WASHINGTON LE EE.
-
our regular correspondent.
Senators Vcorhees, Gorman and
Palmer, at different times this week
took occasion to defend Presi ieut
Cleveland from the newspaper charge,
which Senator Stewart mistakenly dig
nified by reading in tho Senate, of at
ttmptii.g by the . use of patronage to
control the legislative branch of the
government. Of course everybody in
Washington knuwd us well as these
three Senators do that President Cleve
land needs uo defense, but there may
be people else where who are liable to
be miled by constant reiteratiou of
the ckarge. When Senator Palmer
told Senator Stewart that if he would
name one Senator who had been con
trolled by the President through pat
ronage he would gladly join hi ai in
getting a resolution passed providing
for su investigation, Senator Stewart
did not name a Seuator. Why ? Simply
becase he knows of none. Senator Gor
man's few remarks on the subject cov
ered the case fnllv. He s-id : "I am
not the mouthpiece ot the President.
His patronage I Ulow nothing of or
care nothing for. I neither have it
nor want it. No President has ever
been so envf ul to avoid the appearance
of distributing patronage fur his own
ends. He lias scarcely done his party
justice."
Everybody has heard of that fre
quently mentioned article "Senatorial
courlcsv" .but with ah due respect to
the eminent and dignified gentlemen
who compose the U. S. Senate it must
be said that "Senatorial dW-ourtesy'
inore ti uly applies to the numetous
ktifts" between Senators which have
been such a feature of the debate this
week. Space forbids their enumeration,
but one specimen will give a general
idea of all of them.. Senator Woicoit

it greenlacks to increase the currency
in circulation. The chairman of the
committee has been requested to ob

from the various State governments on
the subject of the State banks.
The sensational statements concern
ing the nomination of Mr. J. J. Van
Alen to be Ambassador to Italy will
doubtless be investigated by the Sen
ate committee on Foreign Relations
before his nomination is acted upon.
No one believes that either President
Cleveland or ex-Secretary Whitney was
a party to any promise made to give
Mr. Van Alen tins position because of
his having made a large campaign con
tribution, and an iuvetiation will
probably show that no such promise
was made by anybody.
