There il a great deal OF unnecessary nonsense
in the talk about a rupture between the Presi-
dent and Senate over the question of appoint
by some of the republican Senators is not hid
In mystery. Nor need the President be shy in
stating frankly the facts. What the republican
Senators are trying To get at ia an admission
that large numbers of office-hoiders have been
removed for political reasons. This il notori-
ously 40. and il is so with the country's consent
It 8 rather cheap TO try to make party capital
out Of the administrations course in this re-
spec That many changes have been made on
known-and there is an abundance of indig-
nant democratic testimony to that effect-that
the Presidents policy has been very conserva-
tive, and has been in line with the best senti-
ment of the country.
A common sense construction of the Consti-
Triton limits the veto of the Senate on appoint
Iuents to the question OF personal fitness. 1t
surely was not contemplated that the Senate
could block all changes in the civil service
which happened TO be distastefal politically to
q majority of the chamber. Such q claim
would not be tolerated by the country, and the
President In resisting it would have the support
OF the thoughtful element In the republican
party as well "a the united and Jealous help of
the democrats. Hence he can afford to take
positive and open stand in this matter. IL the
Senators ask for reasons let him follow his
famous advice and .'ten the truth" Let him
say II made the change for political considera-

A Memorable Scene.

I'm The report of President Arthur
funeral the Now York Hcrald give
Che following ~, Of graphic dcscrip-
ton:
And now there occurr ed mcmor
able scene.
After Dr. Rainsford had read the
lesson from Corinthians, with rare
elegance and deep foclina. Mr.. Nor
can gave out th hymn, Nearer My
God to Thee
All the conUeg ION rose, and n
the familiar notes burst from choir
and organ pipe some sympathet
spirits i'm the great gatheringcEhia
mp the strain.
The movement was infectious.
The melody flew from mouth to
mouth. old mems voices Quaverod,
young mems voices yiln ed, WON
ems voices thrilled the air, nnd a
strange wave of feeling swept over
the crowd, made every heart beat
faster, and brought tears TO many
an eye. 1t was a memorable scene.
There was the martial power of
the Nation represented 10y the lead
crs of its armies; there was its
might upon the waters, personated
in the presence of its hardy mariners.
There were Senator'S over whose
deliberations the departed had pre-
sided; there were Cabinet officers
whose acts he had directed, and there
were ministers of foreign powers
with whom he had held high diplo-
matte Intercourse.
There was his successor in the
Presidency, Grover Cleveland, look
ing grave, as if he were thinking of
The fate to which even Presidents
must bow there was the chief of the
State, which nc had reflected honor
upon, Governor Hill, bending his
head upon hi, hands, and there was
the chief magistrate of the city
where Inc made his home.
There ON tie one side was that
great leader whose fortunes he had
followed and supported for 50 mnay
years before his own destiny had
carried him beyond thc highest am
billions he had conceived, Roscoe
Conhling.quitc alone stiff, >tatuesque
cold, but with look deep down in
his eyes that bctokeued the revival
of old memories and the birth of n
new sorrow.
There, too, upon the other side.
was that other eminent leader, with
whom Arthur had twice done battle
james c. Blaine, pale, grave,
thoughtful, simple, magnetic. W hat
rccollection> must he not have had
Of that Tiantic contest where he
had won for himself a partial victory
rom defeat, a victory whereby the
lead alone had proved gamer, or
of that other victory wherein nc had
uimphcd over his new rival, only
himself i'm turn, to taste the bitter
ness of defeat
But There, above all, were those
lifelong friend, to whom Arthur
was SO true friend there, above
all, were the sisters whom he loved.
and there were the children whom
ho cherished.
And now for the first time tAe
grcat heart did not beat responsive
10 SO many hearts that beat for him.
Now for the first time he lay cold
and dull while colleagues, rivals
friends, sisters, children pressed
about him.
