WASHINGTON NOTES.
Points Political, Personal and Pertinent.
Who is to succeed Chief Justice
Waite? That's what every body wants
to know and what Mr.. Cleveland alone
has the power to decide. 1t is, owing to
the present peculiar status of the eight
associate Justices Of the Supreme Court,
the most important single question per-
haps that any President has had to
decide.
~
More than one impul tant question
which is likely to come before the Court
for action, the Justices are known to be
evenly divided, which practically gives
Mr.. Cleveland an opportunity to make
a. 90. IA, l,,.p
for the position who thinks as he doas.
~
Many men in different sections of the
country have been favorably mentioned
for the honor; it has even been suggest
ed that MIR. Cleveland should resign, and
that Secretary Bayard, who would sue.
coed him as President, should appoint
Mr. Cleveland Chief Justice. This ar
rangement would be an admirable one
were 1t not for the fact that the people
of the country seem to have made up
their minds that Mr.. Cleveland's S services
| are needed at the White House four
years longer from the fourth of March
next.
!
From the best information that can be
obtained at present, either Postmaster
General Dickinson or Speaker Carlisle
will be made Chief Justice. But in any
event the country may safely trust the
VIII de matter to Mr.. Cleveland. He will
take his own time and select the very
best man for the place. He has male no
serious mistakes in his important APP
pointments up TO this time and it is not
likely to break hisrecord now, on the eve
of his re election.
