The question of selecting a presi

several prominent gentlemen have
been mentioned in that connection.

A report having gone out from
Washington that. Georgia would got
a place in President-elect, Cleveland’s
cabinet—ell her postmaster-general,
nttornoy-gencrai or commissioner of
agdoultitfe if her congressinmi cun
unite upon mul )iivsent some one
limn, but so far had failed to harm
onize, led tlie Atlanta Joiirnul corre
spondent to make an investigation
and, of course, found it to ho u bun
dle of silly twaddle. He says:
“My investigation among our wor
thy delegation failed to show uny
beavor-liku work, any faction^, liny
visible" rivalry, or any disposition to
volunteer aid to Mr. Cleveland in Ins
O.ktmiot selection. * * “On the
contrary, the opinion is dominant
that Mr. Cleveland knows whom he
wishes for his advisor and when, to
address them."
If Mr. Cleveland has intlninlcd to
thu Georgia members or any other
delegation of congressmen what his
purposes aro or will bo in the selec
tion of his cabinet officers, bp is not
the Urovor Cleveland tlie pimple
elected to ho president of the United
Btutes—the Cleveland who bus ever
shown a courage of his convictions,
who Inn! a policy nmt tlm manhood to
maintain it. despite liny pressure that
could he brought to txmr against him.
Notwithstanding the many fakir
stories emanating in and coming out
from Washington relative to Mr.
Cleveland mid his cabinet-making,
all without tangible foundation to
rest upon, there is a strong under-
i uncut of opinion that Georgia will
receive a cabinet appointment under
Cleveland. The opinion seems to be
built.upon the theory that the South
should have at least out 1 representa
tive in tlie cabinet, anil Giwgiu per
force of her prominence as ft southern
lioiltired.
