Mr.. Quay's unftness for the office of state

nearly twenty years; and during almost all
of his official residence at Harrisburg, he

an offensive member of the pardon board

"The theory of its enemies that 1t would fill

answer in the fact that the average age of all

ing an average period Of nearly IA years of

bred men would monopolize appointments is
answered by the fact that of 5,566 applicants

cation was as follows: 800 only in common

The presldsnt and the siormon..

The president Is understood to DO dis
satisfied with the way In which the Utah
commission has executed its duties. Its
somewhat tentative, timid methods arc attri-
butcd 10 the fact that the members Of the
commission are all old mon. The president
thinks that the work Of the commission
ought to be more vigorously done. He re-
CARDS polygamy as an unmixed evil which
ought to be stamped out, and he does not
think the commission does It's part In the at
tempt to effect that end. Ii Is understood
that after his vacation the president will re-
organize the Utah commission, with view
10 more effective work on its part. There
are now three Republicans and two Demo
Gratis on the commission. The two Demo
| crats are said to be no more efficient thar
| the Republicans. They will probably al
| be removed, and younger and more vigorous
men appointed In their places. The presi
| dent is determined that all the anti-poly
gamy laws shall be honestly and earnestl,
| enforced.

Women In The church.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
West Chester reports that women are to be
admitted as members OF the vestry off Prot
estant Episcopal church in that place, though
heretofore denied the right The new ruling
is not much of an advance, but is in the right
direction. A very large share of church work
is done by women, and it is no more than
right that they should share in the admin
istration of church affairs. The Hayes Me-
chanic's Home, which is to be opened next
fall, is to recognize the principle of giving
office to workers. Instead OF having merely
advisory committee of ladies to do the work
of male directors, one-half of the board of
managers Is to be composed of women.

In the whirl of time books take some
queer turns. Volumes over which our fore
fathers pored in delight fail to attract us of
the present day, and so it will be with us and
our descendants. The value of books, too,
from generation to generation is shrouded in
doubt; very frequently tho fanciest prices
having been paid for works deemed rare that
could not stand the test of time. 1t is related
that at recent book sale Poulson's "Holder-
ness Collections" was knocked down to a
purchaser for the modest SUN of about S26.
After the sale the latter informed the aston
ished company that he had some years ago
purchased the same copy for nearly &, 500
and sold it--doubtless at an advance-to the
late owner az whose sale he had now repur-
chased it AS a book sale oddity this Incl
dent is too strange not to be true.

The federal appointments made yester-
day are generally good. Ex-Lieutenant
General Dorsheimer for district attorney
In the New York city district is marked
advance upon the kind of men usually
chosen for such positions With good
character and excellent ability, he has en-
joyed professional experience which win
enable him to go to work at once with full
knowledge Of what is to be done and how
best TO do IL. He was the biographer and
is the personal friend of the president and,
it is presumed, will carry out his we'll
known ideas in dealing with the questions
which will come before him.
General Martin T. McMahon, for mar
shal of the same district, is an appointment
still more worthy of commendation, as the
type of men usually selected for such posi-
| tions has been low. But this is changed in
the present case by the unquestioned char
acter and demonstrated fitness Of the ap
pointee. There will be no illegal use o.
great power while M. Il. Mcmahon is {
marshal of the United States.
B. F. Jonas, ex-senator from Louisiana
the new collector of the port at New Or
leans, has been dealt with fairly according
