the suspension Of Federal officials.
The Republican Senators caucuscd
on the subject and decided to ask
for papers bearing on removals
and appointments. The Presi-

satisfied with the information con.
tanned in these documents, and
forthwith put on Their war paint.
They got all they asked tor, but
they want more and confessed that
there was an error in the form Of

in which he took the ground that
the Executive branch of the Gov.
ernment could and should be made
