The Chicago Globe says: "Alf Kennedy,

and Germany ara in perfect accord" As
long ago as 1886, England formed "Ce'
limitation treaty WITH Germany, saying IN
substance, 1--WE own certain islands In the
South Pacific, with which of course Ger
many must not interfere; as TO all the rest
you can 60 on and gobble 70 your hearts
content"
And how as 10 the United States? Eng
land has abundant colonies and an elaborate
colonial policy Germany wants colonies
and has her policy" also; but the United
States has and wants no colonies and has
no policy on the subject whatever So Mr..
Bayard virtually says: "lf the Germans in
Samoa have wrongfully insulted and de
stroyed property of American citizens, of
which the full proof is sti II wanting doubt.
less | shall ask her government 10 make
the proper apology AMI due restitution, bur
beyond that We have no rights ia Samoa
which Germany can possibly interfere
with The islands are no colony of ours,
and beyond coaling harbor, We claim and
desire no possessions. If, however, the
United Ssates desire the maintenance of
the autonomy aud independence of these
or any other islands In the Pacific, II is time
she announces a"pcllcy" on that subject,
ami the annunciatlon of such a policy Is
certainly not the business of the President
or his secretary, but is part of the war
making power and belongs to congress-"
upon whose shoulders, therefore, Mr. Bay
ard unceremoniously unloads the whole
business
And there 1t rests, so far as this admins
tration is concerned. AS to what the next
will do about 1t, Mr.. Sherman in the Sen
ate on Tuesday, is understood to have
spoken with full authority from President
Harrison; and his IDEAS appear to differ
very little from those of Secretary Baysrd.
Besides the idea of our good offices" to
peace between the Germans and
the natives, we have nothing to care for in
Samoa except 10 hold on to our possession
of the harbor of Pango- Pango, and to see
that the property rights of American citi-
zeus in the island are not wantonly out
ragged.
But this only relates TO Cleveland and
Harrison, and leaves entirely out of the
account Mr.. Blaine, who is to succeed Mr..
Bayard, and whose Id eas as to our foreign
policy, as shown during his brief career
under Garfield, are certainly of a very diff,
ferent cast and as Lincoln used to say in
reference to Stanton, "ihe President isn't
In the war Office" so Harrison
may under Blaine, soon find that he isn't
"pigs-tracKs" in the foreign office, and
under such Il hot-head it is far from impos-
sible that this Samoa row may yet, to this
lead to very serious consequences.

GARNET MAKING.

If the newspaper reporters and other re
tailers of political gossip at Washington
had the making of President Harrison,
cabinet the whole matter might be consid
cred settled-to nobody's satisfaction Ger,
tainly as il now stands constructed by these
outside workmen, it is a very queer piece
of mechanism. Blaine for Secretary OF
State, Allison for the Treasury, Estee OF
alifornia for the Interior, Alger of Mich
igan for the Waw office, Wannamaler OF
Philadelphia for the General Post Office
and Plat, of New York, for Attorney Gen
neral
In point OF fact, however, none of these
can be regarded as certain, except Blaine,
for the State Department, and Wanna
maker for the Post Office There is no
doubt but that the Treasury was offered to
Allison, Of Iowa, and that he agreed to &C,
cept il, but when the secret leaked our,
Editor Clarkson, of Iowa, hitherto Allison's
right hand man and bosom friend, went
for him with such vigor that at last &c.
counts Allison is on stand as he wants
three days TO consider The fact is, Clark
son himself wants to represent Iowa in the
cabinet, and the republicans of that state
back him up, regarding Allison as sufli
ciently remunerated with seat in the
senate.
Blaine's appointm ent instead of being a
recently settled affair, was really made at
the instant Harrison was nominated for the
presidency, for his nomination was the re-
result of bargain to that effect between
Harrison's friends and Depew and the rest
of the railroad managers and attorneys
that composed the body of the Chicago
convention. To show his adhesion to
the bargain In good faith ii is we'll known
that Harrison, within week after his
nomination, conveyed his assent to the
agreement to Blaine, still over the seas
in letter, which was one of the letters
Blaine took care not to burn.
w dhuaiiihhel, tle OniJ Olnei sure man
thus far, is Quay's man, and is alleged to
be as much the result of bargain as
Blaines appointment. 1t was Quay who
engineered the campaign and was respon-
sible for the necessary funds to do 1t sue
cessfully. Without sure pledge of his
reward in hand he refused to undertake
the Job, and that reward is the post office
for Wannamaker, through whom alone
Quay was able to keep his word as TO the
item of funds.
Alger, the Michigan lumber millionaire,
is said to rely on his liberal disbursement
of funds as his claim to be remembered in
the distribution of cabinet honors, but II is
limited that he departed with his cash with
out the precaution of Blaine and Quay In
taking bond In advance for its REIN
bursement.
Plat, like Allison, would be all right
but for pestiferous rival-Platt's 5ete
noir being Warner Miller, the wood pulp
man, between whom and Plat there lie
deadly feud. OF course to place either In
the cabinet would tear the republican party
of New York into pieces, and Harrison
can never be brought to do that.
