Mr.. cleveland's Cabinet.

The Washington correspondents and not
few editors are naming the men they
think will be or ought to be members OF
Mr. Cleveland's cabinet They are not
pulled rp with the idea that their services
are appreciated. They simply think they
know q great deal more about Mr.. Clevo-
lands intentions relative To bis cabinet than
the great majority Of those who are in COM
munication with him, aud they are anxious
TO give the public the benefit Of what they
think they know.
It IL pretty well understood that Mr..
Cleveland has offered the position Of Secre-
t&ry Of State to Mr.. Whitney and that the
offer has bssn declined. II Is also stated
With . considerable dsgrss Of authority
that be has requested Senator Carlisle to
accept the secrstaryship Of the treasury.
and that the request is being considered.
There is no reliable information that he has
offered any other man a cabinet position.
II he has done 20 ths fact has been kept
secret
A good many cabinet states have been
made, however, some Of which contain
names Of men that Mr.. Cleveland is not
at all likely to honor with the offer Of 8
cabinst nomination. II he should invite
them into his cabinet they would accept
with slacrity, and it is probable they would
quickly give him cause to repent having
placed them in such conspicuous and re-
sponsible positions. They are men who
place a much higher estimate upon their
ability and Importance than the public
does. However, there is no reason
to think Mr.. Cleveland will make
the mistake by surrounding himself with
advisers who would not give strength and
dignity TO his administration. The fact
that he has extended invitations to Mr..
Whitney and Senator Carlisle is salts
factory evidence that he will not be led
into selecting comparatively weak men for
his cabinet. There are plenty OF first-class
men from which to choose. The main diff
Guilty in making q choice is TO give each
section of the country a representation that
will be satisfactory.

a Significant Eveut.

The laying Of the cornerstone OF the
Protestant Episcopal Cathedral of st. John
in New York on Tuesday was an event Of
much more than ordinary significance
The idea in building this cathedral is not to
glorify one particular religious denomina-
ton. 1t is rather an effort to realize soma
thing that is adapted to the whole scope Of
American life. And because Of this broader
view thoughtful people in every part of
the country are taking an interest In the
structure
The idea of this grand structure-is will
be the grandest church building in this
country-was preached for the first time
in 1870 by the late Bishop Potter. Although
the idea took firm hold on the minds of
many people IN New York at that time.
little was done toward collecting fund for
the building until 1886, when the present
Bishop Potter issued an address, in which
he said:
ut will be the peoples church, in which
no reserved right can be bought, held or
hired on any pretext whatever. 1t will be
the fitting shrine of memorials OF our hon-
ored dead. 1t will supply the especial need
Of this material age. commanding witness
to faith in the unseen
The cathedral will, it is estimated, cost
$4,000, 600 and will require fifteen years &c
build it. 1t is more than probable, how,
over, that the estimate will be greatly ex,
ceeded.
Some idea of its size is furnished by the
following figures. When completed 1t,
total length will be $50 feet, its total WIDTH
2Q6 feet, the hight OF its central towers "a,
feet and the hight of its dome in the int.
rior 253 feet The choir alone will have G
seating capacity of 1900.
The site, which cost sSS5,0o0 has beer
paid for and there is 81 900 600 in III,
building fund. No doubt is felt that the
necessary money for building purposes vii
be Forthcoming as fast as it is needed.
The cathedral will be much more than al
ornament of New York. It will be grea
center of Christian life and &C ivity. L
will be visited by people from every part Of
the country and those who visit it viii

The Washington Post seems to be greatly
cut up by the denial which Mr.. Hoke Smith
makes relative to the paragraph which ap-
pesred in Mr., Smiths paper, the Atlanta
Journal, TO the effect Georgia Office seekers
must have Mr. Smiths Endorsement to gain
Mr.. Cleveland's ear. The Post commenting
on the denial says: "Thus is another fond
delusion dispelled aud the hope that clustered
around it scattered to the various winds. Il
is not true that Mr.. Cleveland has refused
to consider Georgia recommendation I'M

Henry Cabot Lodge, who believes that
in the distribution of ability New England
men received more than those of any other
section. because there are more pictures of
New England men in Appleton's encyclo-
Iedia than of men Of any other section,
may be right. According to the Washing
ton Post a ring of New England writers has
been abba to develop such "pull" on the
state department that nobody outside Of the
ring is allowed to see vauabls historical
documents owned by the u United States and
fled away in the library of the department..
And Lodge himself is alleged to be the ring
leader. Exclusive access to these documents
on the part OF these writers, be 1t under
stood, is a matter of dollars and cents.
They compile books and magazine articles
from the data obtained from the pal era,
which books and articles they put upon the
market for sale at the best terms obrein-
able. Under the order OF things that now
obtains in the department the New FL gland
clique and one New York house have the
sole benefit Of moro than 100000 worth of
historical papers paid for out of the public
treasury. Lodge may call that the fruit OF
ability, but conscientious peopis will see in
the refusal of department clerks to allow
outsiders access TO the papers species Of
bribery aud corruption.

The Local Campsign.

The county and municipal campaigns are
under full neadway. The thing that has
cropped out thus far is that there are q
great many more candidates than there are
Offices. 1t is rather astonishing that there
are so many reputable and public spirited
citizens who are anxious to serve the public
There isn't one Of them who wouldn't feel
hurt if it were suggested that he has pur-
pose in view. other than the welfare of the
dear people. Even the candidates for
offices that pay nothing are confident, SO
FAR as they have been heard from. that they
feel the throbbings of patriotic motives and
high purposes.
In these free-for-all races there ought to
be no difficulty in picking out men who are
eminently qualified to manage the affairs
Of the county and city and to discharge
the duties of the minor Offices. There is
plenty of good material to choose from, and
IL the right kind Of men are not elected the
people will have only themselves to blame
Voters should keep steadily in mind the fact
that it is their duty as citizens to do all they
can for the welfare of the city and county.
Most Of the candidates are well-Snown citi-
Eens, and nearly every voter ought to be
able to pick out those who can be depended
upon to devote themselves conscientiously
to the service Of the public and who have
the necessary qualifications.
The mistake that too many voters make
is that they permit their likes and dislikes
to influence them in voting. Personal feel
ing should not enter into the matter at all,
The public good should be the sole consid
GRAFTON of every one casting vote.
A difference of opinion as to who the besi
men are is, of course, to be expected, but il
voters, after careful inquiry concerning the
candidates, follow their Judgments the ma.
jority are pretty certain to cast their ballots
for the candidates who are likely to render
the public the best service.
