Then AL OF sudden he began 10

OFFICIAL SCRAP BOOKS.


How the President Is Enabled to Acquire
a Lot of Information.
Three times a day a messenger
brings into his Office big bundle o.
newspapers. and the aggregate for
each twenty-four hours is over three
hundred. Some of the more impor-
tant papers are subscribed for, but the
majority of them are sent by their
publishers without fee or hope of re-
ward. When Mr. Montgomery arrives
in the morning he finds the first batch
opened and spread out on his table.
and he at once attacks the huge pile.
AS rapidly as possible he chances down
column after column, and whenever
he sees any thing that seems to him to
be fit for the scrap book he marks the
paragraph with real editorial blue
pencil and later on saws it out with
his shears. AS a rule the work Is
quickly done.
The scrap book generally consists Of
half a dozen volumes, each devoted to
some particular subject or series of
subjects. One is devoted to comments
on the Civil-Service reform, or other
wise, of the Administration, and what
ever may be said. critical or lauda-
tory. of appointments or dismissals is
all skilfully pasted on one OF the
blank. brown pages. The Southern
question has a volume all to itself,
and within those covers the great is
sue is discussed. Every utterance has
its place. and every man of National
Importance, and a few who are of no
Importance at all, are on record in
black and white for black or white.
What is said and written about the
foreign policy OF the Administration
by native or alien experts is book
ali by itself, and another of the vol
umes has in it such scraps as relate to
Territorial matters, land grants and
other affairs which disturb the Interior
Department
The most interesting volume is that
which is made up of direct references
to the President, social and personal
some of them far from social in their
nature. and many of them too vio-
lently personal to be pleasant The
great bulk of the paragraphs are, how
ever, smooth and musical and pleasant
| to read.
OF miscellaneous matter, too general
in its nature to be easily classified.
there is wealth, and the volume set
apart to receive it gets filled up quicker
than any of its associates.
A great deal of low grade matter
fails to find aplace in the aggrega-
ton. A man with no literary ability
and devoid of discretion would proba-
bly, fill one of the volumes in few
hours; under the present arrangement
a book is rarely complete in less than
q week.-Washington Star.
