HIS RECORD.
Incidents OF Justice JacksOn's Last Years.

lncluentS OF justice JacKSon'S Last Years.
Washington, August S.-Whem Justice
Jackson was so seriously III this spring
that he was not expected to recover the
name of his successor was considerably
speculated upon. 1t was suggested by
some that the president would again name
either Peci1ham or Hornblower of New
i York, while the selection of a man from
the west fell to Don M Dickinson. Post
master General Wilson was strongly
spoken of as among the possibilities,
w0rlle the majority were of the opinion
that Secretary Carlisle could have the
l place If he wanted it. Carlisle would be
especially eligible as he would be ap-
pointed from the same district that the
death of Justice jackson makes vacant.
The last time that Justice Jackson was
in Washington was on the occasion Of the
hearing Of the income tax case, last May.
He had been absent from the bench since
lhe preceding fall, when, soon after the
convening Of the October term OF court,
ne had been compelled to go South on
account OF his rapidly declining health.
When Judge jackson was here on this
occasion It was evident to all who came
in contact with him that life was slow
ly but surely ebbing away, and that the
effort he made in performing his duties
In that emergency was made at the ex-
pense Of his vitality.
AS senator and justice OF the supreme
court, Mr. Jackson had resided in Wash
ington about eight years. BY his asso-
ciates he was universally esteemed as a
man of high moral worth and rich in In
teHectual attainments. as was evidenced
in nothing so much az In his appointment
to the supreme bench by President Har-
rison and his confirmation by Republic
can senate, notwithstanding that he was
Democrat.

chief difficulties Mr.. Reed is contending
with is the appointments from his own
state. Messrs. Dingley, Boutele and
Milliken would each be entitled to a
craftsmanship under ordinary conditions,
because they are among the Oldest mem
bers in point of service. Naval affairs
would fail to Mr.. Boutelle, and public
buildings to Mr.. Mllliken, but to have
the speakerskrp and three chairman
ships given to n state with four mem
bers, might provoke feeling in the less
favored delegations. How to make an
equitable adjustment Of this matter
and incur no resentments is among the
most knotty problems with which the
speaker has to deal, apart from the rel
alive claims of Messrs. Dlngley. Can
non and Henderson to the chairman
