Another Paramount COWNISSIONER

II must be evident 10 III" dullcst mind that In
this emergency the President needs honest, I'M
selfish and conscientious advice. We refer to
the emergency of j. Hampton lIogc and to the
advice of The Tribune. IIogc impcnds lie is
imminent He is an issue and an obstacle
Like the cookie burr under the bronco's TAIL he
is n thing TO be disposed of If we expect the
procession to proceed. The Tribune therefore
comes forward with pointer Of great price.
We have been struck by the similarity be-
tween the IIogc incident Of 1893 and an Incl
dent in 1856, in Mr. Clcvclands first term. On
the former occasion Mr.. Cleveland appointed
TO an important Treasury Office on the Pacific
Coast gentleman who, as it turned out. was
unacceptable to the Senate. His case differed
from Hogcs in detail because the objections
TO him occurred before the Senate had con-
frmed his nomination, whereas in this affair OF
IIoge the objections were disclosed aftcrward.
But the parallel Is restored in this that like his
distinguished prototype Of 1856. IIoge has been
thrown out of Il Job and under circumstances
which forbid the idea of sending his name TO
the Senate for any other place. Travelling by
different routes, achieving fame by totally diff
fcrcnt methods these two protcges Of Mr. Clevc-
land have reached the same goal Of total dis
qualification. and become equally unprcscntabe
to the uncOnsecrated eye. 1t would have been
absurd in the President seven years ago 10
appoint Bccchcr TO any new position over which
the Senate had Jurisdiction. 1t would be a
waste Of time were the President now 10 pre-
sent Hoge again to that cantankerous and
rreverent body. The dilemma of 1856 has been
repeated, In short
But Mr. Cleveland has as much right to re-
peat himself as dilemma has, and he can do
with UOgc tomorrow what he did with Becchcr
seven years ago. 1t is Il matter Of record that
when he found the Senate immovably resolute
on the point Of rejecting Beecher's appointment
as Collector for Puget Sound, Mr.. Cleveland
withdrew the nomination, retired within the
sanctuary, made Il great deal Of reform at
mospkere and presently emerged with IN ap-
pointment of Beccher as Treasury Agent for
the Pacific Coast-an office of considerably
greater power and responsibility than that
which the Senate had refused him. but an office
exclusively within the Presidents control. Mr..
Cleveland has possibly forgotten this little cpl
