VIEWED LOCALLY.
Readers of the Herald Knew That
Miller's Appointment Was Ger
tain.

"Advices from Washington are to the
effect that President Mckinley is LA
BILE to send in some appointments for
Utah at most any time now. There is
going to be a whole lot of disappointed
people in this section when the list is
read To begin with, Harvey Hardy,
John Lu Taylor and Hoyt Sherman are
going to have a chance to go away
and weep, for the name of the sue
cessful applicant for the position of
United States marshal is Glen Miller.
The acquaintance he has with McKin-
ley and the endorsements which ne Sc
cured in Kansas, have been potent Be
sides all this, Arthur Brown has been
working for him of late, and that set
tied it conclusively. Brown found
fight on when he got to Washington,
and he used his judgment in the mat
ter and decided to throw his strength
to Miller. The president kept his word
with Brown, and would not appoint
Glen until ne had received assurances
that Brown was satisfied with him, and
that settled it."-Herald, July 8.
This prediction was verified yester-
day, when the news came over the
wires from Washington to the effect
that the president arose yesterday
morning, had a good breakfast, changed
his shirt, sent in the name of Glen Mil
Ter for marshal and then took the train
for Lake Champlain.
Glen has camped with the statesmen
down there, spent his good money and
came off victor Petitions from this
state have proven unavailing, the fact
that candidates were nephews of the
secretary of state and had other pulls
has cur no figure. Staywithititiveness
has won.

making up his Cabinet is confronted
by the fact that leading Senators US,
ually cling to their senatorial seats
while it sometimes happens also that
members of the other House prefer
Congressional life. The very fact,
however, that public life affords an
uncertain career in the United
States, has given us an uncommonly
large contingent Of fairly qualified
men now in private life. who are cap
able on short notice of assuming
public responsibilities. Further
more, we have our forty-fve State
governments giving opportunity for
training in Legislative work and in
public administration ; so that the
number of men who have in some
capacity demonstrated their fitness
for important public work, is vastly
greater than the number that one
fin Is in England.
The E lglish system provides life
long careers for q comparatively
small number of men, who may be-
come very highly accomplished in
their respective fields Of statesman
ship. That system makes it prac-
tically certain that q given set of
men will hold execu tive Office, when
ever their party is in power. Thus,
assuming that the Present Salisbury
regime should hold on for some time
longer, and should then be replaced
by a Liberal government, the merest
novice might now safely write down
the names of eight or ten men who
would certainly be members of the
next Liberal Cabinet. and twenty or
thirty names of men who would at
least belong to the Ministry. If the
Democrats, however, should come
into power IN the United States four
years hence, no one would be so
rash to day as to suppose that he
could intelligently predict a single
member of the next Democratic
Cabinet. No men, under our sys
TEN, have vested rights, so to speak,
to Cabinet seats. If Mr.. Allison or
Mr.. Reed had secured the st. Louis
nomination, either of them would
have composed an excellent Repub.
!ican Cabinet wholly different from
Mr.. McKinley's excellent Republi
can Cabinet. MI. Gladstone's Cabi
net of 1892 was composed mainly of
members of NJ. Gladstone's Cabi-
net which had gone out of office a
full six years previous. Lord Sails
bury's present Cabinet includes
many men who were his ministerial
colleagues more than ten years ago,
the most important changes being
due to the recent absorption of the
Liberal Unionists into the Conserv-
alive government, necessitating
thereby the bestowal of Cabinet
places upon Mr.. Chamberlain, Mr..
Goschen, the Duke of Devonshire,
and some others.-From 1.-THE New
Administration at Washington" by

yiers.

Commonwealth vs.. Swallow.

The trial of DR.. S. G. Swallow of
Harrisburg. Pa, for libel, has de-
veloped sufficient facts to arouse in
the minds of the people of the state.
a suspicion that, at least great ex
travagance has been connected with
the administration of our affairs, if
nothing worse.
While the prosecutors of DR.. Swal
low, succeeded in COMPLETING him on
one of the indictments, yet the ques
ton may be reasonably asked, does
the verdict vindicate those who we're
charged with the extravagant. expen-
diture of public funds7
The guilty are not always convict
ed nor the innocent acquitted. When
charges are made against public Of
ficials such as appeared in "The
Methodist" it would be proper for
those accused, when seeking vindi-
cation by prosecuting the editor for
libel, to throw open the doors, waive
all technical objections and invite
the most searching Investigation.
But this was not done by those who
prosecuted DR.. Swallow. A few Of
the specifications in "The Metho-
dist were selected by the prosecu
tors,-no doubt the ones t they
thought would be the most difficult
to %prove-and assigned as libelous.
The other charges were not referred
to, nor included in the Bills of In
dictment. Why not? Was it be-
cause they believed that DE-. Swallow
could prove them? This is the only
legitimate inference that can oe
drawn from their conduct.
The proof which DR.. Swallow fur.
nished in the trial of the first case,
convinced the jury that, he had not
libeled any one, aud he was acquit-
ted.
The second ease was tried and he
was convicted. This was the east in
which Delaney was involved. The
trial of the case was confined within
such a narrow channel, and limited
by technical objections by Delauey's
counsel that it became very difficult
to ncove the truth. Why did not
Mr.. Delaney, take the witness stand
and subject himself to cross. examin-
alton by DR.. Swallows counsel? He
should have come forward and said,
Il have nothing to conceal, ask me
what you wish" But this he did
not do, and therefore as a public Of
fetal, the verdict surely was no an
swer to the charges preferred against
him.
Have the people of this state gen
orally known that, the rooms of the
State Capital furnished at great ex-
pense, are refurnished every two
years, and the carpets and costly
furniture sold at public auction and
purchased largely by their servants
at aud about the buildings? Surely
not. If they had known it, a storm
of indignation would have risen long
ago. Why should the rooms at the
State Capital be depleted every two
years of their costly fittings and
auctioned off at nominal prices, and
reftted by the same kind of furlli-
ture Mt enormous prices?
If the farmers of our state we're to
adopt such business methods, they
would soon be singing the song,
mo foot of land do we possess,
No cottage in this wilderness"
