programme about confrma-
tions.'
The correspondent evidently got among
the few disgruntled Senators Of both sides
Of the House, those who cannot appre-
clate the ideas Of the President in regard
to the civil service.
There seems to be no ground on which
to base either OF the above statements
There may be some Democratic Senators
who have not secured as many places fol-
their friends as they would like, but the
course of the President in making APP.
| pointments has been so open, honest and
above-board as to command the respect
and admiration of the best men of both
| parties-and all efforts TO belittle him, OIL
10 assign to him any other than high and
worthy motives must inevitably come tC
| naught.
