The Case OF . Clerk.

New YORK, November l5.-Thomas
B. Harris, one of the employees of the
Custom House, was re examined
recently with a view TO promotion.
Notwithstanding the fact that his per
centage was the highest, promotion
was given 20 another man. an honor
ably discharged soldier" to whom il
was claimed the law gives preference.
Harris wrote to President Cleveland to
know why he had been set aside by Q
man far below him in civil service
examination. The case was referred
to Collector Aagone. who, in
turn, referred It to the civil
service commission. Yesterday, their
decision was received. They are Of
the opinion thEtthe preferences are for
admission TO classified service. and do
not extend to promotion therein. They
hold that in competitive examinations

that in case Of this kind the clerk Is
not entitled to compensation during

trial of Police Lieutenant Arnold upon
the charge of giving currency to false

about October LIST. Major Walker, the
witness. testified at that meeting, re-
ferred with qualification to the Commits

estimates and said that he
would like to have men who
knew members Of Congress, go and
explain to them the wants of the de-
partment, and that if this were done,
he expected to get a hundred addi-
tiolal men needed by the service.

SIXTH N. WEED, the Kew York poll
ticisn, is recorded as saying he does not
believe the reverses the Democrats sus-
tanned in the recent elections were
caused by dissatisfaction with Cleye-
land, but that the tariff was responsible
for them. Mr.. Weed knows too much
about politics to believe himself when
be talks in this strain. II it were the
tariff that caused the distress. why were
free trade Democrats defeated in some
places and protectionist Democrats in
others? II only free traders Asd been
left" the reverses might consistently
have been charged TO the tariff issue
but as Democrats of all shades Of ,opin-
ion in segard to the tariff were defeated,
the cause of the disasters must be
looked dor in another direction. Dis
satisfaction with Cleveland accounts for
the disaster which overlook the party
on the ID instant, and il will be politi-
oal miracle if that same dissatisfaction
does not bury the Democratic party out
of sight two years hence.

SOME NEW QUESTIONS.

Noting the suggestion that John
HALEY, the defeated candidate for Dele
gate TO Congress from Idaho, would
make a contest for the seat IN the
House of Representatives. and ask
Congress TO disasproYe the Test Oath
Law, the New York Ti's.s thinks lit is
by no means clear that Congress can
declare it (the sas) null and vcid." 1t
seems that the rule requiring Territorial
Legislatures TO submit their laws to
Congress fer approval or rejection, does
not apply to 4laho, Dakota, Montana
and Wyoming; hence it is urged that
- the only way IN which Congress can
nUllify the Law in question will be by
the passage of a'billGe6ning the quail
feations Of Rstsrs. If this be correct
Mr.. Haley VII stand very. little chance
OF getting the seat On the ground Of the
0ncon-%ltuhcaality of the law which
deprived TIVE thousand citizens OF the
night to FssE, even if, he shall 20 TO

ei&e0s, setting forth thai they would

and government of the United
States; and from denying the elective
franchise 70 citizen ION account of
race, ooler, or pnsTious condition of servi-
tude As the Idaho Legislature did
not ge beyond those restrictions in ,
passing the Test Oath bill, the Law /.
would seem TO be vakd until declared
unconstitutional by q court of com
petent jurisdiction instead Of by Con- ,
gress-hence Mr.. HALEY would have TO
appeal to the courts rather than to the
House OF Representatives for relief. On ,,
the other hand, the House, having alb
solute power in the premises, can, if It
30 desires. take cognizGnce Of the great
wrong that has been done, and without
to Feid the law, declare Mr..
Haley entitled the eeat, from which
action there would be no appeal.
The case premises 20 be interesting
before the end has been reached, and
the result VIII probably be justice. So :
far as honest people are concerned. they
have no sympathy for either HALEY or
Dubois; decent men would be glad If
neiIher Of the gentlemen named could
get the seat in Congress which belongs
to Idaho.

he did 70 avoid scandal.
At the conclusion of Lieutenent
Arnold's testimony. two or three
other witnesses were examined and
then Mayor Walker was called

those 10 which Lieutenant Arnold had
testified. He replied: None what

of Lieutenant Arnold's testimony. he
still wished TO stand by what he had
himself said. He replied: al certainly
