at the request of the President-elect and he
was afterward appointed TO the Interior De-
partment. The appointment OF Gen Rusk was
made both on the grounds of friendship, of his
peculiar efficiency for the head of the depart
ment for which he was chosen and as a matter Of
gratitude FOR mis- action concerning the Chicago
convention. As soon he there no
chance for his own nomination he threw all
his strength to Harrison, and sitting in his
Office in Madison, Via, he kept the wires be-
tween that city and Chicago hot with kilograms
TO his friends to vote and work for Harrison.
Few Of these appointments were made until
short time before the Inauguration. and three
were not settled upon definitely until Harrison
came to Washington to be inaugurated These
were, / think, the appointments Of Tracy,
Wanamaker and Miller. The President had
about decided as to them. but not positively.
Mr.. Tracy had impressed him a big man and
as especially fitted for the head of the navy.
Miller had been long associated with him in
legal matters and John WanRmaker had weight
through his great natural ability as a business
man and the recommendations Of the national
committee President Harrison decides things
very slowly. He carefully and judiciously
weighs every point, and his decisions are made
through reason rather than through feeling.
He chose his cabinet slowly and carefully, and
1t seems to me that his selection has proved to
be a good one.
