general feeling throughout the country that mr williams was not the proper person for BO so exalted a position tinn but the charges made that he Is a thief and others affection afo acting his moral character are simply outrage outrageous and will create a good deal of thy throughout the country for a gen gentleman de thus most unjustly assailed and aud will go far towards condoning the original of his nomination A western exchange 0 puts the matter thus washington Washing tori correspondents agree that tho the real influence that is killing williams in the senate for chi chief C f J justice US ti C a is th the e jealousy of washington women of mrs williams who cannot bear the idea of her b being c 1 the first lady in t the c land Is and to this mixed complexion has this great matter mattei come at last jast both of the above extracts indicate that much of the opposition and the fiercest of it to the appointment of mr williams as chief jus tice is very small business indeed and utterly unworthy of connection with an office of such grave importance to tho welfare of the nation some of the papers have been advocating vo the abolishment of the chief at least as an appointive poin tive office in the power of the president and the senate in accordance with this policy it appears that a bill has been framed and is to be presented to congress at an early day to the above purpose the argument is offered that the supreme court justices themselves should choose one of their own number to act as presiding justice and that such choice would be likely to be more satisfactory to the other members of the court and more creditable to the country try than the selection of a chief justice by the present appointive poin tive method 0 territorial appointments tim THE foll following is a portion odthe of the washington correspondence dated dec 23 of the new kew york merald herald I 1 ona onn on a in matter atterol of great importance to the territories CHANGE TS IN tue THE presidential POLICY OF orun ORUL AP ina lna in a conversation with delegate magin nis of montana tha president announced an important change in his policy of territorial rit orial appointments ile lie said that he be had concluded to reverse his civil service rule made some time ago that except in the cases of judges and indian agents all appointments in the territories should be made froth from the inhabitants thereof that in all the territories the republicans seemed to be divided into two factions ard and if he appointed a republican from one win wing of th the party the other portion deluged lim him with bemons trances and com complaints pla ints in dakota these thise fights had bad been particularly bitter and had resulted most tragically in the death of mccook cCook 31 the secretary of the territory tor ile he had there ther fore come to the that the only way to preserve peace among the federal officers cers and the re republicans of the territories was to appoint appo F nt strangers from the outside who were not identified and who would not become identified with either cither faction on this principle A I 1 smith of new york had recently been appointed surveyor general of montana and I 1 B wham of illinois register Kc gister of tho the land omee office at salt lake city A house divided against itself cannot stand but so long as it does endure it is likely to be full of fights lights and factions still if the members of the republican party in the territories are so disgracefully divided among themselves and quarrelsome oven even unto death 1 we cannot see why the he people 0 of f the territories citizens of the union should be consequently deprived of the righetto right righo to have their local focal authorities chosen from among themselves nor indeed of the right of choosing their own local rulers by the popular or representative voice of the local commonwealth so that we cannot see that President is morally justified as a republican president of a republican nation in ignoring entirely the choice of the people and sending them rulers from froma a distance who are strangers to them and ignorant of them their habits wishes and manner of life if on these alleged grounds it is ii good policy for the president to send stranger officials to rule a territory so it would be for him to send stranger officials to rule a state for part partisan izan politics are quite as bitter in a state as in a territory wo acknowledge that a good official ofil elal cial from a distance is better than a bad official chosen from among neighbors but goodness or badness by no means depends on distance and so long iong as wb are to understand that thea theo the united states is a republic 2 we cannot consistently consi do any other than contend for the rights of the people to choose their own rulers either cither themselves or by their accredited representatives a b thau THAT DOLLAR cow dhe the ahe cow covy eighth a
