OhiectionabIe Appointments

Pres ident Arthur appears to have been
paving his political debts and taking care
of a few impecuniOus relations within the
last few days. In the South particularly
he has made several appointments that
he would not have made, doubtless, at the
beginning of his administration.
one Of his kindred that he has appoint
ed paymaster in the army is his broth
er-in-law, This brOther-in-law was a
clerk in one of the departments at AL
banv. New York. He is more than 90
years Of age, and in a very few years will
be old enough to be placed on the retired
list. He is, therefore, comfortably fixed
for life.
Another appointment that he made to
please a political friend was that of
young man who failed to keep up with his
class at West Point, and was, therefore,
compelled to leave that institution. He
was given an appointment i'll the army
that places him two grades ahead OF those
Of his class who were able to complete
their course at the military academy.
The injustice Of such an appointment is
too apparent to need explanation. APP
poiutments of that kind are calculated 10
breed discomfort in the army and iniure
its efficiency.
The power of the President of the
United States is very great, and ought 10
be exercised for the benefit of the people
and not in the interest of kindred and pO-
litical creditors. IL is expected. Of
course. that the President will confer
his favors on political friends, and that
he will do what he reasonably and justly
can for his kindred, but III appointing ito
office either his party friends or his rela-
lions he ought to satisfy himself that they
are qualified to discharge the duties OF
the offices to which he appoints them and
that IL their appointments no injustice
will be done to any branch of the public
service.
Mr.. Arthur's personal appointments ap-
pear to have been very promptly con-
firmed. He has endeavOred to make him.
self very agreeable to the Senate, and has
succeeded so well that he has been able
to have his appointments confirmed With
out much trouble.
The Senate. of course, is bound TO look
after the interests OF the people as we'll as
the President is, but Senators are very
slow to oppose the wishes of the Presi-
dent, because they know the time may
come when they may want favors from
him. Because of the disposition OF the
President to saddle his relatives on the
country and his readiness TO meet his
political obligations with offices, and the
hesitation Of the Senate to oppose the
Presidents wishes, a good many incom-
petent and worthless people get into
public places of responsibility and trust.

There doesn't appear to be any reason
to doubt that Gen. Grant is near the end
OF his life. His physicians are thoroughly
acquainted with the disease with which
he is afflicted, and they do not think that
he can live many months. They would
not venture to speak so positively if they
were not satisfied that the conclusion they
have reached is correct.
There may be those who suspect that
the report that the disease with which
Gen. Grant is afflicted will end his life IN
very short time was started for the pur-
pose of securing favorable action on the
bill to place him on the retired list of the
army. and the statement of his physician
that such action might have a beneficial
effect and prolong his life by relieving
him of anxiety is calculated to arouse a
suspicion of that kind, but no one who
knows Gen. Grant, or the physicians who
are attending him, has any doubt of the
genuineness of the published statements.
Gen. Grant has reached time OF Life
when his power to resist disease is only a
fraction of what it was when he was in
the prime Of life. He is an old man, and
his disease is incurable. A younger man
might linger along a couple of years or
more, but the opinion of Gen. Grants
physicians that he has not more than six
months to live, and that he may
die in very few weeks, or
even days, is doubtless correct.
If. therefore, the Grant retirement bill
should be passed by this Congress, it
would not, in all probability, take much
money out Of the Treasury. Its passage,
while it would not meet with much adj
verse criticism, would be a source OF
great satisfaction to a large majority OF
the people of the country, particularly
if Gen. Grant should die very soon. be-
cause the feeling would then be that the
nation had not been ungenerOus to him.
In his present suffering condition, and
with the knowledge that he can never be
a we'll man again, it is probably a mat
ter Of Indifference TO Gen. Grant whether
he lives or dies. His life work is done.
