WfilDNESDAlC JL > EGEMB.ttR 6 . . - r ? /-MV/I / A THE DAU.Y . MAJtlA TUJtoJJAi from the course which has beanpur - luod under recent ndtninlstrat ons of the government. The facts Are aa follows : The whole number of ox ocutiro appointments during the four years immediately preceding Mr. Q rfiold'g assassination was 2G9G , , of this number 244 , or ! ) per cent , In volved the removal of previous incum bents. The number of removals to the whole number of appointments must bo the tame during each of these \ four yoara. In the firsi year there wcro 700 appointments and 74 remov als , or 03 per cent ; in the second , 017 appointments , thnro wore 85 removals , or 85 per cent ; in the third , with 480 appointments thcro wore 48 removals , or 10 per cent ; in the fourth , with 429 appointments there wcro 37 re movals , or 8(5 ( per cont. In the four months of President Gariiold's admin istration there wore 290 appointments and 81) ) removals , or 1)2 ) per cont. Precisely the same number of remov als has taken place in the fourteen months which have since elapsed , bat they constitute only aavcn eighths per cent of the whole number of appoint , incuts , ono and ono < cghth ! , within that period , and less than two-sixths of the entire list of officials , 3450 , ex clusive of the army and navy , which is tilled by presidential appointment. I declare my approval of such legisla tion as may bo found necessary for supplanting the existing provisions of law in relation to US POLITICAL ASSESSMENT'S. In July last I authorized a public announcement that employes of the government should regard themselves at liberty to exercise their pleasure in making or helping to make political contributions or refusing to make con tributions and that their action in that regard would in no manner affect L- their official status. In this announce ment I acted on the view which I had always maintained and still maintain that public officer a should bo abso lutely free to give or withhold a con tribution for the aid of the political party of his choice. It has , however , been urged , and doubtless not with out foundation , that by the ( solicita tion of superiors and by other modes Mich contributions have at limes boon obtained from persons whoso only mo- tiyn for giving has boon fear of what might bo fall thorn if they rofuiod. It I > OI > R without Haying that sued contri butions are not voluntary. In my judgment their collection should bo prohibited by law. A bill which will effectually suppress them will receive my cordial approval. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. THE KIO1IT OF SUFFRAGE. I hope that , however urgent and nu merous may bo the demands on your attention , the interests of this district will not bo forgotten. The denial to its residents of the graat right of but- frago in its relations to national , atato and municipal aotious imposes an congress - gross the duty of affording the best administration which its wisdom can doviae. The report of the district commissioners indicates certain meas ures whoso adoption would seem to ba very desirable. I iaatanco in particu lar these whtch relate to arrears of taxes of steam railroads , and to the assessment of real property. MISCELLANEOUS. THE ELECTORAL COUNT. Among the questions which have boon the topio of r-acout debate in the halls of congress , none are of greater gravity than those relating to the as certainment of the vote for presidential electors , and the amendment of the constitution in its pro visions for devolving executive functions upon the vice president whoa the president suffers from Ina bility to discharge the powers and du ties of his office I trust that no om- barraasment may result from a failure to determine those questions before another national election. THE CLOSING YEAH has been replete with blessings which \ we ewe to the giver of all gootl ; for the uninterrupted harmony ot our fproign relations ; for the death of sec tional animosities ; for the abundance of our harvests and the triumphs of our mining and manufacturing inter ests ; for the prevalence of health ; for the spread of intelligence and the conservation of the public interest ; for the growth of the country in all elements of national greatness for those and countless other blessings wo ahould rejoice and bo glad. I trust that under the inspiration of this great prosperity our counsels may be harmonious , and that the dictates of prudence , patriotism , justice and economy may be the adoption of measures in which the congress and the executive may heartily unito.
