About the most scandalous appoint.
ment recently made by President Cleve
land is that OF Charles B. Morton, of
Maine, to be Fourth Auditor of the Treas.
ury, in place of Hon. John R. Lynch, of
Missippi. Morton is the party who de.
faced the tombstone of James G.. Blaine's
eldest child by chipping OF the date,
thereby leaving the time of birth and
death in doubt. He was about to be
appointed Postmaster at Augusta, during
Cleveland's first term, but Mr.. Blaine
protested SO vigorously that he did not
secure the place. At that time Secre.
tary Endicott said President Cleveland
would not appoint Morton if every Dem.
ocrat in Maine requested it. The Pres
ident did not question Morton's Democ.
racy, but he did question his manliness.
The times evidently have changed. His
new position pays $1,000 per pear.-O.
