WASHINGTON dispatches are
rather contradictory as to what
Dan Mcmillan is likely to capture
in the way Of a federal appoint
ment. Both the collectorship of
customs at Pembina and the berth
of deputy inspector of internal
revenue of the Omaha district are
spoken of as plums that have been
temptingly held under the gaze of
Dan, to "let silence like a poultice
fall and heal the blows of political
strife and sound" Both of these
t1sits'' are naturally out of the
reach of a Cavalier county repub-
lican. and it is evident thai like
unto even greater than he, Dan,
may find himself at last among the
unfortunates listed for something
equally as good. BLESSED is the
man that expecteth nothing for
verify he shall not be disap-
pointed"

IT would be difficult to find a
more disappointed and disgruntled
gang than those republicans who
hoped for some sort of appoint
ment up to the hour of Mr.. Nc
Kinley's departure on an extend
ed vacation. They had expected
that large number Of appoint
ments would be made as soon as
congress was out of the way, but
only few were made and some of
them were those whose nomina-
tons had failed to be acted upon
by the senate. He added rs their
disgruntlement by amending the
civil service rules so that no Office
holder in the classified service can
be removed except for cause and
upon written charges, and then
only after failure to make salts
factory defense. He pleased some
of the republican congressman by
excepting from the civil service
rules some of the confidential en-
ployes in each of the internal
revenue and customs districts, but
offended others by extending those
rules to the smaller custom houses
that were left out by Mr.. Cleve.

CASE OF PROF .4NDREWfS.

President E. B. Andrews Of
Brown university has at last been
forced out of the college by the
trustees and by Massachusetts,
gold standard congressman, be-
cause of his silver views. Prof.
Andrews is one of the greatest in
tellectual forces in America, an
authority on political econmy, and
an educator of national reputation.
The action of the intolerant trus-
tees of the university will make
converts to the side of the contro-
versy supported by Andrews.
There is already a movement to
make him the next United States
senator from Rhode Island. This
is partly as protest by the people,
even in conservative New Eng
land, against the effort to suppress
any kind of teaching on financial
questions. but that represented by
the present administration in our
higher schools and colleges.
Other universities in this coun-
try, like the Rockefeller institu-
tons are doing the same thing
trying to stife independent discus
sion on a broad, national question
about which there is wide differ
ence of opinion. The trustees of
funds donated to these colleges for
learning of the truth, are driving
into other fields or occupations
men who will not teach what they
disbelieve for hire.
Personally President Andrews
is far above his narrow-minded
employers, in breadth of scholar
ship, in reputation, and integrity
of character. In ability and know
ledge his critics are his unknown
interiors. The history of the world
has always been, that the public's
friends, the peoples advocates, are
often stung to death by insects.
It is hoped that the time has come
in the United States when the
effort to suppress or drive men like
Andrews into uselessness, will fail
and that he will give the public
the full benefit of his time and
great reputation. He is one of the
most noted educators in the east
and his arguments and influence
would be a great factor exerted for
the people.
