THE NEW CABINET.


Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
Mr.. Cleveland has finally completed
his Cabinet, and the names have been
announced for the information of the
public. Had the names been selected
before instead of after the election the
ardor of many an oldline Democrat
would have been suddenly cooled, and
criticisms might have been much more
numerous and emphatic than they are
now. The first thing to be considered,
however, is that the choice of his Cabi-
net is very largely Mr.. Cleveland's own
affair. This, taken in connection with
his well-known independence and self
reliance, enabled the public to discount
in advance any peculiarities or disap-
pointments which might be in store for
them. Very few men who know Mr..
Cleveland intimately expected that he
would do else than follow his own in
clinations and pay little regard to pre-
cedentS and formalities.
The Cabinet is peculiarly Clevelandish
1t is remarkable fact that only one
member, Mr.. Carlisle, is recognized as
party leader. Had the rest been like
him in point of ability and party stand
ing there would be little room for criti-
cism, but they fall far below the standard
except in the case of Judge Gresham,
who until very recently was prominent
aspirant for the presidency as Repub-
lican. Two members, BiSSell and La
mont, are prominently known as per-
sonal friends of the President elect,
while another, Mr.. Herbert, gained what
little distinction he has in connection
with naval affairs as a member of the
House. The remaining three, Messrs.
Richard Olney, Hoke Smith, and J.
Sterling Morton, have their reputation
to make in the domain of craftsmanship.
In yielding to the demands of personal
friendship two of his "advisers" have
been taken from his own State, which
is paying little regard to the claims of
locality. Thus New York has repre-
sentation equal to that of the "boundless
West,' the South gets three and New
England one. In the distribution the
Republican States shared as well if not
better than the Democratic ones.
1t makes little difference, after all,
whether the Cabinet pleases or displeases
the majority of the Democratic party.
Mr.. Cleveland is ''going to he President"
That might be inferred easily enough
from his first term, but he is in now for
the last time and his administration will
be more distinctively personal than be-
fore. Like Andrew johnson he has
policy and he will not hesitate about
carrying it into effect. He is not likely
to encounter much friction in the Cabi-
net at all events. If it be eminently re-
spectacle it is certainly not distinguished
for political strength or personal ag-
gressiveness. He has entered upon the
very dubious experiment of demonstra-
ting how much greater he is than the
party that made him.
