At the Young Men's Christian Amclatlon
auditorium the National Council of the Junior
Order cf United American Mechanics Is In

they coming from all portions of the United
{ States , the east particularly being largely
represent . It Is the first time within the
history of the organization that a national
council has been held west of the Mississippi
river. With grateful realization of this fact ,
J , W. Houder of thU city , representing the
local branches , has prepared a program of
pleasure , Including a carriage drive , banquet ,
reception , and Incidentally a "camera party , "

proverbial key to the city's gates. Mr.
Houder responded In u brief but happy
epcech.
Perry Shaner of PlttKburg , In behalf of the
National Council , extended a welcome. He
wished to correct the Impression that the
order was anti-Catholic. Mr. Hhaner con
tended that the organUatlori WUM loyalty to
public schools , a defcrira of tha flag and pro
tection of true Ame-rlcan IntcreiiU. The or
der was not opposed to any one who shared
those Kentlmcnts , no matter what his creed
might be.
The meeting then resolved Itself Into ex
ecutlvc KecHloti , the first order of burlncsK
being purely routine. Including the paxalng
upon credentials , admission of new dele-
Kates and appointment of a committee to
give unto the prc n uch Information with
relation to the deliberations of tha conven
tlon as tha committee cared to divulge.
COUNCILLOR'S ADDRESS.
National Councilor J. G. Rlchtcr delivered
his annual addre-ss , which was In substance :
"We havu assembled today In annual KCH-
elon to review thu work of the past year
and to leglslatu for the future welfare of
our order. May the rama kind Providence ,
which has permitted UH lo meet In this beau
tiful city on thu Ixuikx of the mighty Mis
sourl , which parts our prulrlei , once more
bo with and direct us In our legislation , that
It may rcdown to thu good of our order
everywhere. When one year ago you placed
III my hands , and entrusted to my keeping
thu gavel of command wo little thought
Unit tulay we Mould hu able to report our
order In an good condition ua It IH.
"With employment hard to find , and thou
sands of our murnbcTH only too willing to
Bocuro such work as would enable them lo
earn a livelihood , the Htrlngency ot the
money market , and thu gloom of de
spondency , a * ' It were , hanging Ilku n cloud
over the land , made It appear to UK as If wi
would bo compelled to report a IUIIH of mem
bership rather than a gain. Hut , during the
past few months , the tun of proHperlty liar
again smiled upon UH , and the hum of the
busy manufactories can again bo heard on
every hand , thim Instilling now life among
the people everywhere , and especially among
the mamburH ot our order , HO that today wu
are plcaied to nay that our order can be
found away up In the Old Pine Tree slate of
Maine , where tlm Atlantic washes Us rocky
coast. In the land where our pilgrim futhorx
first commenced an extended line of nettle-
mentx , and whcro the BOH of American lib
erty nnme and Immortalized Lexington , Con
cord and Hunker Hill ; away out to the fruit
ful and fertile fields of the prairie lands uf
the great went ; beyond the lofty mountain
regions , rich In mineral wealth , Into the
vineyard * of California , until It touches the
guidon Hhorcs of the far off distant Pacific ;
and from Manitoba In the north down the
Father of Waters , with Its many tributaries
to th gulf In the south , comprlHlng thlrlj
Btato councils , and HUbordlnato couiicllH In
ton additional Hiatus , where as ye > t no state
councils have brcn organlrud.
After further reviewing the progress of the
order In the various states for the past year ,
the national councilor continued :
"To my mind thu order Is In far better
condition today than It was a year ago , and
I predict for my isucc'ssor a moro xucccssful
term than wu have Imd. With buslncsa re.
Binning on every hand , and an Incrraned In
terest amung our members everywhere , I fesl
confident that our future will be a bright one.
There are few , If any , orders in existence
In our country today that have principles
moro gland , objects more noble , or teachings
more patriotic them our order has , and If our
members will only practice what they preach
our future cannot be questioned. The new
laws adopted at the last session caused tin
considerable correspondence and , In some In-
stoncen , no end of worry. All this will bo a
gain to our successor , as I havu no doubt
that constructions will bo placed upon cer
tain laws which will greatly lessen hu
work. The now ritual has. ns far as I could
learn , given general satisfaction throughout
the order. There
are EQUIP changes neces
sary , however , an I have hnd letters frum
different sections of the country Inquiring
as to the proper procedure during the clos
ing ceremony , csprelally when repeating the
! ' , 0. I would sufisesl that this body make
such alterations so as to have tho. ritual
moro clearly understood by all. "
The address was concluded with several
recommendations for changes In the present
general lawn of the organization.
FINANCE COMMITTEE CRITICIZED.
Several committed reports were received ,
Including the minority report of the national
council legislative committee. The report
concludes as follows :
"Thl * I * probuhly the first time fn the his
tory of tlilu order that a minority report of
a standing committee has been presented , but
wo leave It to the Intelligence of the mem
bers to determine If wo are not justified In
our action , und wo ask thlv national council
to pass upon the principle Involved In this
report and dnlcrmlne :
"Firm Whether or not the rights of each
member of a legally constituted committee
of this body shall bo respected , und whether
certain work outlined by a committee In
regular sesvlon can lie set aside by an officer
or certain members of the committee without
first consulting all the members of said com
mittee ,
' 'Second To determine If the finance com
mittee of the national council shall have ( he
right to order warrants for salary , expenses ,
etc. , of a legally appointed committee of this
body without sanction or authority of said
committee.
"Third To determine by what right the
finance committee of this body has authorized
the payment ot over $1,400 in warrants for
the national IfglrlutUo committee when thcro
has boon no meeting since the organization of
said committee , nor legal authority given by
the members of mid committee to Incur these
expense * .
"Wo think the settlement of thcso questions
Involving the rights at member ! on a com-
mltlco of this national council should b
settled In order to avoid controversy and
preserve to each committee the duty to which
It ha been delegated to perform by the o Ul
cer" of tills body.
"In view of the experience of the pail year
we would recommend that this national coun
cil commit Its U to the tupp-rt cf an Imm'gra.
tlon bill and that all the power and Influ
ence of ( ho order bo concentrated In that
particular direction unlll consummated , Icav-
\ntr \ a. ) ! other " x'urcs t < j wye future Ume. "

WASHINGTON , June 18. The forthcom
ing annual report of the United State * Civil
Service commission will show that the whole
number of person * regularly employed In the
civil service of this country it about 200JOOO.
Of these approximately one-fourth arc In the
claislfled service , subject to competitive ex
aminations under the civil service rules.
Of those In the unclassified service 22,000 are
laborers , G.OOO are appointed by the president
subject to confirmation by the senate , 1,000
are In the legislative branch ot the govern
ment , and 2.CG6 are In the Judicial branch.
The civil service act excludes these claim
from classification.
The total number of positions affccte-l by
the cxtcnilon ot civil service rules from
March 4 , 1833 , to January 3 , 1895 , was 8,181.
Ot these , 6,637 were added to the classified
service by original classification , and 2,617
by transfer of places classified but except.d
from examination to list of places subject
to competitive examination. Since January
S , all employes of the Agricultural depart
ment have bc'n brought Into the classified
service , except the secretary and assistant
secretary of agriculture , private secretary to
each , chief of the Weather bureau and his
private secretary , the chief clerk of depart
ments and his private secretary , and laborers
and char-worn en.
A comparative rtcatcmcnt chows , lhat at
the end of President Arthur's administration
the approximate number of positions classi
fied was lfi,753 ; at the end of President
Cleveland's IIrut term there were 27,330 , and
at the c-nd of President Harrison's admin
istration there were 42,028 places classified.
Executive acts brought 29,873 of the latter
number Into the service , while the 13,055
others , principally In postolllccs , became
classified by reason of growth from small
ilflCCS.
PENSIONS FOR OLD AND INFIRM.
Investigations made at the request of the
commUnlon show that the salaries of gov
ernment clerks In the principal foreign coun
tries are lower than those paid by this gov
ernment , but the pay of higher clllcliils IE
generally more than that here. In all of the
> rlnclpal countries an entrance examination ,
joth mental and physical. Is required before
appointment to the service. The tenure of
office Is permanent , or during good behavior ,
and after thu employe has become Incapacl-
: ated by reason of age , length ofcervlce or
ihyelcal Infirmity , he Is retired with a pen
sion , the amount ot which varies In proportion
tion to the length of service , from one-sixth
to four-fifths of actual salary. In eome
countries It Is optional with the employe to
retire after flftetn years of service. In othci
countries from thirty to thirty-five yeare
of service are requlre-d before retirement.
Females arc not employed at all by some
governments , while by others their employ
ment Is limited to the work of teachers , tele
graph operators and positions In the postal
zervlcc.
The Investigations also showed that thu
hours of labor vary , in the far northern
a well as In the tropical and semi-tropical
countries the hours of labor are short. In
nearly all , Including the United States , the
hours of labor of postal employe ! ) are longer
than those of other governmental employes.
The time allowed for lunch , the amount o , '
annual leave with pay and the amount of
sick leave with pay vary In the different
countries. In Komo the hour for lunch or
rest or annual leave Is fixed according to the
grade of the employe , the higher grade ol
employe being allowed more time than those
of Inferior tank. Many countries arc more
liberal In regard to sick leave than the
United States.
An unusually large number of holiday *
la allowed , cHpocially In the oriental coun
tries. Thc'y are as a rule religious ones ,
Christmas and New Year's being generally
obrcrved In tl c Euro ean countries. In some
national events arc also celebrated.
VIOLATIONS OF THE LAWS.
The report gives an exhaustive review of
the Investigations of violations of the civil
service laws. Among the poKtoffices on
wheRe Investigation the commission IB stll
engaged IK that at Rutland , Vt. Postmaster
Hnnrahan charges that the republican em
ployes ot his office are conspiring against
him. while they In turn charge him with
making political removals. The case han
been under consideration since last Novem
ber.
ber.Tho
The commission also lately called the at
tention of the Postal department to the case
of many Indiana pontofficcs which it regards
as on the whole worse than those of any
other state except possibly Mississippi. In
the complaint the commission elated Its posi
tion as follows : "This commission holds
that whcro a postmaster makes uwecplng
removals of employes and flllB the vacancy
by the appointment of persons of the oppo
slto party , that there In a presumption that
ho Is controlled In the matter by political
considerations , and Is to lie RO judged unless
ho HhowB to the contrary , the burden of
proof resting upon him. Undoubtedly there
are cases where such presumption will be
'overcome by a disclosure of the facts , showIng -
Ing tbat there was a Justifiable cause for
every removal , and that selections for ap
pointment wore made In'strict conformity to
the civil service rules. Hut even In some of
these cases , although the record Is technically
correct , the law nas nevertheless bscn
evaded. Many cases have come to the notice
of the commission where employes of one
political party were freely dismissed for
offenses which perhaps Justified the action ,
but which passed unnoticed when committed
by employes of the opposite party. A public
officer IH not to bo relieved of the charge of
partisanship when ho has 'applied different
standards ot discipline to persons of oppo
site politics. Moreover , when he. finds It
necessary to make sweeping removals of em
ployes opposed to him In political faith , It la
his duty to make the public understand that
ho Is not actuated by political bias by taking
such affirmative action as will prevent the
necessity of making appointments from reg
isters on which all the members are members
of his own political party. "
Nearly everyone needs a good tonic at this

BlSi.OP'8 ORDER ANNULLED
The IJIim'.siul of Two I'rlosts Sot Aslilo
on Appcul.
lit. Rev. Thomas Ilonacum , Roman Cath
ollc blohop of Lincoln , paid a visit to th
mission * of Auburn and Tecumseh In Aprl
last , and on tbo 2Cth ot that month Issuci
an order dispensing with the services o
Fathers Fitzgerald and Murphy , the priest
In charge of the missions respectively. Th
order of dismissal was to take effect July 1
The priests appealed to Mgr. Satolll , claiming
that the action of the bishop was a violation
of canon and dloceean law ; that no charge
had been preferred against them , no trla
had and that the order was a punlshmen
for their part In demanding a trial of the
bishop on charges preferred and his remova
from the diocese.
Fathers Fitzgerald and Murphy were moro
fortunate than some of their associate * In
the fight against the bishop In that tlicl
appeal was sustained. A private telegram
to The Bee state ? that Bishop Uonacum "ha
been compelled to recall his orders of dls
mlstal. " The fathers will continue In
charge of the Auburn and Tecumseh mis
sions.
Friend * of the priests In Omaha , as wcl
a * their congregations , are much elated over
tlio decision.
