This nian ts more reasonable than any of tho othors that haya been suggested, and it would be ac. cepted as a proper procedure if it had been tho practice of the Government to call the Vice-Prestient to the. Chief Magtistracy dur- Ing the temporary absence or illness of the President. But this course has never been pursted, and overy Vice-President who has stceceded a President has refused to ne knowledge his position nsthat of Acting Pros- ident, but has claimed the full dignity of tho office. It must be admitted, too, that It would be a dangerous precedont to confer upon the Vice-President In any emergency tho right to decide for hinwelf when he may step Into the office of President. Such o course Would open up much larger opportu- nities for intrigue’ nnd villainy than now oxint. An examination of this question of “ina: billty’? only leads to doubt and confusion, There ig no clear way to its solutlon, and thore never will be until Congress shall pro- vide for the temporary succession of tha Vice-President under woll-defined conditions. It ts to be hoped that the present emergency may pass without requirlug n test in regard to “{nability.” There is no doubt that the affairs of the Government insy be adinints- terad several weoks morans they have been during tha past eight weeks without apy serious embarrassnient, Presidents Johuson, Grant, and Hayes wore accus- tomed to absent themselves from the seat of Government during considera. ble periods without Injury to the public interests, [t fs ntnost cartatn that within a few weoks more President Garfield will clther have died or will reach a state of con- valescence in which he will ve able to por- form alt the duties of’ the office to which his personal attention Is Indispensable. Hs siex- ness, however, fins given a warning to Cone gress that it should speclfically define by lw when and how “inability” shall bo deter- mined, and provide for temporary jdminis- tration of tha Executive offlee.
