The Philadelphia American, Republi

Mass do not seem to relish the methods
of administration employed in the ap.
pointment and removal of postmasters.
Mr. Cleveland 50 far deferred to their
Judgment as to leave the Republican in
cumbeut in Office until his commission
had expired and even longer He then
selected for the place q Democrat whose
local popularity was attested by his hav-
ing been elected TO an Office in that
strongly Republican city. But long before
his term expires he has been removed to
make room for Republican, although he
has administered the office to the entiie
satisfaction eff the people. 1t is reported
that some sort Of charge was made
against him by the political workers who
asked his removal. Whether this was
done or not, it is certain that the Repub.
licaus of New Bedford decline to regard
him as anything but a victim Of machine
politics The Mercury, speaking for
them, stigmatizes the removal as a breach
of faith with the whole country, and one
active Republican, member Of the city
Republican committees, after using his
persona! influence az Washington 20 pre-
vent the removal has addressed an open
letter TO the Postmaster General in
which he says
LAS a Republican who has with essed
this whole transaction, | ought to and do
feel Inundated. 1t is a revelation as to
the conduct of the administration Of my
own party. Its platform and the letter Of
acceptance of President Harrison dis
tinctly promised that should not be done
which have seen done here with my own
eyes Nor is that even fairly stating it.
Not only has an honest and efficient pub
lie officer been dismissed from the ser
vice on a charge Of incompetency, but
turned out of Office under a cloud
and denied even the opportunity OF prov
ing the utter falsity of such charge The
Bedford Office, though an important one,
is only one of many. 1t is improbable
that what has been done here would
alone have much effect upon the welfare
of the party at large, but If the admins
tration is pursuing all over this country
the course it has pursued in this locality.
the Republican party will be defeated in
the next election and deservedly.
1t is no answer to men Of this temper
to allege that in sundry cases Mr.. Cleve-
land did as badly That is quite true.
