told of their harassed progress through
the surging crowds of men and boys

more of form than of fact" said Mr.
Bacon. Heretofore presidents have
been very largely, if not exclusively,
influenced by the heads of the execu-
tive departments. While presidn5s
have in the past listened TO applicants
they have relied upon their heads Oh
departments in ninety-nine cases out
Of one hundred. The president has
usually exercised the appointive power
only in regard to the more important
offices. l apprehend that in the long
run Mr.. Wilson will pursue practical
ly the same course as has been pu, =
sired by former presidents.
