WABHINQTOH LETTER.
rrom our Regular correspondent.)
Washington, Feb. 11, 1889
Mr. Clovcland has removed Civil
Sorvioo Commissioner Edgerton and
nominated Hugh S. Thompson of
South Carolina, to suoceed him. Mr.
Thompson is assistant Secretary of tho
Treasury at present and a very warm
friend of the President. Tho removal
of Mr. Edgerton was not a surprise to
any one at all familiar with the work
ing of tho commission. It had sovcr
al limes been intimated to him that his
resignation would bo accepted, but he
refused to take the hint, and dually
when tho President asked him in plain
lauguago to resign he deolined to do so,
and the removal f-llowcd. Mr. Edger
ton is a good man, but holding tho
opinions be does he should never have
accented tho office in llio first place.
The renio al leaves only ono Commiss
ioner in office, and uo is a Jieiraoiioan.
For tint reason it is thought that the
Senate will confirm Mr. Thompson, as
the law provides for a Democrat on
tho board, and there is another vacancy
into which Gen. Harrison can put aRc-
uublicati.
Representative Springer thinks his
"Omnibus" b ll will yet gel through in
spite of tho fact that three, if not mro.
Republican Senators will vote with the
Dcmocvatio Senators to admit Now
Mexico. I shall only believo it when
thev do it.
Tho report of tho Treasury experts
on tho tariff bill shows that outside of
tbe internal revenue features the meas
ure will only mako a reduction of from
three to five millions of dollars. Tbe
House Waj8 nnd Means Committee
will report tho bill this week, with a
recommendation that it bu reieoted.
Just what will follow if it is rejected it
is iliflioult to sav. The internal roven
ue features of tho bill aro satisfactory
to quite a number ot Democrats in the
House, and unless thov can be satisfied
that tho Cowlos bill, repealing tho
tobacco tax, now in tbe hands of Mr.
Randall's committee, or a similiai one
will be immediately reported to the
House, I shall not be surprised to see
the Senate bill adopted. And I uelieve
that its adoption would create far
more dissatisfaction among Republi
cans than Democrats.
Senator Vest is going to have somo
fun with tho Republican Senators
when tho Senate conferees on tbe
Springer "Omnibus" bill make their re
port to the Senate. Mr. Vest will
prove by tho record that in 1875, when
New Mexloo was thought to bo a Re
publican, that many Republicans now
in the Senate voted in the House for
the admission of that territory along
with Colorado. Now he wants to
know why theso same men oppose the
admission of that territory. The in
ferenoo is very plain to Senator Vest
and every body else.. New Mexico is
now Dcmocracio. 'What care these
Republican Senators for consistency
when party interests are at stake.
There is a movement here which is
said to have the President's approval,
to have Senator Kenna withdrawn
from the contest in West Virginia.
Tbe idea is that it is impossible to
have Senator Kenna re-elfcted, and
that some other Democrat may be
elected, thus saving tho seat to the
party. As a compensation it is pro
posed that the President shall nomiuate
Mr. Kenna Inter-State Commissionsr,
"Senatorial courtesy'' making it certain
that he would be immediately confirm
ed. Secretary Bayard bas once more be
come a target for criticism. He bas
demanded tho resignation of II. H.
Sewall, U. S. Consul General to Samoa.
Mr. Sewall has reoently ben a witness
before tho foreign Committees of the
House and Senate, and in his testimony
regarding Samoan Matters he took
occasion to express opinions criticising
the Department of State in Bomewhat
severe rainner. Whether Mr. Bayard
has done right or wrong in compelling
him to resign al this time is a question,
but like the rest of us, Mr. Bayard is
human, and bas punished his subordi
nate officer for indiscretion. Anybody
might have done the same thing nnder
tbo same circumstances.
So after the fourth of March Mr.
Cleveland will resumo the practice of
law, in New York city. It is said that
this is the preliminary step to his be
ing sent (o tbe Senate as successor to
Senator Evarts whose term will oxpire
in 1891. This is very remarkable if
the Democrats can meced in capturing
tbe.leg'iBlature of New York as they
expect to do. At any rate it is safe to
eay that a man of Grover Cleveland's
experience, pluck and back-bone will
not be allowed to remain in private
life.
The President has sent tbo bill mak
ing an Executive Department of tho
department of Agriculture to the At
torney General for an opinion as to its
Constitutionality. This action has
caused the circulation of tbo report
