There is such a thing as 'Senatori . al Courtesy.' - This senatorial courtesy 'it seems entitles the Senator to name x the postmaster who is , to - preside- over ? his home postoffice, regardless of change .': ; in the' political complexion of the - ad- ministration.' A few days ago Mr. ,vWanainaker removed ..the Democratic incumbent of Laurel postoffice, Mary ' land, which is Senator Gorman's post office.

The Attorney Generalship is quite as much of a "gift" as Mr. Harri son tought to dispose of in that direction.
