President and Mrs. Cleveland have
moved out to their country house.
The Star says thut secret which has

talk, is now no longer secret, as 1t has
been given considerable publicity.
That is that the members of the fam

event to occur, it is stated, In July.
The expected event explains why the
President and Mrs. Cleveland have been

Mr.. RISsELL,s RULING.

Postmaster General BIssELL's ruling,
that no Republican presidential post
master will be removed until the expi-
ration Of his commission, regardless OF
the date Of his appointment, Is still in
force and Democrats ere still loud and
growing louder in critleising its inius-
tlce.
Mr.. BIssELL, 10 his honest endeavor
to observe the strictsst rules Of the civil
service has accepted a pure technicality
which no former administration has OBJ
served and no oficehOlder ever dreamed
Of beneiting by. -
The late Republican Administration
removed postmasters promptly at the
expiration of their four years Of ser
vice, If not earlier, and Mr. HARRI-
sons appOintees were often indicted
into Office months before the date Of
their commissions. Postmaster Cow
DEN was appointed in May aud did not
receive his commission Till the following
November, seven months later. In
some cases a whole year may have
elapsed before the appolntee received,
his commission.
Mr.. BIssELL is wrong in theory as
we'll as practice. II it is right for a
new administration to remove postmas-
ters az al it is right 70 remove them at
Ashe end Of their four years Of service.
IS certain " not just to allow the Re-
can apSoiated by HARRISON to
