A Republican Secretary Il State


1t is currently reported that the in-
coming President has offered the chief
position in his Cabinet 10 Judge Gresham,
a Republican. We were not

And again is Gresham. Republi

are bis merits? What is his party

He supported Clevellnd at the last
election, it is true. aud if for that be is
TO be rewarded by being made the
fol mer's chief adviser, then the appoint
nent is exclusively personal, and party
ghts. aud the public welfare are
-lbordinated to the incoming Presidents
@-isate ends Hehas not been true to his
party's principles. He is not politically an
honest man. 1t will be remembered
that Gresham was a conspicuous
candidate for the nomination for the
presidency, and extended all the power at
his command at the presidential conven-
of 1888 to secure the prize; it is
also well known that the plat
form of the Republican party adopted
at that convention declared in uHmis-
taxable terms in favor of protective
tariff. On that platform he was willing
and anxious to run as candidate for
President, and yet after defeat, and
in the campaign following he made him
self notorious by making free trade
speech, and then supported Harrison.
The platform Of the Republican party Of
1892, as respects the tariff was the
same, an the issues between the parties
was fought on the line of the clmpaign
Of lSSS-Proteetive tariff or protection
for revenue ORly. Gresham saw
his way clear In 1883 to be a candidate
for the Republican nomination for the
presidency on protective tariff platform
and to make free trade speech in the
campaign following the nomination of
Harrison and to support the latter, but
in 1892, when the Republican party
resfhrmed its belief in the principles Of
the party as adopted in 1888. and when
the same two candidates were again
matched against each other in the race,
Gresham did not vote for Harrison as
before, but supported Cleveland In
the face of such inconsistent conduct.

What likelihood, asks the New Yorl

young King of Servia has evidently tn,
poorest chance of reigning. The quarre

France is suffering almost as much
as Germany from the overcrowding of
the learned professions. Fifteen thou
sand school mistresses, 1000 primary
school mistresses and 500 high-school
instructors are looking in vain for en-
ployment. There are $4,000 French
physicians; that is about 5000 or :, 600
more than there are in Germany, with
its TO- 900 more inhabitants. Paris has
500 apothecaries. Two thousand law
yers in Paris. who have passed all pre-
limlnary examinations for a full prac-
tlce, can not make livings in their pro-
fession. Civil and mining engineers are
so numerous that hundreds of them are
seeking eagerly petty positions in mines
and factories.
