The usual rumors of cabinet quarrels and
changes have not been wanting during Mr..
/ Clevelaud'S adlni nistration, but as the PreSi-
/ dents term of Office draws to a close, the
fact is emphasized that the cabinet has held
| together remarkably WELL All except two
of the original members are yet on duty.
| Secretary Manning is dead, and Secretary
Lamar has been made a supreme court JUS
| tice. The two new members are Messrs.
Fairchild and Dickinson.
| What are Mr.. Cleveland and the members
of his cabinet going to do after they retire
| from office! Reports are plentiful, and
some Of them, doubtless, are correct. 1t is
impossible to say what Mr.. Cleveland will
do. According to the gossips he will settle
| in New y ork Buffalo, w shington or Bal
timore and practice law, and the latest re-
port is that he will return to New Jersey,
his native state Wherever he finally To-
cates-and it will most probably be New
York or Buffalo-he is going first to take a
good long vacation. Since he entered poll
tics his life has been a very busy one.
From the office of sheriff he was promoted
in such rapid succession to those of mayor,
governor and President that he has had
very little time at his disposal, and it is due
to his wonderful capacity for work that he
has stood the strain. He will have earned
vacation.
Probably several members of his cabinet
will retire permanently from politics. Sec
rotary Bayard is one of them. He will
return to Wilmington, and as Senator Sauls-
bury's successor will be a republican, and as
Senator Gray's term will not expire until
1893, the secretary has no political future
in view. Attorney General Garland an
nounced some time ago that he would be a
private citizen the remainder of his life.
Secretary Fairchid went to Washington
against his desire, and he will return to
the practice of law in Albany, and probably
renounce politics with feeling of relief
Secretary Endicott will go home to Massa-
chuSetts, but he will first visit Mr.. and Mrs
Joseph Chamberlain in England. He is IN
derstood to be Indifferent to future political
honors.
Three of the members have probable
political future. They are Secretaries
Whitney and Villas and Postmaster General
Dickinson. Mr.. Whitney is going to spend
several years in England, and then open a
law office in New York, provided he isn't
nominated for governor of that state in
1884, elected by a decisive majority, and
run for President in 1892. Mr.. Villas is
popular in Wisconsin, where he made $40
600 year at the bar before he became a
cabinet member. His political ambition
has not departed. Mr.. Dickinson mas re-
ceived proposition to go to New York,
but he is very likely to return to Detroit,
and he may ask for the democratic nomina-
ton for vice president in 1892 In the mean
time, however, he would have to put the
Michigan democrats in better shape
Mr.. Cleveland and his cabinet will retire
to private life with the best wishes of the
democrats, and with the consciousness that
they have performed well their respective
duties. The Cleveland administration will
go down in history as one of the cleanest
and ablest the country has ever had, and
future students of politics will wonder that
the people should have turned their backs
on it to recall to power a party which had
become thoroughly corrupt during its
supremacy of nearly a quarter of CEN
fury.
