1nE NEW POSTMASTER

Although the Senate adjourn
cd without acting on a number
Of the Presidents appointments,
Including that OF pr William l..
Marcy as Postmaster OF Annapc-
lis, a recess appointment, it is cx-
pccted, will follow. SO that the
formality Of Senate confirmation
will simply be deferred until the
next session OF Congress.
II every vacancy in pub
lie office could be filled as salts
factorily as that in the Annapolis
postmastership, then the prcce-
dure employed, not counting thc
delay in confirmation, ought to
be universally commended and
followed wherever practicable.
Instead Of an outright political
appointment, as might have been
expected under this SYSTEM, the
naming of DR.. William l.. Marcy
not merely measured up to the
requirements from that angle
but above that, furnishes Strong
argument for civil service by
making just about as excellent
choice for fitness and eligibility
as could have been made.
1t was a foregone conclusion,
OF course, that the successful APP
plicant would be Republican,,
for even civil service proponents
are human. and that. while EFF
hcicncy" was supposed to be the
watchword. it was to be under
stood only in the language of the
&. @. y. 1t is tribute to that
party, however, that it furnished
a list Of applicants from which
could be drawn such a trio OF
eigibles as Messrs. Marcy. Arm
strong and Robinson. Any one
OF them would have done credit
to the Office, but without dispar-
aging the others. DR. Marcy fill
the bill about acceptably from !
every standpoint as anybody mi
the county.
We extend to him our heart |

wishes. and in this we feel surei
