Washington. Nov 1S--It

gress meets. it is not deemed
desirable to make adinterim appoint

and in view of the great pressure that
has been brought to bear, it has been
deemed proper to make official
declaration
The president has not hesitated to
inform senators and others who have
applied to him that officer will inn
prove his chances by sending his friends
to annoy the president in his behalf
On the contrary, the effect which will
be produced probably will be directly
opposite to that which the candidate
comes for
The sense and Judgment of public
men will lead them to the same conclu-
sion that arrived at by the president
and secretary of war: that is, if a sys-
tenn of records be thoroughly estah-
lished at the war department., showing
progressive work of officers from year
to year, it will be far better for the
officers and men, we'll public
officials, that such register be made

above enumerated necessitates public
men giving up great deal of their
time in locating the proper office at
which to apply for information and the

1t is fully recognized by public Off
Gals that the proper men in the first
instance to esta blish the character of an
applicant for Office are the senator's and
representa- ives from their own home,
and it is eminently just and proper
that their influence should be respect

the character of the persons recon-
mended for office; but. once in the

ministration that not only army Off

SETS OF TARIFF TINKERS.
Reciprocity--Lower War Duties
Some Changes--Sat!sfed Now.
IMMENSE SURPLUS--TRADE.

Washington Nov 1o=There are four
classes of statesmen now thinking more
less along tariff lines They include:
First-Those who seek the ratifica-
ton of reciprocity treaties now pending
in the senate: and making new treaties
Second-Those who would lower
do away altogether with the internal
revenue duties resulting from the war
tariff.
Third-Thosc who would puncture
holes here and there, it We're, in the
protective system; take duties off steel
products, hides and other articles
Fourth-Those opposed at this time
to any sort of tariff revision OF this
class there are two kinds: Those who
believe tariff agitation and revision
unxise or disastrous at any time; and
those who are Jealous advocates. from
selfish or other motives, of protective
system, and therefore desire things to
remain they are.
Something will probably be done
The demand for action is great The
immense surplus and the commercial
spirit viii probably not be ignored.
This agitation comes from two reaS-
ons:
First-The great surplus now in the
treasury of the United States.
Second-The desire to enter foreign
markets with the products of the coun-
try
The surplus of the [ nited States has
passed about the highest point in his

favor of the country-that is, the Uni

the war revenue law makes this pos
Sible It is thought that the war rev
enue could be curtailed some so million
annually, and still leave comforta bic
and efficient margin on which to go.
The inroads manufacturers of the
United States have made into foreign
countries has so aroused the CONNER
1aI interests of the country that they
are demanding some sort of regulations
whereby they may even more freely
enter foreign markets.
