Patronage and Committee Places.

According to report. neither the federal
offices nor the committee places in the
House are to be distributed until the mat
ter of tariff revision has been settled.
Bon Mr.. Wilson and Mr. Underwood
want revision that they can claim re-
yises. and knowing the power Of patron
age are resolved to exercise what power
of that kind they possess to the best adj
vantage in the furtherance Of their tariff
program.
They are not mistaken as to the value
OF the means they will employ. The aver
age legislator needs patronage In his
business, and will go far in pursuit OF 1t.
An assignment to the committee on
foreign affairs sets him up at home
nightly. An assignment to the commit
tee on ventilation and acoustics, or on
useless executive papers, may send his
stock at home down to zero. An ONCE
secured for an influential constituent may
mean hundreds of votes at the next cleo
ton, while an ONCE denied may send a
representative into retirement.
Mr. Wilson's part of the performance
may be difficult, and lie might do well to
study Mr.. Cleveiand's embarrassments
twenty years ago under somewhat like
circumstances, iiUS MT. cleveland
came out.
Patronage was necessary at that time
to influence q divided democracy. and Mr.
Cleveland used all he had. But he used 1t
injudiciously. He did not realize suffi-
GENTLY on his stock, Putting the money
question before the tariff question, he
almost emptied his sack of favors be-
fore the tariff was reached. So that,
with his stock practically exhausted for
financial reform, he Was helpless when
he confronted MIR. German on the tariff
question. and became an easy mark for
the Maryland senator.
Mr. Wilson will put the tariff before
the currency question. But when lie
urges the latter question he may find his
party more difficult to handle than on
the tariff. He may then need more
patronage for that than he now needs fol
the tariff.
For this reason the President would dc

New York would have been fortunate. He
would have served there with something
of the same force that Mr.. Root is do
ing. He would have been power in de-
bate, and an ornament to the Senate. In
fact, with Mr.. Black and Mr.. Root as
colleagues. it would have been necessary
to go back some years before finding a

seemed his due. But his part, though
brief, was well played, and his death will

He was a man OF unusual ability. As a

Chairman McCombs.

When it was announced that Mr.. Nc
Combs would decline the French mission
one reason given was that acceptance
would compel his retirement as chair
man of the democratic national commit
tee. Now that it is announced that he
VIII accept the mission it is suggested
that he may hold on to the chairman
ship. and attend TO the duties of both
offices In Paris.
What is so important about the chair
manship' Why should Mr.. McCombs
place, If he does place, such value on it?
What of an untoward character could
happen to him or his friends in the
event of his retirement?
First of all, let us consider the matter
as it may relate to Mr.. Wilson. His flu
ture does not depend on who may or
may not be chairman of the democratic
national committee during the next three
years. His bitterest enemy could not
take the place and use it materially to
his disadvantage.
III the largest measure Mr.. Wilson'S
future is in his own hands. If he scores
d success in the White House, and does
not take himself out of the way, the
chances are ninety-nine i'm hundred
aho't iic " III pc DE dccldnld-
ton. He will not need the assistance of
the democratic national committee to
achieve that end. 1t will come of itself.
On the other hand, If Mr.. Wilson fails
i'll the White House, what democrat with
presidential aspirations will care for the
nomination? Who will make play for the
favor of the national committee? In that
event. will not the nomination go to Mr.
Wilson by default? The national COM
mittee will be of no consequence in the
equation one way or another.
Mr.. McCombs is represented as much
interested in the distribution of patron
age. with certain men in mind who helped
him last year when he was plotting the
Wilson ship in a rough sea. He wants
them remembered now. His solicitude Is
creditable to him. 1t is at once good
politics and square DEALING He feels
himself responsible for their expectations
But he ought to be able to serve them
without remaining in this country, or at
the head of the national committee. Why
not prepare "a little list giving names
services rendered, promises made or I'M
piled, and leave it with the President
for his guidance? Mr.. Wilson has ex-
pressed appreciation of all that Mr.. Nc
Combs as chairman did last year, and
doubtless will be glad and awaits with
pleasure the opportunity. to redeem all
the paper" the latter issued that can be
redeemed without injury to the party's
present interests.
Ambassador MeCombs and Chairman
McCoInbs would hardly mix, and there
is 10 good reason why an attempt to
make them do so should be made If
Mr. McCombs goes to Paris he will have
his hands full there.

Counterfeiting the New Nickel.

Word has reached the Treasury Depart
