THE presidents inaugural address is
not lengthy one, although it contains
excellent matter. On the two que tions
in whose treatment by the executive the
people have deep interest, the address
is somewhat Indefinite. That he favors
a reduction of the present tariff is evil
dent, but that protection is favorite
doctrine with him, one may also gather
from the address. The anxious Office
seeker will not have his anxiety relieved
or his hopes dashed By the presidents
remarks on civil service. The address is
q strong one and like everything Cleve-
land has written since he became pres
idential candidate, it is highly creditable
to him.

PERHAPS never did a chief executive

PERHAPS never did a chief executive
of the nation resume his place as pri
vate citizen bearing with him a more
kindly feeling from the people generally
than did President Arthur. The pre-
dominant faction in the republican party
nominated him from purely selfish mo-
tives, and as a concilatory measure.-
They desired his strength more than
they did his election. The reaction
from stalwartism ran to the opposite ex-
treme and there was q whimsical affecta-
ton of responsibility, condition by no
means favorable to man like Arthur
who had candor enough to treat politics
as politician and not in the dilettante
fashion then prevailing among republ:-
cans. This blunt man was unfashiona-
BILE and alone and it was en- regle to taunt
and upbraid him for his want of affinity
with the crowd in which he was thrust.
His comparatively friendless position
called forth no magnaminity from bis I'M
feeling critics and he was denounced be.
cause the emergency for which the office
was created which be filled, arose during
his incumbency. During all this trying
ordeal he conducted himself with dig
nifty. 1t was not resignation but eIeva-
ton of character which seemed to make
him impervious to the shafts of petty
malice.
Elevated to q position to which his
most sanguine hopes could never have
aspired, he worked unostentatiously and
with entire Inconsistencies of self. He
is not brilliant man and he did not seek
to give his administration that character.
He was dramatic in nothing and yet in
quiet way his administration developed
questions of intsrnatiolal Importance
which in the near future will occupy the
attention of our most gifted statesmen.
He did not use his high position to pun
ish enemies or reward friends though the
devotion of the one as well as the bitter
ness of the other would justify differ
ent course. He did not rut his con-
science in the keeping of party except in
the case of Fitz John Porter when he
sank the dignity of the cfice in
the partisanship of the man and
resorted TO unworthy artifice to secure a
victory for his party friends at the ex-
pense of justice to . wronged soldier.
Arthur did not make much history but
he gave the country what it needed most,
q conservative administration.

THE Sentinel should not make an
extract from paper unaccompanisd by
the notifications of that extract. The
Pilot would be favorable to the candi-
dacy of Judge Taylor but for the partisan
character given it by the republican press
Of the state. It is not Judge Taylor's
fitness republican papers consider so
much as his party affiliations. In view
of this fact democrats in voting for hin

IT is said the republicans have Matched
out a scheme whereby they can retain
the Offices. The news comes from as
good an authority as the N. Y. Tribune.
The tenure of Office law proven is the
president from removing federal officer
while the senate is in session without the
consent of that body. The senate pro-
poses to adjourn to fixed day and thus
technically remain in session and prevent
the president from removing officers even
for cause.

There is chance for retrenchmsnt here
to which some reformer might address
