Dr. GraYson's Nomination

 There may be difference between the Grayson case and the English scandal yet there is so much of a likeness that the former recalls the latter Dr. Grayson is q comparatively young who had made no special mark in his profession had given promise oi making mark He was hardly heard of in the country until after the second marriage of the presi- dent when the country learned that Dr Cravson had become the presidents physician his official physician. We have no doubt that if the president were visited by very physical affllction he would fall back physician who attended him before he had heard of Dr. Grayson. It was later learned that Dr. Grayson related by marriage to the presidents second wife
 The project of doing something handsome for Dr. Grayson was started early last fall amid the uncer tanties of d presidential campaign The handsomest thing the president could for his favorite was to nominate him for ear-admiral, jumping him from priVate life over some hundreds of naval officers That was done and the nomination was sent in ahead of all others so that they could not be acted upon with out the senate having acted upon the nomination of Dr. Grayson.
 We believe that in all the history of our govern ment there had been such an exhibition of favoritism. It which would tend further to deInorallze an already disturbed naval system
