NO NOTICE OF CONTEST SERVED IN THE NEW HAMP- SHIRE CASE, AND NO TESTIMONY FILED IN THE CONTEST AGAINST MK. CARLISLE, Gen.

Under the law the clerk 1s required to notify the parties as to when he will open the testimony. Reptesentative-clect McKinney, of the Manchester district, in New Hampshire, in Gen. Clark's office several days ago, made the ‘statement that he had never been served with any notice of contest by Mr. Hayne his defeated competitor. “Mr. McKenney said that nothing in the shape of a notice of contest had ever been served upon him, and as the time pre- scribed by law for the sending of suc notice had expired long ago he concluded that the idea of contest had been abandoned.

A Talk With Representative Payson. HESAYS THE ATTITUDE OF THE ADMINISTRATION ON ‘THE LANDS QUESTION HAS STRENGTHENED THE PRES- IDENT IN THE WEST, BUT THE FLAGS BUSINESS WAS UNFORTUNATE FOR HIM—THE DEMOCRATS BOUND TO ‘RE-NOMINAWE HIM—AS TO THE REPUBLICAN CANDI- DATE. Representative Payson is in the city on a patri- otic mission in connection with the restoration of the so-called “indemnity” lands to settlement, ‘Monday and to-day were the days set by the Inte- Tior Department for the railroads to show cause ‘Why these “Indemnity” lands should not be opened to settlement, and Mr. Payson 1s here to give the Department the benefit of his knowledge upon the subject, and to help fight the railroads. A Stax reporter called upon him to-day at his lodgings. He says he is perfectly satisfied with the way that land matters are being handled by this adminis. tration, He is confident that the indemnity lands Will be reopened to settlement, and this, together with the forfettures, will make about 000 Sores of land restored to the pubic. domatn. He Says the action of President Cleveland in the Gil- ford Miller case, in writing to the Secretary of the Interior the letter he did, which brought about ac- ton upon the whole mutter of restoring the in- demnity lands, has added greatly to his strength in the West. ‘THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR IN ILLINOIS, he said, are all very well pleased at the Prest- dent’s attitude in this matter, I know them; many of their leaders are my personal friends, and I know how they feel. ‘They are patting the Pres- ident on the back, and are well satisfied with him. vote for Cleveland. ‘THE FLAG BUSINESS 1s going to do Cleveland harm. It was a very fool- ish and unaccountable action, and the sentiment ‘that it affronted is strong. It will lose him many soldier votes. * * * “But,” he continued, «Mr. Cleveland has tried honestly to give the country an honest busines’ administration, and 1 do not hesitate tosay so wherever Igo. Sim up all the defects in his administration, and still you are fairly obliged to acknowledge this, It will not do for our folks (the republicans) to underrate his strength. He 18a strong and a formidable oppo- nent. The democrats ‘are bound to renominate him, and he will make it hot for any candidate we nominate.” 48 TO THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE. “Who do you think the republican candidate will bet" THe Star man asked. “Oh, 1t 13 too soon to say, perhaps. 1 db not much’ think {t will be elther ‘Sherman or Blaine.

CAN THE PRESIDENT REMOVE HIM? Hearing in the Case of Justice Oliver. ARGUMENTS IN THE COURT IN GENERAL TERM TO-DAY— ‘WHAT IS CLAIMED BY THE UNITED STATES—ANSWER OF THE RESPONDENT TO THE PETITION OF WRIT OF QUO WARKANT. Yesterday the case of the United States agt. John N. Oliver Was argued in the Court in General Term by District Attorney Worthington for the Govern- ment and Mr. A. B. Duvall for the respondent. A petition was fled for a writ of quo warranto to show by what warrant Oliver claims to hold, use and exercise the office of justice of the peace after having been removed therefrom by the President of the United States on April 20 last. The re- spondent denies his removal, and says the com- munication of removal was unauthoritative, in. sufictent and vold, for the power to remove him 1s vested exclusively in the Court in General Term. The Government filed a demurrer to this answer, and on this was the hearing. “The Government, contonded that tt was not tn- tended by Congress, in enacting the clause of the act of 1863, Incorporated as section 1031, R. 8. D. C., to take away the President's power of removal. (This section provides “That justices of the peace may be removed by the court to be organized under the provisions of thisact as a General ‘Term, &c.) It also claims that It does not take away’ the power given by the President to make removals in the act of 1823; that the power to remove 4s given in the act of June 7, 1878; and if 1 1s held that.Gopgress intended to confer the power.on the court, thay the section, 1031, 18 vold, it attempts to impose on the court a power not Of a judiciat nature. ‘The respondent contended that the office 18 partly judicial and partly executive, and not political office in any sense. He quotes Chief Jus- ce Marshall's opinion in the case of United States agt. Marbury, in which he decided that the Presi- dent could not remove a justice appointed under ‘the act of February 27, 1801, and that when the President has made the appointment he has exer- cised his whole power. After quoting the a Uon on the subj he states that the orga ct of February 21, 1871, transferred the autnority to appoint persons to the governor, The act of Jan- uary 7, 1878, restoring the power of appointing to the President 18 given, and then the law under which he holds office. ‘This enacts: “That the President of the United States shall nominate, and, by and with the consent of the Senate, appoint firteen justices of the within aud forthe District of Columbia. Their term of office shall be four years, subject to removal for cause. ‘They shall respectively have the jurisdic- tion, exercise the powers and functions, and per- form the duties as now provided by law for said officers respectively.

Upon the death or removal of any justice of the peace appointed under this act, his docket, books, and papers of ofice shall be delivered to his Immediate successor In office.” Another sec- Hon provides for the appotntinent of constables for the District, not exceeding twenty, to hold office for four years “subject to be removed by ‘said court for canse, uy hearing.” Another pro- vides that the Supreme Court of the District fix the amount and form of bond for constables and approve the same; and another gives the Pres- ident power to appoint as many commissioners of deeds throughout the United States, and notaries public within the District as he might deem neces- ‘sary, “removal at discretion.” He says this act preserves the integrity and con- gruity of the system, leaving officers whose powers are relat to the judiciary to be con- trolled by the court, which had already that power by express grant, and no such power was iven the President ‘He contends that this court iid not consider sections 1030, 1031, Revised stat- utes, D.

His office is his property.
