There have been two secretaries Of

General under Mr.. Roosevelt. There
will. in the near future, be new SecFe-

Postmaster General, new Attorney Cen
eraI. and a new Secretary Of Commerce
and Labor. Total, twents-three. But
only sixteen different individuals have
been required to make up this total of
twenty-three different Cabinet place
holders.
President Cleveland got through eight
years as President with cnly twenty-one
Cabinet members. and at that he made
a complete reorganization between his
first and second administration, not re-
tanning in his second Cabinet a single
man who sat IN the first. and having
only two men-Richard Olney and WI
liam T. Vilas-serve IN two positions.
MIR. Olney was at the head OF both the
Department Of Justice and the Depart
ment of State during the second Clcve-
land Administration. Mr.. Villas was
Postmaster General and also Secretary
of the Interior during the first Cleveland
Administration.
Thus President Cleveland employed a
