WnAra fine family riot there is, TO be
sure. McGraw had the lead for the Col.
lectoship, and with one accord the oppo'
sition in his own party began to stab him
with letters assailing his Democracy and
his character as a man. II Mr.. McGraw
and his friends don't pay back these pretty
compliments with interest they are either
more or less than human. Ifthere is any
dark chapter in Mr.. McGraw's life the
lSrRLLloEScER has not heard Of it till now,
and these witnesses are open to the snspi'
ciOu Of prejudice.
We had supposed John 7. McGraw TO be
Albright young man, a good lawyer and
good citizen-capable and worthy to filI
theplace to which he has been nominal
ed, We see no reason to alter this esti
mate. The accusations are vague,!and the
aecuscS Of faction opposing the sena
torial side. The objections Of the op
position have been urged with pertinacity
the retiring Governor and the new Gov
etnOr urged in person their views in op
position to the appointment-but the
President was not moved. II McGraS
isa'ta good Democrat he may still be &
good officer. But the entire delegation ii
Congress vouches for him as party man
and the delegation ought to know.

Against McGraw are filed papers Of a
most damaging character. All the Jack.
son crowd and Wilson administration
united against him, and in letters now in
Higgins office, fled with Manning and
read by that reformer, McGraw's personal
character as an honest man is seriously as
sailed and bad charges made against him.
There is one letter from Z. Hill Marshall,
editor OF the Grafton Standard, and fel-
low.townsman Of McGraw's, making, most
serious charges and speaking for and in
behalfof the, Jackson and Wilson faction.
There are other letters from fellow-Irish.

Virginia protesting against McGraw's ap.
pointment, and saying, "Giye US anybody

It is stated by some angry West Vir.

II may be that the President was moi
unwilling to acknowledge his indebted

that he has retained in place an officer Of

WASHINGTON, D. c., March sl!.The
nomination to-day Of John I. McGraw, Of
Grafton, to be Collector Of internal Reye-
nue. for West Virginia, means that the ad.
ministration does not expect opposition in
the Senate to this class Of appointments,
particularly where the removal is from an
office held at the pleasure of the executive.
Nor is the opposition thought probable,
since the Republican incumbent would
certainly be put out and Democrat put
in after adjournment Of the senate. Nc

by the friends Of the State House ring Of
