The Editor of the Independent
has asked for the opinion of certain
distinguished gentlemen as to the best
mode of treating those Democrats,
who are found in Office, after the 4th
Of March, 1889. It prints the views of
three. Hon. Dormon B. Eaton, Ex-
Civil Service commissioner, gives his
views at length, in five columns closely
written. Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, re-
spends briefly in letter of some thirty
lines. Hon. John J. ingalls,, President
Protein of the United States Senate
comes to the point in note of ten
lines, and as he voices our views pre-
cisely, we will reprint it. There is
more between the lines than the casual
observer may see, but they will answer
the purpose of defining our position on
the matter, and if any one sees further
into the mind of the distinguished gen.
tlemen, regarding the sympathetic
feeling he may have toward Harrison
and Morton's administration, he is
welcome to the comfort his penetra-
tion may bring him. Mr.. ingalls, says:
''If there will be ''more than forty
thousand Democrats in Office on the
4th of March next" about which I
know nothing, they should all be re-
moved before the going down Of the
sun on that day, and more than forty
thousand Republicans appointed in
their stead. What tie attitude of the
administration will be, I have neither
opinion nor information.

THE disastrous confagration at p

THE disastrous confagration at Po-
comoke City last Thursday is sugges-
tive only of what is bound to occur
sooner or later at Snow Hill, and all
other places crowded together so close
ly as to resemble one large structure
and with no adequate protection
against fire if indeed there be any
possible, where the condition Of things
is as they are in many towns like the
ones above mentioned. The only
remedy for the evil, in our opinion, is
to remodel the towns, either by WIDEN
ing the streets, or else by tearing down
the old fire traps and making it obliga-
tory on property holders to erect
only brick buildings in the busi-
ness portion of the town. From
the Insurance Companies stand
point, experience will prove that
there is no rate adequate to cover the
hazard of continuous frame rows,

erty, and as they are generally the
heaviest losers, they can at any time
largely assist in bettering things.
Whether they will or will not is a
matter chiefly for their own co nsidera-

MUCH interest is felt at present in
the probable elevation of Mr.. John
Wanamaker to a place in Harrison's
cabinet, presumably that of Post-Mas-
ter-General, and the press OF the coun-
try seems to differ somewhat, as to
whether Mr.. Wanamaker's somewhat
unusual activity in the campaign was
due to the desire for political prefer
ment. or whether it was dictated by a
sincere desire for the welfare of the
whole country.
Mr.. Wanamaker himself is probably
the only individual who can solve this
problem, but while there is not certain
ty there is at least much data upon
which to base an opinion, and like
others we have ours. We believe that
Mr.. Wanamaker concientiously believ-
ed that his business interests, which are
large, would be better advanced, under
an administration with Protective ten
denotes than one guided by policy Of
Tariff Reform, and while we believe
him to be an honest upright man both
in his public and private life, we do
not believe that patriotism so for &C.
lipsed weightier matters with him as
the Springfield Republican seems to
suppose. On the other hand, we for the
same reason, feel that he can be ac-
quilted of even desiring or working
for a cabinet portfolio, and at the
same time, we are ready to admit that
so far as we have yet heard there has
been no name mentioned for Post Mas
ter General that pleases us more. and
we would be glad to see him appointed.

both State and Federal courts. to
change the result in Virginia. Ben
Butler and ex-senator Henderson are
said to have advised this course. Lit
tie g Billy Malone" is happy over this
determination on the part Of Quay and
Dudley. 1t will prevent, for time at
least, his return to the obscurity which
be 50 richly deserves, and he also hopes
to make this case peg upon which to
hang his expectation of future favors
from the Harrison administration.
There is new arrival at the house
of Col. Lamont. 1t is girl, and has
been named Francis Folsom in honor
Of Mrs. Cleveland.
Mr.. Cleveland has some very good
army berths to dispose of as soon as
he gets chance to decide who shall
have them. There are five appoints
ments in the staff, all very desirable
positions, also three cadets-at-large to
send to West Point.
1t seems that every Republican Con-
gressman who arrives here has candi-
date for Harrison's Cabinet, and will
be mad if his man is not select ted. A
little figuring will show how many
mad men there will be in Congress
when the Cabinet is announced.
It is said here that Senator Sherman
believes that Governor Alger, OF
Michigan, prevented his getting the
Republican nomination for Presi-
dent, and that he is determined that
Alger shall not go into Harrison's
Cabinet if he can prevent it, and he
thinks he can,

success, polit ically, is dissension among
those who are the partakers OF the
benefits likely to arise from it, but IL
seldom happens, that it follows as
closely on the heels of victory, as is IN

FROM WASHINGTON.

Mr.. Cleveland and all the members
Of his Cabinet have gone into tempo
rary seclusion in order to prepare their
annual reports for Congress. These re-
ports will differ from those usually
made as much as they will give gener-
al resume of the Democratic admins
tration of the affairs of each of the Gov
ernmental Departments for four years.
Copies of these reports and of the
Presidents coming message based
thereon should be carefully read by
every Democrat in the country.
The President has taken a hand in
the dispute between Senator Black
burn and Judge Rucker. He has no
recollection of ever having seen Judge
Rucker, and is positive that he never
used any such language as Rucker as
cribes to him. The weight of COM
mon sense is all on Mr.. Cleveland's
side in this matter. Does any one
suppose for a moment, even allowing
that Mr.. Cleveland had doubts about
the sincerely of Governor Hills and
Tammany Halls support, which he
never at any time had, nor has he
now, that he would have given ex-
preston of those doubts to a perfect
stranger, as Judge Rucker was, FIVE
days previous to the election. Not at
all. This disposes of the question at
issue between Senator Blackburn and
Judge Rucker and proves the latter to
have been i'll the wrong, but it does
not wipe out the hard things they
have said about each other. It is said
that a challenge has already been sent.
Everybody here is anxious to know
what the outcome will be. Both men
are expected here shortly.
Mr.. Morton, the Vice-President-
elect, paid Washington an unexpected
visit last week. He came ostensibly
to look after his real estate invest
ments here, but before leaving he held
several conferences with prominent
members of his party.
Hon. Perry Belmont, recently ap-
pointed Minister to Spain, is here to
receive his final instructions from the
State Department before going to his
post. It has been intimated that Mr..
Blaine would attempt to prevent the
confirmation Of Mr.. Belmont's nomi-
nation by the Senate, in order to be
revenged upon that gentlemen for the
clever manner in which he, as chair
man of the House committee on for
eign affairs, exposed Mr.. Blaine's
manipulation of South American af-
fairs during the Shepherd investiga-
tion some years ago. Perhaps Mr..
Blaine would like very much to do so,
but the fact must be remembered that
there are quite number of Republi-
can Senators who heartily dislike Mr..
Blaine, and who would much rather
do him an injury than favor. Mr..
Belmont is sure to be confirmed,
whether Mr.. Blaine tries to prevent it
or not.
Newspaper men are pleased at the
selection of Mr.. Halford, Editor
of the Indianapolis Journal, for Presi-
dent-elect Harrison's private secretary.
Mr.. Halford will be fortunate if he
succeeds in making himself as popular
as is Col. Lamont.
One would think the Republicans
ought to be satisfied with the result of
the recent election. But they are not.

the street, "want the earth and all

key, and oyster sauce, or it may be-
cranberry sauce, or again Turkey with
out sauce, or once more no Turkey at
all. Still everyone ought to be thank
full for something and perhaps they
are, that is everyone except the Tur-
key. In a relative way, and by COM
parison, one can always be thankful.
The person who is in the full possession
Of health and strength, should be thank
full he is not sick and weak, while the

satisfied in the knowledge, that people
must have it no matter what is the
price, and so his profits are secure.

lie also, the Subscribers and advertis-
ers, can obviously find much cause for
thanksgiving on this question, seeing
that, since there are not more papers.
they may possibly have a little left
from the demands of the papers for
useless and wastful, advertising. We
might 60 on indefinitely, but that in so
doing we would take away our right to

patrons after Bsading the above, can
be thankful this article is no longer.
Our moral is simply this. Any one can
find much to b6 thankful for If his or
her condition in life is compared with
either that of humanity in general, or
with "the might have beenn of him or
herself. Regrets are useless and con-
ducive to worse state of things next
year; while a reasonable contentment
with the things that be, may result in
a happiness, not measured by what we
really have, but how we use it. Let
us then all be truly thankful.
