The re- publicen platform of 1888 repeats its pledge of 1534 that the reform of the civil service “au- ly begun under the republican admin- hall be completed by the further extension of the system, and, taunting Mr. Cleveland with a breach of his promises ia respect to the reform, it declares that “we will not fail to keep our pledges * * © because their candidate has broken his.” Mr. Harrison, in his acceptance of the presidential nomination and in his inaugural address, is equally explicit, He favors a lib- eral interpretation and vigorous enforcement of the existing law, and an extension of the reform. He expresses the opinion that all ap- pointments under the law should be absolutely free from partisan considerations and influ- ence, and that only the interest of the public service should suggest removals. It is now contended by the advocates of the spoils sys- tom that these pledges are merely insincere aute-election promises, made only to be broken, and thatthe party which obtained control of national affairs partly by reason of this pre- tonce should now evade and as soon as possible abolish entirely the application of a system which it has promised to favor and extend. The republican party cannot afford to follow the dishonorable course suggested to it’ The ppinion that the government clerkships with their routine duties should no longer be the spoils of political warfare, that general and special intelligence and not merely political views and services should determine the ques- tion of employment by the government, and that faithful performance of the specific duties for which he is employed should give a clerk a reasonably certain tenure of office, has taken a firm hold upon the public mind. If absurdi- ties or inconsistencies are developed in the methods employed to ascertain the relative in- telligence aud merits of applicants for office, or for retention or promotion in office, the methods must be improved, If injustice is in- flicted through fraudulent evasions or perver- sions or open defiance of the law by particular persons in particular localities, the remedy is not to abolish the law but to punish those who violate itand tosecure its universal enforcement. ‘The spoils system can never again be restored to its former position in the American republic. ‘This nation will not imitate the retiring crab and progress backwards, Under a system by which merit, intelligence and fitness, ascer- tai by sensible methods, are alone consid- ered ia selecting and retaining the mass of government employes, the United States will cure the greatest return for the money which it pays in salarige; the responsible officers of the administration will be more and more relieved from the direct pressure of office- ekers, and be enabled to perform some of the duties of their positions higher than the mere peddling of offices; a source of demoral- ization and corruption in national politics will be gradually removed; and the employes of the goverament, relieved of the harassing uncertainty concerning tenure of office which under the old system no intelligence or fitness or industry could avoid, will be more efiicient workmen and a less unenviable body of citizens. To no other community are the maintenance, development and improvement of the present civil service system of greater local importance than to Washington, Under the merit system, finally established and fully developed in its application, the thousands of clerks at the capital, selected and retained on account of in- nee and fitness, will form a valuable ele- ment in the city’s permanent population, buy- SMALL BOYS’ DRESS SUITS, 67 TO 615, ENTIRELY NEW LINES AND STYLES OF VEST SUITS, WITH SHORT PANTS, 6 TO 16 YEARS.
