Annual Address of George William Curtis to the Leagne at N Newrort, R. L, August 3—The session of the National Civil-Service Reform League was opened with a public meeting at 11am, George William Curtis dettvered ts annual address. MF.

Hill for the resignation of the New York State Civil-ervice Comnitssioners, ag evidences of legislative and executive reaction. ne, wrierence to Mr. Cleveland's administration “J regret to say that during the two years and five months of its existence, while the reform law has been respected within its limited range, and while there are unquestionable and encouraging signs of progress, yet, according to information which is undoubtedly authentic, there has been A VERY SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE CIVIL SERVICE. Jn some of the Departinents at Washington this 4s less apparent than elsewhere, But in a survey of the whole service there has been almost as com- plete a change as was practicable, since an entirely new force of totally inexperienced oNicers would have prevented tie regular transaction of the public business, ‘Practically, 1 repeat, there has been a very gen~ eral partisan’ recoustruction of the nattonal civil service, But while such a change was the un- doubted desire and expectation of a large and tn portant part of the supporters of the President at the polls, 1 do not believe that 1t was destred or anticipated by the intelligent sentiment of the country.” IN BHEALF OF THE PRESIDENT. He does not charge the whole responsibility for this upon the President who, he says, “has un- doubtedly believed that unbending fidelity to re- form would lead to the rupture of his party, the alienation of its majority in the House of Repre— sentatives, and his consequent complete poittical isolation and total inability to serve reform orany other good cause or to make his administration, truly useful to his country. “The trouble,” says Mr, Curtis, “Is not that ap- Polntments have been unfit so Much as that re- Inovals Were not required by reform. It must be remembered that the substitution of a fit demo- erat for a ft republican, merely for the reason that he 1s a democrat, is the very evil that reform would correct.” A PARTING WORD. In concluston Mr, Curtis said: “That cause is al- Ways safe which is in sympathy with great moral forces, with the common seuse and intelligence of the people, with the earnest faith and patriotic Purpose of’ youth, with the lessons of experience, and with Ule convictions of wise and pure states: men; and know no cause in this country of which this may be more truly said than of civil- service reform.” MR. CURTIS RE-ELECTED PRESIDENT. A business meeting was held, and Mr. George ‘Willlam Curtis was unantmously re-elected prest- dent, and accepted the office in a few brief re- marks, Reports from the various associations Were made. Mr. Montgomery, of Pennsylvania, detailed the ‘controversy with! the postiuaster of Philadelphia over the examinations in oice, | Mr. Dorman 8. Eaton inquired if there was proof that out of 104 appotntnents In the post-oftice of Phil- adelphia 192 were democrats, Mr. Montgomery replied that a canvass made by the association showed that thts was true, Mr. Story reported for Massachusetts, It was obvious, that nothing 15 to be gained there from either party. Mr. Grover, of Chicago, reported his Clation was reduced to two hundred, but in ana tive condition, The association 13 convinced of the necesrity of some restriction tn the power of removal. SOMETHING ABOUT HIGGINS. Mr. Bonaparte, of Baltimore, was called upon to tell something about Higgins. He thought, how- ever, that Higyins might be left alone until the re- Port of the committee on the resolution was. re- celved, as he would probably form a large part of the report. He heard it sugzested that President Cleveland destred the reform system to lave an awiul exainple, and had selected the tederal system of Maryland as that example. If so he thought the cXperiment had been successful. jit committee on resolutions reported aS fol- Ow The National Civil Service Reform League, While acknowledging the many excellent appoint. ments made by the present adiivistration, tho frequent Instances of executive disregard: merely “partisan demands, and _couspi instances of the reteution of 5 officers during their terms has yet learned with profound regret that the change in the civil service 1s so great as to forecast Its complete partisan reconstruction by the close of the ‘administration. ‘The league does not. be- lieve ‘such @ change to have been required nor Justified by the public destre or expectation, geo THE CATHOLIC Toran aBSTI- NENCE UNION, Seventeenth Annual Convention in Philadelphia—the Delegates wi tend High Mass at the Cathedral.

When the tucrease of 20 per cent was added to our water rates in 1880, I protested against it to Water Registrar Thomas C. Cox, who soon after died, Mr. Cox answered my protest by saying that ‘$85,000 of the water fund had been taken for use of the general fund and never returned. If the diversion of the water fund to the amount of $55,000, for use of another fund, caused the advance in'"thé rates at that time, may not a similar use of that fund be the catise of the present increase in our Water rales? I ask for informa. Uon, IU seems to me this matter should be 1n- vestigated, and if what Mr. Cox told me in 1890 {urned out to be true, then measures should be taken to reimburse thé water fund by act of Con- gress for Unts $85,000 illegally taken frow the water fund, Which Tund, I believe, is required by act of Congress to be’kept sacréd for Uke sole use Of the Water department, MICHAEL BR.
