CITY AND_DISTRICE @ Fair dealing has always been the motto of Tue Eveyrsa Star. “A dollars’ worth in return for every doliar received” is the principle upon which its business is con- ducted. Advertisers usually get from ten to one bundred dollars for every one invested in ts advertising columns, THE CIVIL SERVICE LAW. Mr. Lodge Defends It from the Charge That It Is Un-American. After Tae Stan's report of the House pro- seedings closed yesterday Mr. Lodge made a defense of the civil service principle in reply to attacks by Mr. Spinola, Mr. Grosvenor and others who attack the reform as a humbug and un-American. ‘What is really un-American and unrepublican,” he said, “‘are the favor- itism and the nepotism of the patronage sys- tem, which must be destroyed by some such means as this law if by no other way. I think it is un-American to see the representatives of the American people hunting up and down the corridors of the departments to obtain an office for some friend. But they are obliged to do it. We are obliged to do it one and all without ex- ception. Gentlemen under the patronage sys- tem are compelled to take care of the interests of their constituents and to see that they have at least a fair chance. They cannot avoid it if they would. It is this which is not American, nor anything else that is respectable or decent or mauly, this practice which compels the great officers of the government to give hours and days when a new administration comes in to personal appeals and political appeals and everything of that sort, and which makes § ators and Representatives wait hour after hour in the hope of picking up a clerkship or mes- sengership for somebody. NOTHING AMERICAN ABOUT IT. “Mr. Chairman, the patronage and spoils system is an un-American system. It is a sys- tem that was practiced by Sir Robert Walpole 150 years ago and carried by him to the high- est point of perfection. It was the system by which the French monarchy sucked the life- blood of the people of France. There is noth- ing American about it. There is nothit American or republican in a thing which is a favoritism and personal influence. What is American is fair play and an open field. I do not mean to say that the system that we have substituted is perfect. I have no doubt it has many imperfections—most things have. Butit is infinitely better, in my opinion, than the sys- tem which it has replaced. We hear in private on every side complaints from gentlemen who belong to the party in power of the way in which their time is taken up and of the quar- rels with which their districts are filled on ac- count of the distribution of offices. Patronage never benefited any man or any party. As I id in the last Congress, your side of the House had the patronage in the last election and there is no evidence that it helped you very much. We had it in the election befor There is no evidence that it helped us then. We have had it since the last election. How much bas it helped us since that time? [Laugh- ter.]| We have been distributing the patronage of office with a free hand. How much good has it done us? WHERE THE HUMBUG COMES IX. “Talk about humbug and fraud! I will tell you, Mr. Chairman, where the humbug and fraud tome in. They come in in the party conven- tions which meet and resolve one thing, mean- ing another. Gentlemen go there and never lift their voices against those fair-seeming reso- Tutions; they do not strike them down in the party conventions or protest against them then there ike honest men. They take them tothe people of the United States to build upon and to ask votes upon, because they know that down at the bottom the masses of the people, without going into any great detail as to how it is done. approve civil service re- form and disiike these revolutions in office. ‘They know that the people dislike to have the Offices le the spoil of party victory. ‘The people are not greedy for changes in office, and the clamor in your ears is that of the few and not of the many. So we go out of our party conventions and we make promises, all of us do, upon both sides, on the stump, and we compare each other's party records, as has been done here today and say to each other, -Youare not a good reformer.’ Gen- tlemen do all that for effect in public, and then go around in private and say that civil service reform is a humbug anda sham. (Laughter.} I think, Mr. Chairman, that the bumbug and the sham lie back in the party conventions which pass these resolutions unless they mean them and intend to stand by them. I accepted my party platform in good faith. Iaccepted that pledge ahout the civil service law an f did others. 1 donot think it is asham or a fraud for a party to undertake to uphold that which it has solemnly pledged itself to vphold. [Ap- Plause. BOTH CLEVELAND AND HARRISON. “Mr. Chairman, the President of the United States in his message asked increased appro- priations for the purpose of carrying out the civil service law. The gentleman who has stood twice at the head of the democratic ticket as their candidate for the presidency said inaspeech in Boston not three months ago that in his judgment the civil service law was all that stood between the civil service of the government and political degradation. ‘Those are the opinions of the two leaders of the two great parties. ‘The platforms of those parties are before you. The fair and honest thing to do is not to stand here and bicker as to who has lived nearest to tke law. but to try and make thatlaw better if possible, to try and put these offices on some better footing, upou something more American than a system of back-stairs influence and political intrigue. One other point. The argument is made ever and over again with reference to what is done with the offices which are not under the law but which are filled by patronage, that had anything to do with civil servic form. It has nothing in the world to do w: it, As to the offices that are filled by politic: patronage, whether their occupants are turned out and men of a different political faith take their places in one year or in three years makes Bo difference It is going to be done on a change of parties. We all know it is going to bedone. Youdidit. We have done it. You cannot help it uor can we. for we are bound hand and foot by a vicious system. The only Way is to take offices and by law put them out of the reach of patronage. When you talk about the people who are exeluded from office by the civil service law I answer that one in three of the list of eligibles reaches appoint- ment. Now compare that with the old method. “Before the railway mail service went under the civil service law I had sixty applicants from my district for clerkships. Neither I nor any other Congressman could have got over five of those places. That is one in twelve. The number of people who get office does not depend on the method by which they are selected, It depends on the proportion between the num- ber of places andthe number of applicants. With the law you reduce somewhat the number of applicants. With patronage you multiply them. Under the law you cause less of the waiting than maketh the heart sick. You are fairer at least to the people who come here seeking offices, aud you have a system which, whatever may be its defects, is, in my judg- ment, more manly, more honest, more respect- able and more American than hanging about aud begging for offices as a personal favor frora those who for the moment are supposed to hold them in their gift.” [Applause.} MONTGOMERY COUNTY, MD. Serious Accident to a Washington Man— Real Estate Sale, Ete. Correspondence of Tar EVENING Star. Kocxvinie, April 22 This evening about 5 o'clock a serious ac- cident occurred at the Woodlawn Hotel at the west end of town whereby Mr. Jas. Hatcher, & Washington house painter, was injured. While engaged at work on a swinging scaffold the support gave way and he was precipitated to the ground, 30 feet below, breaking several ribs. Searcely had he struck the ground when a large piece of timber followed him and was buried in the ground within four inches of his head. Mr. Hatcher is an Englishman by birth and has a wife and one child in Washington, Samuel Cator, aged twenty-six years, son of the late Samuel Cator, for many years post- master at Poolesville, this county, died at that lace this evening after « brief illness. He ves many relatives im the county and the District. Mrs. Rebecea Morrison has sold her farm, situated on the Rockville and Georgetown turnpike, and contasning 2023¢ acres of land, illson Offutt for £15,000, This farm place and a to Mrs. is about four miles south of th: short distance from Garrett Purk.

OW YESTERDAY'S GAME WAS LOST AND WHY— CONTESTS IN OTHER CITIES—-INDIVIDUAL PLAY- ING OF TRE HOME TEAM—NOTES ABOUT GAMES AND PLAYERS, Atbousand people were very much disap- pointed yesterday at not seeing the Washing- ton club win a game from the Hartfords. They went to Standpipe Park for the express pur- pose of seeing the Senators wipe the Yankees off the face of the earth, but only saw the vis- itors win by the score of 12 to 8, The cause of the defeat of the home club—itis always in order to give causes—was the inability of that aggregation to hit the balls pitched by Mr. Fagan, while the two men whom Manager Sul- livan put into the box, Maloney and Mace, were not equai to the task. Maloney was suffering from a bad arm and pitened three innings, Mace taking his place when he had sent four men to bases in the third and forced in one run. Mace did better for awhile, striking out four men in two innings, but then he weakened and in the sixth the visitors began to pound him, and after two men were out and one more had been presented with a life by Umpire Cor- and made the score stand eight to four. An error by Hill anda base on balls, helped by a two-base hit by Lynch, furnished two more runs in the seventh, and then Washington began to find out the ‘combination of Fagan's curves and to indulge in a little batting them- selves. Hill hit safely and was forced out at second on Bird’s smash to short, which was un- fortunately well handled. O'Brien then hit out for a base and Riddle took his base on balls, filling the circuit. Then Mace waited for four bad balls and a run was forced in, to the de- light of the crowd. Bader saw his opportunity and he seized it, making a hit away out into left center for three bases. This brought in four runs for the inning, but Bader could not score, for Jordan stru made ten to eight in favor of the visitors and the flagging interest of the spectators began to revive. But all was changed iu the last half of the eighth, when the visitors made two more runs by another error by Hill, a two-base hit by Murray and a single. ‘This practi the ninth. ‘The fielding was very clean on both sides, Washington made seven hits and three errors, two by Hill. and Hartford made eleven hits | and two errors. O'Brien played a good game at second, making a fine double ‘pl Whistler in the third. Jordan muffed one fly ball, his first error of the season, but other- wise his work was magnifice throws from the field being phenomenal, He was credited with three assists, GAMES ELSEWHERE. ‘The other games in the association resulted thus: At Baltimore—Baltimore thre two won and one lost. and Washington, Jersey City and New Haven tied for fifth place, one won and two lost.

Whistler is lead sure on badly thrown bails, He is playing first in wonderful shape. With- out doubt he is the best first baseman Wash- ington ever had. Lynch isa strong man for Hartford's third base. He made three nits yesterday, one of which was over the fence, but owing to new aground rule which places a certain limit on | home-run hits, he made but one base on it.

The silver caucus committee of the House met yesterday afternoon and devoted an hour in endeavoring to reach an agreement on the silver question. A proposition on which the committee united was the amendment to the bill providing for the purchase of 2,000,000 ounces of silver & month under any circum- stances. An understanding was reached, on the question of allowing the Secretary of the Treasury an option in the redemption of bullion certificates, the silver men agreeing to the provision giving him the discretion of redeeming them in lawful money or coin. The silver men were successful in securing the assent of the conservative members of the com- mittee to some of their propositions, and on the whole were very well satistied. NOMINATIONS CONFIRMED.
