The committee on foreign affairs,
adopted the resolution of Edmunds, on
the Panama canal. The report was
signed by all the republican members.
The resolution afiirms the public Mon
roe Doctrine. 1t is claimed by the
committee that if the Monroe Doctrine
allows foreign nations to construct the
Panama canal, it will be violation of
the Monroe doctrine. If any nation
owned the Panama canal, they would
either by force or by treaty get pos
session of the small republics. History
has proven that where nation ex-
ponds money they will soon follow
with power. And if France should
build the canal it would soon be bought
by England or some other power of
Europe, and thus becomes great adj
vantage in the time of war. If this be
allowed we abandon the principles
which we have maintained for the last
seventy years.

is bound to use this power 10 the ut
most. There are certain considerations
of justice, fairness and prudence that
it is best for him to keep in mind, no
matter how much pressure may e
brought to bear upon him by the hungry
and thirsty. His obligations both to
his party and TO his country are such
that he can not afford to inaugurate
a process of I.asty..and far-reaching re-
mOval. The conditions admonish him
that h can hope to make his Admin
istration "a success only Dy proceeding
slowly in this matter, and thus avoid
ing the mistakes and misfortunes
which may so easily ensue where the
patronage is distributed according to
rapid AMI unreasona BILE methods Pres
ident Harrison has had experience
which qualities him to take wise and
practical view of the situation; and
there is good reason to believe that he
is not wanting in the courage which is
necessary to the maintenance of a CON-
servative policy with respect to this
most perplexing and important ques-
ton. AS he says, it will proba bly, not
be IN his power to attain the ideal of
excellence in his management of the
civil service; but he can at least i'm
prove upon the work of his immediate
predecessor, and the way to do that is
to proceed cautiously and take plenty
of time for the investigation of all
doubtful points.

The Tenure of Office.


1t is evidently the intention of Pres
ident Harrison to permit all capa BILE
Democratic officials to serve out the
terms for which they may have been
appointed. That is to say, in all cases
where an officer has been commission
ed for q given period, he will not be
disturbed before the expiration of such
peoiod, unless it shall appear that he
ia incompetent or unworthy. The
country will heartily indorse this poll
CIV. 1t is IN the line of sound and
proper civil service reform. In the
course of time, to be sure, Republicans
will superside Democrats in all the
offices; but it is not desirable that
changes shall be made in violation of
the principle that a man is entitled TO
complete a four-years' term if his du-
ties are being satisfactorily performed.
The Democratic incumbents are not
all incapable, though g. large proper
tion of them may truthfully he so
characterized. Those who have made
a creditable record and are known to
be honest and faithful should not be
arbitrarily removed for the mere
reason that they voted the Democratic
ticket at the November election. The
d eople are not clamoriDg for a clean
sweep within few weeks, or months;
they are quite willing that the result
shall be brought about gradually, and
with decent regard for the legal ten
ure by which the offices are held.
The president is not required by law
TO continue any Democrat in office, 1t
shonl,i be remembered. HIS power OF
removal is unlimited, so far as all Off
ces of value and Importance are con-
cerned. But it does not follow that he
