To Our Readers.

BY a business change recently made the
individual whose name appears at the
head of this column, becomes the editor
and publisher of the REPORTER, and Mr.
E. p. Mayo, so we'll and favorably known
to the people Of Somerset County ant
many other sections Of the State, IT tires
He has been closely identified with tho
interests of the REPORTER since 1878 and
and for four years, 1881 to 1884 inclusive
had the entire editorial and business man
agement. He is a newspaper man, born
and bred, and we predict that he will not
long remain out of the editorial harness.
Our readers will miss his sharp and ready
pencil.
1t is perhaps well for us to say at this
time in assuming the conduct OF the RE-
PORTER, that we are here, not to make
promises of great things to be performed,
but to give our readers just as good pa
per as we have capacity to make. Our
connection with the REPORTER dates
October l, 1873, since which time we have
had business interest in it and with the
exception Of four years, editorial connec-
ton herewith.
We ask the patronage of the public and
hope to contribute to its prosperity, wei
fare and happiness.

a Dead Lock.

\ dead lock between the Senate and
the President is probable on nominations
made where suspensions were made to
create vacancies, the Senate has asked
the administration for papers in such
cases and the reply was, that the pnblic
service would not be benefited by com
pliancc with the order. Taking into ac-
count the public announcements made by
Mr.. Cleveland when he wanted votes
and his letter to Mr.. G. W. Curtis it
seems very reasonable that he should
give the information asked inasmuch as
removals were to &c made for cause only.
The President may be technically right
in maintaining the dignity and preroga-
tive of his office, but refusing to honor
this requisition indicates that he has no
reasons for making the removals that
will bear sunlight, and that they were
made simply and only to make room for
his own party friends. The chief iniquity
of the thing is that there have been pre-
tensions otherwise.
