atutes relating to the tenure of office and to powers of removal have recently been the subject of much careful study and not alone by those who were inspired by the hope of gaining in or retaining g office wide differences of opinion have been developed develop edi which are quite aside from questions of party policy the presidents power of appointment by and with the advice and consent of of the senate Is derived from the constitution and Is inalienable but that instrument confers no dower power of removal except by implication in the th tenure of office act of mach march 1807 the lawmaking law making power has given an interpretation of the implied power ower of removal in so far as it relates lates to the offices to which appointment are made for fixed axed terms and therein expressly reserves to the senate tile the right of refusing advice and consent to removal the act entitles the appointee to hod bod such office during in the term for which be he was appointed pointed unless sooner removed by and with the advice and consent of the senate or by appointment the like advice and consent of the senate the question arises whether in the absence of any similar provision relating to offices to which no po fixed bermis attached the president has the power of removal without the advice or consent of the senate all of Clev elands appointments to this class of offices where they were not vacant or the in incumbent c um had not resigned have bave been rice cice ioe vice to be removed had be he sent in a nomination vice removed 11 the constitutional rl ht of the executive to

duties of the domce but no power is conferred to make absolute removals the president Is required to make nominations in the of such as are thus suspended to the next session of the senate it Is a question whether in case the senate falls fails or refuses to confirm such nominations the original incumbent Is entitled to return if it be admitted that he is so entitled the question arises has the president power to suspend him the next day or the next hour as in another recess of the senate and thus practically nullify the tenure of office act if the right of the senate to prevent removals from offices which have a fixed term by ref refusing us its consent Is admitted the question arises does not the same right extend to all offices except those which the president and heads of departments are authorized to fill without reference to the senate it is said that eminent republican Ee publican senators in executive session recently maintained in connection with certain nominations made by the president to offices which had no fixed rights that it was the duty of the senate to consider first the qualifications of the incumbent and and decide whether his removal was desirable and only in case of a decision in the affirmative to consider the qualifications of the appointee poin tee this it was urged moreover was in line with the spirit of civil service reform to which ball both parties had given adherence adhe rance and to which the masses were attached several of the nominations which were not acted upon went over because the senate was indisposed to continue the long constitutional discussion to which tho they seemed likely to give lve ive rise I 1 mr garrison appointed to be deputy first comptroller of the treasury is at present of the foreign
