THE Philadelphia Press finds the poltti-
cal situation 30 dull just now that u nas
undertaken to give the Democrats OF Penn
sylyanis lift towards recognition In the
Gift of Q place on the supreme bench OF the
United States. Tho Press says: "Only
one state in 1884 gave Cleveland more votes
than he received In Pennsylvania, ard yet
with the single exception Of the solicitor
generslship this state holds noappointmen'
of any consequence whatever under the
administration. 1t has no cabinet place, nc
foreign mission and no member OF the
supreme court. 1t has been steadily
ignored by tho president and in way that
has become painfully obstrusive. This is
certainly not because Pennsylvania ia a
Republican state Massachusetts, Michigan
and Wisconsin, all Republican states, have
cabinet places; two OF them have leading
foreign missions, and the Democratic vote
OF all these together is but a few thousand
in excess OF that given by Pennsy lvania
alone. Vermont, whose vote for Cleveland
was 375, 900 less than he received In this
state, has tho English mission, while Ohio,
Illinois and even Rhode Island and
Nevada have been favored with important
foreign appointment"
Our Philadelphia Republican contem-
porary inclines TO the view that Judge

OF the Press for his selection arises from the
desire to see his present seat filled by q
