It ia well knowo that the administration
of the Treaaury Department by Secretary
Biohardaoa—particularly bta Inattention
to hie duly or careless indUfersaoa in tha
matter of the Banbora contracts—has
beau made tha aabjaat of investigation
by Congress, - and that many members
have freely eoodemaed hie ooadnoL It
haa been eteled, without any oontredlo-
tion which we have seen, that the oom-
mities lately investigating tbe nutter bed
agreed lo report e resolution oensnring
Biohardaon, eud only delayed doing so to
give him an opportunity to resign. His
resignation under snob circmnstenoea is
certainly not an event that ought to oom-
mend him lo the appointment te another
high end responsible position—particularly
suoh a prompt appointment as would
amount to a Presidential end Beaatoriel
vindication of the Bearetary from the
charges made against him. The troth is
he retires from the Treasury Department
“under n cloud," and the President’s at
tempt to lift it by nominating him for the
veonnt Judgeship of the Court of Claima
ie too apparent to be ignored. The Sen
ate can heidly ignore it We feeleatie-
fied that a nomination made under suoh
ciroumetaaoee will be reeieted in the Sen
ate, end we truet that the resistance will
be so strong ea to show the Premdaut that
mere personal or party favor cannot pro
cure such an indirsot but unmistakable
an endorsement of the administration oj
a Cabinet offloer who had to resign to
