In thlg letter 1 propose to give my vlowa
on the much mooted question of civil ser
vice reform , It will bu understood , of
course , that ( hey are the views of myself
only nnd do not represent the Ur.ii on
the views of any other person.
For three or four years or so the
two great parlies of the country , repub
lican and democratic , have stood In the
presence of a few self-declared righteous
.men who arrogate to themselves all the
purity and uprlghteousness there is in
political life now known by the classic
title of mugwumps , as moral cowards ,
Iloth parlies utterly detest civil service
ns it ia now known and practiced , and
ntthc.lr conventions liny Mallow reso
lutions cnuoi sing it with wry laces and
rebellious stomachs , as much so as if
they were taking doses of ipecac , and
thus a few impracticablcs dictate thu
course of the two parties in this respect ;
nud they , tlu two parties , oiler their en
dorsement of the civil service us a bribe
for mugwump votes. Not since this gov
ernment was organized has there boon

bird lieaveu , as a master piece of politi

from our governmental system , and all
lesser mugwumps unite in Hounding its
praises , This is to be expected , lor tlu-y
naturally want to make a good showing
for tin ir weakly ollspring. And yet , if
they are asked to point to one single
aspect of the public service where an im
provement has been made , and they nro
utterly at sea to lind it. They will say ,
"oh , yes the improvement has been won

und has boon obliged to recall moro unlit
appointments in the last seven months
than wore over known under the four
preceding administrations. The expla
nation of tliis fact is just tliis , he has dis
regarded the advice of senators , and
. . members ; ho said in his letter to KaU > u ,
accepting the hitter's resignation as chief
of the civil service commission , "they
impudently stand between the ollicos and
the people " I hold it to be utterly im
possible for the president .and huads of
departments to make appointments intel
ligently and niiderstandingly without
consulting senators and members from
the states anil districts in which the ap
plicants live , . They stand in closer rola-
. lions to nndiaro-more dirciltly the ropre-
fleutativeH of the people than any other' '
persons ; and they can bu held responsi
ble , too , while no responsibility attaches
.ito the privatn oituiiu. The prjsi 1 snt
does not knowor at least is not expected
to know , many pr vate citi/.dna ; but ho
does know the senator nnil member nnd
'that the f people have sent them there to
represent the people. Who ought to be
better posted as to thu lltn iss an I ipi ill-
ficatioiisof applicants lor ollices than
they ? No system is perfect , but every
one lias its evils. Members and senators
may recommend bad aiipoiiititiei.t-s , as
they sometimes have done , but I have
yet to learn that a senator or member has
recommended n convicted lelon for a
federal position , and yet Mr. Cleveland
'lias been misled so much bv depending
on private individuals , tlmt ho has in less
1 than eight months' tinio cotnmissionc.u
about a dox'ou convicted or indicted ras
cals , thus very clearly proving that in
stead of turning the rascals outhe is only
turning the rascals in and turning honest
men out.
' I am utterly and unchangeably op
posed lo niiy policy that tends toward tliu
establishment of n lift ! teniiru of ollico.

AXOTIIRIt OIUKCTIOS1
to the present olvil horvico la\v is that It
directly infringes the powers and rights
ol the iirrshleiltconferri-d upon him by the
constitution , in niukinir nppolnlmenus ;
and I fully believe , If tliu question ever
reaches the supreme court , the law will
be declared in conflict with the constitu
tion.
In making appointments , the first ques
tions to be settled are , is tlie applicant
honest , is ho capable ; those hi1 ! nurse ! tied
favorably , I hold it to bo the rijlit of the
party in power to select its own political
friends and supporters for olliro. The
administration is held responsible for the
jiolioh'3 of the government , and it should
lie allowed to .select friendly uguntH to
carry out these policies. DUMIIUSS men
in the management of their own alia rs
nre not ivpt to selet-t as agents for carry
ing on their business , those who are hos
tile to it. They prefer to trust it to
friendly hands. Why should not the
government bu permitted to pursue the
same common souse course * Again , the
arty in power that does not put its own
riends and supporters in ollice ; and the
man that does not Btaud by bis own
friends will ere long go to tlioull as
he ought to.

It was amusing to road the resolution
adopted by the Iato democratic conven
tion at Lincoln , which endorsed the slow
ness of the president in making removals
and appointments. The record of the
mental anathemas uttered by those same
democrats , and of the number of times
they have consigned Cleveland to shuol ,
would be appallmir to behold. And yet
they humbly tibuso themselves before
him and cry out , "it is all right , Grover ,
como round POOH as you can , " ivnd some
of them adding iu u sort of undertone.
j'but don't let the day of judgment heave
in sight before you move. " They remind
me of U party of miners where one of
the number did thu coo'ong ' for the
party. The rule was , that this ono
\vliocomplnined should take the place
ot the cook. The cook became tirrd of
his occupation and thought he would set
some of them to finding fault with the
cooking. One morning he mived up the
biscuit , composed of ono-half Hour and
one half Rait , and , baking them , m > t them
before the hungry miners. One of them ,
seizin" a biscnit/planti'd his molars in it
and set his jaws to wagging , when ho
suddenly exclaimed , "Well , if those ain't
the golilarnd'fit , saltcst hisuuit , 1 ever
ate , " just then he thought of tlio consequence
quence of finding fault and quickly
added , "but never mind , I like 'urn. L
likn'iim any how : " Thn democrats ate
salt biscuit with a gusto in that connec
tion. The object of that resolution is too
palpable > ! t is tally administered to
Cleveland with the hope that it will in
duce him to put an end to his procrastina
tion so far as Nebraska is concerned , and
hurry up the appointments. And now
they are looking for the axe to fall a lit
tle moro rapidly ,

Whether the civil service l.iw includes
Iho inspectors in the iiosto lice depart
ment or not , I do not know , but if that
department desires to ferret out frauds
upon the 'government , it hud bettor t ike
hold of tlmt branch of the public ser
vice. It will find that some inspectors , I
do not mean all , have fabric-it voucher.- ,
for services never rendered ; they have
made up reports of fictitious trips from
their places of residence , their ollices ,
their headquarters to points two , three ,
live hundred or a thousand miles from
their headquarters , their place of resi
dence , whan , during the whole time cov
ered by those reports , they did not leave
their places of residence. These reports
have been sworn to and sent to the post-
office department and are now on file ,
and on these reports the inspectors mak
ing them 'have ' drawn their extra per
diem and mileage for thosu imaginary
trips The proof of the truth of th"si >
statements is in the postolllco d tn.irt-
ment , and there are living
witnesses to the truth of them.
If the department will compare the
reports of tri | > s alleged to havu been
made by some inspectors , with the xv.ir-
rants on which the same inspectors w < ire
paid the per diem anl : expenses of said
trips , the authorities will lind that said
inspectors were thus paid at the places
of their residences as shown by their re-
C'-intson tliii buck of the warrants on
wh'oh they were paid , and yet the re
ports , OM lilo nnil sworn to , locate the
mime Identical inspector ? on the same

and the payments nut the same man in
