POLITICIANS have the general ten
dency to be bosses when they get the
power. but it is only Once-in-a-while in
the Republican states they reach the
power Of Quay in Pennsylvania and
Platt in New York. 1t looks in Penn
sylvania as if the effort to overthrow
Quay would be successful, and in New
York the position is thus stated by the
Tribune:
No more striking illustrations of the
weak, demOralized condition of Mr..
Platt's state machine could be asked
for than is furnished by the defeat Of
COggeshall and Donaldson. for, as pre-
dicted in the Tribune some time ago.
the retirement from public life of these
unworthy representatives is now
assured. Both men are conspicuous
expOnents of the machine idea. They
have for years thrown all their intlu-
ence in its favor. They have depended
on it for successfully defying the pro-
tests of their constituents when they
followed the orders OF the boss in the
Legislature They had come to look
upon it as all-pOwerful, and whatever
they might 20 the hoss's arm would
never be shortened that he could not
save them. Their defeat. therefore. is
entirely unexpected they are dunn
founded and unable to account for it.

GEO. V. MASSEY, ESQ of Dover. was
last week appointed Assistant Solicitor
general of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
This appointment requiring. as it does.
n combination of the best legal and
business ability, is an honor to Della
ware. a compliment to 5Tr. Massey and
gratifying to his many friends in and
out Of the state. Mr. Massey's abilities
deserved honOrs which his state should
have conferred on him, but as it has
not, his friends cannot but be pleased
to know that they are recognized else
where. Whatever the Every ECeninq
has or might have said of him as a
party representative of Delaware, the
following, regarding his transfer 10
another field, is doubtless a candid
expression in reference to a public
man:
The Republican party Of Delaware
has never properly appreciated the
very great abilities of George Y. Mas
sey- Twice it had opportunity to send
him to the United States Senate. and
both times refused to do it. The Penn
sylvania Railroad has need of the same
high order of ability required for the
lofty places in statesmanshiG. and il
has shown a discrimination and apDye-
citation which Delaware Republicans
lacked. Perhaps the position of solic.
itOr for the Pennsylvania will prove as
pleasant as a seat in the United States
Senate. 1t will certainly be more prof
itable.
