MANY do not stop to think how sell
dom have government officials gone
astray compared with their opportuni-
ties and temptations for wrong doing.
In the hundred and twenty-five years
of our national life few of the men in
high positions have been actuated by
Dther than the highest and most patri.
ptic motives This should cause our
people to hesitate to accept charges
Of base conduct against their public
bervants without investigation and
proof
THE press and magazines of the
country for many months have been
hlled with charges against the pres.
snt secretary OF the interior and his
conduct Of the Office he holds. These
charges range from petty insinuations
and tnnuendoes to direct charges of
malfeasance and misconduct in office
which, II true, show that he has most
unwcrthily discharged his trust A
moments thought should cause an
honest and fairminded man to hest
tate to accept such charges against a
man whose whole life heretofore has
been one Of the highest rectitude and
agaig]st whom no dishonorable charge
has ever been made in either private
or public life.
Says Ra!lnger Made Sacrifice.
Such man is the present secre
tary OF the interior. He is over &c
years Of age, an honored graduate Of
Williams college and a lawyer of dis

conversation. Representative Humph-
rey (Wash.) was one of the three
present and one or both of the others
were congressman. Before making the
matter public he had conferred with
Senator Clapp from his own state, also
an insurgent. He did not desire, he
said, to precipitate any final break, but
he had merely repeated remarks which
he considered were official and author
tatiye.
Cooper and Lenroot Fail.
Representatives Cooper and Lenroot
of Wiscontin are also said to have
filed recommendations for patronage
upon which no action has been taken.
Neither would discuss the matter last
night, but it is known that their po-
sition is similar to that of Representa-
tive Miller.
Postmaster General Hitchcock was
silent on the whole subject, nor would
any other official representing the
administration say word about it.

the party leaders toward insurgent

ICE PREVENTS RIVER TRIP.
Steamer Makes Effort to Deliver De.
layed Freight.

The managers of the Potomac and
Chesapeake Steamboat Company yester-
day made an unsuccessful effort to send
boat to down-river points with the
freight that had accumulated in the
warehouses here and at Alexandria since
the steamers were forced to suspend op
erations about two weeks ago. The
steamer City of Milford, the propeller
boat purchased by the company about q
month ago at Norfolk, was started on
the trip. No trouble was experienced,
although the river was full of heavy ice,
until the steamer was short distance
above River View, where there was a
heavy ice gorge several feet deep, one
cake upon another, packed by the north
west winds and the ebb tide. Into this
mass the steamer made its way, rammins
The ice aside until an unusually heavy
obstruction was found, and there she

For three hours she endeavored to force
her way through it. but without success,
and shortly before O'Clock yesterday
evening she returned to this city. An
other effort will be made within a day or
two to send a steamer to the dOwn-rver
landings.
The NJ, D. and V. line steamer Anne
Arundel, from Baltimore and lower Po-
ran into the gorge that held the City
of Milford and she remained in the ice
until the Norfolk and Washington line
steamer Newport News, on her Way tC
this city, crashed through the gorge
The Anne Arundel then came on to this
city. She will leave here this afternoon
at o'clock on her return trip.
