Cabinet Making.

The President-elect has announced his
choice OF four men for his cabinet. Per-
haps the persons and papers that have
been making selections for him will now
give the public and themselves rest, and
let him proceed and announce his choice
for the rest of his cabinet as soon as he is
ready.
The appointment of Judge GRESHAM
will cause the greatest amount of COM
ment because the gentleman has figured
prominently as Republican. Objections
will probably be made by individuals of
both parties. But these will not be on
the ground of lack of ability. WALTER
@. GRESHAM is too prominent figure in
American politics to be classed as incom-
petent for the position of Secretary of
State.
1t is only as member of Democratic
administration that he is viewed as open
to criticism. He was mentioned before
the convention at Minneapolis as a
suitable candidate for the Presidency by
the Republican party, and afterwards
was sought as the nominee of the Popu-
lists. He undoubtedly declined in both
instances.
Judge GRESHAM has been for a long
time a believer in tariff for revenue
only, and his views on that question are
in perfect accord with those of GROVER
CLEVELAND. He is an ardent advocate of
tariff reform and in that respect at least
is Democrat, and is also Democratic in
his views on the evils of Capitalization in
government.
The gentleman will adorn the place for
which he has been selected and in CHI oos-
ing him Mr.. CLEVELAND has shown ex-
cellent Judgment. He will bring into the
C ibinet ripe scholarship. large expert
ence and great capability for public af-
fairs.
It is gratifying to the friends of Colonel
DANIEL S. LAMoNT-and their name is
legion-that he will be associated with
President CLEVELAND in the affairs of
government. He has been an efficient
aid to CLEVELAND in many important
places and particulars. He was his pri-
vate secretary when governor of New
York. and his efficient services as private
secretary to the President are we'll known
and have given him national reputation.
For quick intelligence, sptness in bust
ness, comprehension OF details, recollection
of individuals, devotion to his chief and
cheerful willingness to serve. the public,
DAN. LAMONT, as he is popularity called,
has planted himself deeply in the respect
and affection of the public.
The other appointments are in keeping
with the two we have. briefly commented
on. CARLIsLE's appointment has been
approved by the country, BIssELL' IS will
be no less acceptable. Now let the cabi-
net makers withhold their hands and keep
still their tongues, and CLEVELAND will
complete the work himself in good time
and save them heap OF trouble and
great many plumbers.
