there has existed determination to defeat
his confirmation, and he has been
pursued relentlessly, unreasonably and
viciousiy, and pursued by men
who should have no influence
whatever with the appointing power
or in the Senate. That he has de-
feated them will be gratifying to his friends
and not unpleasant to the Indifferent on
lockers. The victory must be especially
pleasing to the marshal, for in addition to
establishing himself in the place he has
had the satisfaction of taking the scalp of
one of his pursuers and of making things
mighty shaky for some of the others. Ii
the battle had continued much longer it is
believed that other scalps would have dan
gied from his belt, for he seems to have
been better posted on records than was
supposed.
So far, Mr.. PARSONS has made fairly
good marshal. He has been handicapped
and annoyed by those who should have
helped him, but in spite of the opposition
and obstacles which were cast in his way,
he has managed his Office successfully and
is better respected in the community than
he was when he assumed the duties of the
place. Having failed in their afforts to re-
move him those who have worked for his
defeat should now drop the fight and hold
up his hands in the rlghtful performance of
the duties which go with the Office. BY
doing this they will best serve the puplic.
