ANOTHER CABINET RdN.EL.

A new cabinet department has been
created by congress-that of the "de-
partment of agriculture" The presi-
dent has approved the bill creating this
Office and has named Norman ]. Col
man, of Missouri, as the one to act as
secretary of that Office, and the senate
has confirmed him. This will make
the eighth member to constitute
presidents cabinet and President-elect
Harrison will have the honor of naming
the first one to hold this position for a
regular four years term. Mr.. Col
man will, no doubt, go out of Office on
Monday, March 4th, next.
Tie establishment of the new de-
partment seems to have been rather IN
response to sentiment than to fill an
actual want in the machinery of govern
ment. 1t is compliment to the
farmers. The former bureau of agrl-
culture under the department. of the
interior has filled all actual needs, and
indeed the elevation of its head to a
cabinet rank was not regarded with
favor by preceding commissioners or
by the present incumbent, who will
pass into history as the first to enjoy
ira honors. But a sentiment was
widespread in the country that SO i'm
portant an element as the agricultural
industry should be represented IN the
presidents council by an officer OF
equalrank with others composing IT.
The only actual effect will be to III
crease the cost of maintaining the de
partment and add to its political i'm
portance.
This is the first addition to the cabl
net counselors since 1S49, when the
department Of the interior was estab
lished. The original cabinet was com
posed of the secretaries of state, wal
and the treasury, with the attorney
general. The acts creating these po
sitions were dated: secretary OF war
August Z, 1889; secretary OF the
treasury, September 2, 1888; secretary
of state, September Is, 1889; attorney
general, September "a, 1889. An ac
temporarily establishing the postofiic'
department was also passed September
/. %, 1889, but it was not until May 8
1894, that it was made a permanen
creation. Even then the postmaster
general was not cabinet official. HI
was supposed to be subordinate 0
the treasury department. Presiden
Jackson in 1929 invited the then in
cumbent to attend cabinet meeting
and since that date the postmaster
general has been by custom membe
of the cabinet.
The navy department was create
April 80, 1898. Prior to that tim
the naval branch of the military servlc
was under the secretary of war. Th
6rst secretary Of the navy was Georg
Cabot of Massachusetts. After tn:
there was no additions to the cabint
until the interior department was e
sahlished, with Thomas Ewing
Ohio as the first secretary,
