right to aspire, and have a right to a
fair hearing of their merits. The easy
solution is for the President to COM
nit all minor appointments to the
heads Of the apartments, reservlng
to himself only those of consider
able consequence. Such course
would allow him leisure to attend to
ether duties that require his atten
ton.
We do not know how his order,
elsewhere printed, that the White
House shall be closed TO applicants
for office, will be considered by Sen
ctors and Members of Congress; but
ve assume that they will not object.
They, like Mr.. Cleveland, would be
glad of some respite from the as
siduous attentions of their friends.
But regular official channels have
long been established; and These
gentlemen have to exercise the dlsa

Facts About Shanghai.

somewhat il regard to the pecu-

The salary of the consul at Shang-

amount to about $4,000. These
are paid into the Treasury of the
United States, and the consul must
give bond in sufficient sum to insure
such payment. There is also d
class of fees known as unofficial

Exciting. But Not a "Panic."

The exciting events of.sthe past
few days in Wall street cannot prop
erly be characterized as panic, for
the disasters that have occurred are
not only local but are confined to a
group of operators in a very few

Current comparisons with the
panic that attended the suspension
of Barring Brothers and Go. two aud
half years ago and with the panic
of 1884 ara therefore al ogether
wide of the mark.
Ia an actual panic it is vsry diff

WE are glad to welcome to Raj
eigh tho medical gentlemen who
are here in attendance on the an

Society. The physicians Of North

high rank in the fraternity. Wheth-

are equally worthy Of the esteem

They are among the best all.round
doctors in the world, and are excel

in their respective communities not
merely the medical advisers, but the
counsellors of their friends who
look to them for advice and guild

takes account of their work among

The President has found his posi-

to administer his Office, is rather too
much for one man. He began with
the proposition that he was to make

has apparently concluded to turn
his back for time on those who

Ihe crushing defeat of the Democrat
ic party in New York at the last election
has worked marked diminution in the
prestige OF the Tammany organization.
1t has become rather Fashionable, even in
Democratic papers, to assail both Tam
many and it's leaders. Richard Croker,
as the head of the organization, is COM
course of which the story of his wonder
ful career is being told. The third of
seven children, he was born in County
Cork, Ireland, in 1910. In 1851 his father
came to this country bringing Richard
and the rest Of the family with him.
schools for a short time and there ac-
quired whatever book learning he pos
sesses. This is not considerable if any,
thing may be judged from the fact that
he claims to be the inventor of the
party symblems," as he calls them,
which distinguish ballots in New York
elections. He began work in machine
shop while quite young, and there, in
contact with his fellow workman, de-
veloped as bulldozer. Thick,
strong and sullen, his fist was his for
tune. By 1860 he had become sub-lead
er in the Fourth Avenue Tunnel gang,
an irregular organization of unemployed
hackmen, street roughs and other idlers.
Young Croker was in those days AL
Crangeman, nominally. His father was
jealous Orangeman, noted for his anti
popery activity. But the region in
which the Crokers lived was ecclesiasti-
cally within the limits of DR.. Edward
lMcGlynn's famous Catholic parish, and
politically in James O'Brien's Tammany
district. AS leader of his gang Croker
could be of use to O'Brien and indirectly
to John Kelly, the famous Tammany
Sachem of those days. But when in 1867
Richard Croker wished to become an
Alderman of New York, he found that
an avowed Orangeman, who annually
celebrated the anniversary of the Boyne,
could hope for no such honor in that
district So he was converted" and be-
came member of DR.. McGlynn's parish.
From an Alderman to the leadership of
Tammany the course was comparatively
open to man OF force of character.
Such man Croker undoubtedly is.
He is not credited with being either SEN
sitive or scrupulous; and he has bullied
rather than worked his way to his pres
ent position. But for ll.that, he cannot
be an ordinary man so far as natural
abilities are concerned. He is credited
with immense wealth, lives in fine
mansion and keeps some of the best
horses in the State. Such rise is won
derful, and possible only in the still
more wonderful city of New York
