Gag Order" Resented.

The Presidents "gag ORDER" issued
to members of his Cabinet through Sec
rotary Loeb on the day of the Presi-
dents departure on his Southern trip,
was the subject of discussion at the Cabi-
net meeting yesterday. This was the
first Cabinet meeting held since the
Presidents return, and therefore the first
opportunity for discussion of this ques-
ton between the President and all of
his Cabinet assembled together.
1t has been we'll understood that some
members Of the Cabinet have felt a sense OF
humiliation on account Of this order State.
ments as to how the question was first brought
up conflict. but il appears that Secretary Will
son introduced the subject and that Secretary
BOnaparte and two or three others in the
Cabinet made remarks. The general attitude
OF the members of the Cabinet tOwari the
order comes as near being contemptuOus as
Difference to the President and regard for
their relations with him will admit.
The discussion yesterday was principally
in the form of dign' fed and courteous inquiry
on the part Of members Of the Cabinet as to
the purpose and meaning of the order, and a
very full and insistent explanation and de-
Itnef VI u ny the lUtFt was no
manifestation Of violent antagonism. but il was
madr apparent to the PRESIDENT that some Of
his advisers regarded the order as Ill advised
and impracticable in application.
The reflection upon individuals Of the
Cabinet implied in the order was passed over
with the reserve which is common among
gentlemen in de- ling with a question inyolv-
ing their own dignity, but It was manifest
that the order was resented aud the President
was placed on the defensive, with IN effort
on his part 10 argue tine nec' ssity Of the or or.
The upshot Of the discussion was that the
President insisted that il should stand, though
in effect It was modified by explanation so as
in Cabinet meeting. 1t was made perfectly
plain to the President that members Of his
c binet would insist on exercising the own
discretion as to The discussion of matters re-
lating 10 their own deDartments

The STATE election will take place
Tuesday. The republicans have waged
an active campaign for the past two
months, and have succeeded in arousirg
the members of that political party to co
their utmost next Tuesday. Chairman
Ellysou, Secretary Button and those
who are actively identified with the
democratic campaign have no fear Of the
result, save that the democrats are show
ing little interest in the result. The
democrats can and will carry the State,
but there is reason to fear surprises and
the Indifference of the people in the
election may contribute to the defeat Of
good democrats and place in Office people
who are not the choice of the majority
of the voters. Chairman Ellyson has
issued an address in which he calls upon
tie voters to do their duty. 1t is a
strong paper and should arouse all dem
ocrats to action. 1t sets forth clearly
how excellently the democrats have sd-
ministered the affairs of the State
