Reports of an attempt to reoccupy the
Goudan have been current since the acces-

execution OF such q project Is pronounced
Indispensable by Mr.. HENRY NORMAN. who

Tho President of tho Chica go Fair.

Chicago has Just held an election for the
locally important Office Of President Of the
Fair. This means the Presidency OF the
Illinois corporation known as the Worlds
Columbian Exposition. the concern which
is endeavoring to persuade Congress to pass
an unconstitutional bill making the United
States Government subscriber to S5.00O.-
900 Of its very shady stock.
For some time past certain OF the Chicago
newspapers have rung with the praises Of
q mysterious Mr.. HIGINBoTHAM, who has
enjoyed frst-class boom for tho Presi-
dency OF the Fair. H1GINBoTHAM was the
coming man. He was a citizen with a
special genius for running worlds fairs.
He was the man who was to straighten
out the crookedness Of past manage
ment. put the Fair on q sound busi-
ness basis, command the confidence Of the
crowned heads OF Europe. and. II necessary.
pump the United States Treasury dry for
the benefit Of Chicago. Great hopes centred
on HIaINBoTHAM.
We learn from our esteemed contem-
poraries in the City Of False Pretences that
the rainbow programme outlined above was
destroyed by Mr.. HIarNBoTHAMs positive
refusal to accept the Office. The election Of
q President has resulted In the choice for q
second term Of Mr.. WILLIAM T. BAKER. the
author Of the extraordinary private circular
to congressman. and the gentleman who
was unable to get within $4.692.0Oo Of the
truth when attempting to furnish Mr..
DocKERY's committee with the cost Of the
work Of preparation already contracted for.
Mr.. BAKERS qualifications for the post are
thus described by the Chicago Herald:
.xr. BAkxn during his hrst year. following an able
judcous executive did not succeed in winning
ndsnoe commanding esteem. Mr. BAxKR's constitur
sonsi wsaknsss. mpetuosty OF temper and exaggsra-

rev men have enjoyed great an opportunity to
earn BY Justice patience and tact the good will Of
tsmporares and the friendship Of colleagues Had the
post of President OF tho Directory been the private
creation OF Mr.. BAxERs brains he could not havo
Dloyed It with greater arrogance.
"Impatience. irritabiNty. petulancs. egotsm. are
saver becoming: they are always less than manly.
But In position Of public trust where the incumbent
ef once represents not himself in any proprietary
sense but others who temporarily employ him as their
6ducary agent, arrogance and ssishness are as
illogical - they are injudic.oua
"Nr. BAKER has year In which to overcome. II he
can. the ungracious impression his narrow sighted
csurss has hitherto engendsred!"
From this and similar expressions OF
opinion concerning Mr.. WILLIAM T. BAKER
We should judge that that gentleman is
better fitted to be an exhibit at the Fair
for the astonishment Of the natives. than
Its chief executive officer. We have been
careful to quote Chicago estimate Of his
Intellect and temper. not New York esti
mate or Washington estimate. But lei
US wait and give Mr.. BAKER another chance
Meanwhile. We cordially congratulate
