With 4 number Of other horsemen,

when the animals got away, TO get a better

down the home stretch on the mile, Elexor
and Kansas lead, there being an interval OF
probably fifty yards between them and Ihe
bird horse, Judge Spotiord, who was in
urn closely followed BY AloUise. When
he leading horses passed the stand Mr..
HUvly sprang down into the track, and en-
ieavored TO run across toward the grand
stand, thinking, no doubt, he could get
across before the rear horses came
up. If this was his idea he mlstook the
instance, for he had barely made half a dozen

THE SENATE AND THE APPOINT
MENTS.

Apparently there is disposition on the
part of some Senators to make general raid
upon the Pre- sident's appointments irrespec
tive of their character. Such course,
would, we believe, be disapproved by the
country and result disastrously to the party
whose representatives were responsible for
it. There is one, and only one, proper course
to pursue in this matter and that is to con-
slider each and every appointment upon its
merits Any policy that seeks to dispose of
the nominations in any other way is to be re-
probated. So far as the President has
treated tho public offices as public trusts his
course sheuld be approved and his appoint
ments sustained When he has treated them
simply as spoils to reward Democratic poll
ticians, and fitness has been subordinated to
political activity his nominations should be
rejected, and he be brought back to obedience
to the principles laid down in his civil SER
vice reform letter.
But the people want to see no merely par
tisan wrangle between the President and the
Senate. They want the appointees closely
scrutinized, with a view to seeing that the
offices are filed with honest and capable
men, who are not obnoxious to their fellow
citizens by reason of extremely offensive
partisanship or anything else, and in case of
doubt they want the benefit of the doubt CIV

and the President given chance to select

COLLECTOR CHASE

One monumental case, that no amount of

cans, is that of Tabulator Chase, collector OF
internal revenue in Portland. There is not,
probably, another appointment to come be-
fore the Senate more deserving Of prompt
heroic treatment than this, and we doubt if a

ONCE IN A WHILE THEY TELL THE TRUTH
Boston journal
It is not rabid Republican paper of the
North, intent on waving the bloody shirt
and keeping alive sectional animosities,
but southern Democratic paper, the Angus
ia (Ga) Chronicle, which observes thai
nothing is so cheap as human life in some
Southern States and nothing so uncommon
as the proper punishment of white assas
SINS In unguarded moments even South
ern Bourbon paper sometimes tells the truth
as to the relations of the races and the deal
ings of the courts in the South. We have
known the Charleston News and Courier to
do it, but it was good while ago, when nc
election was pending.

The Concord Monitor alleges that the now
famous ''valued policy law of New Hamp-
shire grew out of controversy between the
Hon. Frank Jones and the insurance compa-
MES that had policies on the Rockingham
House, owned by Mr.. Jones, when it was de-
stroyed by fire. There was long and bitter
wrangle between Mr. Jones and the compa-
MES, the former insisting on the payment of
the full amount of the policies, though the
loss was not total, and the latter refusing for
a long time to pay anything more than the
actual loss, though finally rather than have
law suit with Mr.. Jones all but one of
them did pay the face of the policies. To
punish the insurance companies against
whom he had become greatly incensed Mr..
-Jenes devised and secured the passage of
this law. TWAS rushed through the Senate
under a suspension Of rules without any de-
bate whatever. In the House it encountered
considerable opposition. Two reports came
from the insurance committee upon it, the
majority reporting in favor of its passage
and the minority recommending indefinite
postponement. The bill passed the last day
of the session. Instead of furnishing the in
surance companies as was Mr.. Jones's inten-
ton, the law seems to be Furnishing the peo
pie of New Hampshire, Mr.. Jones among
them.

The caucus of Republican Senators, which
is to be held before the session begins, to con-
slider this matter, will be watched with in
terest. We have little doubt that large
majority of the Senators will be found to
be in favor of treating the Presidents APP
pointments upon their merits, to be confirm
ed or rejected, according to the eircum-
stances of each particular case. This is the
right way to treat them, and, being the right
way, it is the polite way

have been better if President Cleveland had
omitted his Thanksgiving proclamation.
Such things, it says, should be left to the

shutting out the office seekers. 1t was a
very appropriate document.

Wilkinson deserves his fate. The crime he
originally planned to commit was burglary,
bit the fact that he armed himself with
deadly weapon shows that he had deliber-
ately resolved to commit the crime of muir

Senator Allison, who has been one of the
most influential friends of the silver dollar,
thinks it may be possible to pass at the COM
ing session of Congress an act providing
that no more silver dollars shall be coined
for specified number of months or years,
leaving the present act in force otherwise, so
that the coinage of the silver dollar will be
resumed at the end of the specified time
without further legislation. Such temporary
suspension of the silver coinage, he thinks,
might be useful as means of pcrsuading
European governments to consent to an in
ternational agreement on the subject.

Mr.. j. S. Berry, postmaster at Wayne in
Kennebec county, sent courteous note to
Mr.. j. G. Stinehfeld who has been appoint
ed his successor, offering him the use Of his
office until he could equip one of his own
Mr.. Stinchfeld wrote back an insulting note
declining Mr.. Berry's offer, in which occur:
the following lucid paragraph:
Had not witnessed for myself the couch vol
and your especial political associates and adVer
saries have made in common, and lay coiled there
a homogeneous body, at any moment to strike me
with poisoned fangs, should have been in the
interest of society, the advancement of moral and
social influence in the community, and my OWL
ever ready and willing disposition to forgive on
injury, most happy to accept the kind offer of
your Office and your assistance in installing me in
the position which feel so deeply the response
bility OF assuming.
Evidently the great honor of being APP
pointed postmaster at Wayne flew to Mr..
Stinchfeld's head and quite got away with it.
The fatal mistake the New Age makes
in discussing the question whether the
Rev. Mr.. Bellows's case comes within the
provisions of the civil service law is in re-
garding him and describing him as the con
fidential clerk or private secretary of the
collector. No such officer as that is recog.
nized in. the Portland custom house. In some
custom houses the case is different. Thus
the collector of Boston is allowed private
secretary, and of course his appointment
does not come within the provisions of the
civil service law, for by rule XIX private
secretaries are specially exempted. Mr. Bel
lows is the clerk of cutoms. He has been de-
tailed to attend to the collectors private cor
respondence. To cover his case the rule
should read confidential clerks, and clerks
who may be detailed to attend to the collec-
tors correspondence are exempted from the
law" But this is not the way the law does
read.
