Presidents Power of Removal.

No one has been brave enough to bring the
matter to an issue. Now the issue has been
brought.
1t may be matter of small concern to
the people of this country, on this Christ
mas day, whether Mr. Clarke ever gets a
penny of the $3.50 a month, which he sd VS.
is coming to him. But IL is of the greatest
Importance that the question of the Prcsi-
dents power of removing from office should
be clearly defined. Mr.. Clarke was re-
moved for no other reason than that his posi-
ton was wanted for a young and active
partisan. Had there been good cause for
the removal, no issue would now be before
the Senate.
The office which Mr.. Clarke filled for so
many years was one to which he was ap-
pointed, '.by and with the advice nd consent
OF the Senate He was removed from that
office while the Senate was in session. II
the Senate has coordinate power in ap
pointment, should it not have coordinate
power in removal? The question is fairly
before the Senate now, and should be set
tied once and forever.

Japan as Supreme Judge.

Japan. according TO telegraphicinformatio ton

weapons of warfare as well as for de-
velopment of peaceful commerce. shall
be Constructed aud operated at home.
In diplomacy the japanese have taken
rank with the best-iraincd men of Europe
and in some of their recent negotiations
fraught with the interests OF their vast
coast. they have shown cunning that
would excite the envy of a Talleyrand.
Mr.. Labouchcrc's suggestion is tEcrefore
wise and substantial. Japan is in no way
interested for or against the Monroe doc
trine. Her people and leaders are friendly
to both America and Great Britain. They
would ha We no selr-interest whatever. Their
Intervention by Invitation would draw
the Orient and Occidcnt closer together
than ever. The suggestion of the great
editor of London Truth is emphatically
worthy OF consideration.

Fine Efforts of Spanish Editors.

Since Congress convened the work Of the
Spanish editor has been evident in almost
every telegram that has been sent from
Havana and Madrid. Victory has piled upon
victory for the forces which were aba Ddoned
by Campos several weeks ago, and which
are yet dignified by the name of the armies
of Spain. Day after day reports come of
assurances OF the retirement of the rebels,
and yet these same rebels seem to exist
and to be anything but dismaycd by the
narratives sent to the newspapers at Ma
drid and through them to the people of the
United States.
Evidently the Spanish government has
taken a lesson from the literary perform
ances OF other administrations labDring
under similar conditions, and have con-
cluded to win their battle by persuading
civilization of the hopelessness of the thing
calleddemocracy. That ma y be very shire wd.

One OF the most substantial evidences of

More than unusual interest will follow
the effort of Mr.. Rufus L. B. Clarke to have
the Senate pass upon his case. Mr.. Clarke
claims that he is still examner-in-chief in
the Patent Office, though he is not exer-
cising the most valuable prerogative. to
himself. OF that office-drawing the salary.
In Mr.. Ciarkes contention are carried
several important principles, principles
upon which the fathers of the republic
could not agree, and have not yet been
settled. Hamilton, jefferson, Adams, all
had their own views on these subjects, but
unfortunately, no decision was ever reached.
An attempt was made to impea ch Andrew
Johnson on these grounds, but even in this
case there was no final settlement.
The Senate can, on this petition OF Mr..
Clarke, boldly sets forth their idea OF the
limit of executive power. Already mum.

That shrewd and prolific British radical.

House Revenue Struggle.

when the Wilson bill was enacted, propose
to bump their heads against a stone wall
for the avowed sentimental purpose OF at
tempting to shield the President from en-
barrassment.
This declaration does not SO much SAVIOR
OF sound sense, but is rather an illustration
of the two inevitable extremes as shown
in the arrogance of power and the humility
OF heiplessness. When those of his own
party could have in every way legislated
to meet the Presidents views the senti-
mental side OF the situation was not ap-
parent; but with the ability and opportu-
nifty gone there springs to the surface a
burning desire to do that which is now i'm
possible.
The Republicans will frame the revenue
bill to suit themselves and conform to their
political exigencies, and the President can
approve it, veto it or allow it to become
a law, as he may elect.

government at Madrid is finding 1t ex-
ceedingly difficult to maintain the natural
