OPEN EXECUTIVE SESSIONS.

II is not so certain that the Senate
should sit in executive session with
open doors, though If the question
were put to vote of the people it
would doubtless carry by very large
majority. There is a natural aversion
in the American mind to anything par
taking of the nature of "star.chnmbcr'
proceedings In legislative and judicial
bodies. but after all il Is more of a
hereditary sentiment than wcll-dc-
fined conviction. The grand jury Is II
notable illustration of its want of con.
sistency with itself.
We can readily suppose cases where
the consideration of changes in Office
would work great and needless wrong
TO individuals without conserving the
public interests in the slightest degree
Ii would please the morbidly curious
crowds in the galleries and have the
effect of scattering wanton personalities
broadcast over the'country, with more
or less scandal intermixcd; but where
is the good TO be accomplished in com.
pensation for so many accompanying
evils?
Again, the same reasoning that is
urged for open sessions of the Senate
would apply to open sessions of the
Cabinet. And why not to the entire
removal of privacy from the functions
of the President himself?
If it be assumed that the Senate
should spread the appointment or re
moval of John Smith upon the table
and proceed to its dissection with the
same publicity that it would handle an
appropriation bill, it can with equal
justice be urged that all the facts by
which the action of the President was
determined should also be made public
1t would thus become part of his
business in making nominations or
suspensions to see that the reasons in
each instance were dealt out to the
newspapers that the whole country
might know what they were. The
one proposition is no more absurd than
the other
In all governments-free as we'll as
despotic-there must be some State
secrets. There are condolences to be
kept and precautions to be taken in
public rs in private business. There
are many consultations and conferences
necessary in the management of the af-
fairs of the people that the people
would gain nothing by knowing and
the disclosure Of which might operat1
injuriously to the interests of the
people.
Suppose, further, ahat the President
in the case of John Smith should see
fit to make confidential communica.
tion TO the Senate is there any man
who cannot see that the discussion of
its contents in open session would be q
brutal and objectionable breach of
good faith Yet, what else could the
Senate do were the proposed change
made?
1t is therefore plain that the open
executive session would operate as a
complete estoppel of intercourse be-
tween the President and Senate in re-
-, gard to all matters which the Execu-
tive, as an honest official and honor
able man, might not be at liberty to
communicate to the people at large.

Why He Went Down stairs.

heard story the other night about an
actor whose name is supposed to be known
to every one who can read print. l will
call him Smith. Smith was rooming at the
Sturtevant House, New York, last week.
He came home at about 2 a. IN. very full.
AS he rolled into the Office the porter asked
him If he would not take the elevator.
"No (hic), no. I'll walk (hic) up sthairs;
but vanish you to be shure an' call me at
10 o'clock tmorer mornin', sure.n
Smith commenced to go up the marble
stairway. lie arrived at the tenth step all
right, when he slipped and landed on the
floor below all in heap. Not at all dis
concerted he picked himself up walked de-
liberately to the DESK and said, with Il
profound drunken solemnity:
81 just came down sthairs (hic) OK
pressly to tell you (hic) to b'shure au' call
me (hic) at 10 O'Clock t'moTer. = Boston
