Va , sajs : "Judgo John J. Jickson funded down a de cision today which liolda that transfer can not without trial tie madV'widor ' the civil service law because It lsequivalent to re moval. "Judge Jackson Insists that the appoint ment of a man to a federal , position under the civil service law gives htm a right In equity to the i > ! nce which ho Is not forced to surrender , save for CBUEQ. "Judge Jackson remarkti in hla document that the leaving ot discretionary powers In the hands of the hceu'a .wt departments makes the civil service a dbad letter. Ho remarks that there Is no 'doubt the civil service low Is entirely constitutional. His second finding U that congress has never delegated to the president and the commission legls'atlvo power. His third point declares that the Internal revenue service has been placed upon the merit code and ho also holds that any at tempt to change the position and rank of officers in civil service departments la a violation of the law. Ills final holding Is that a court of equity has a right to sit In such a case and has the Jurisdiction to restrain the appointing power from removing the officers from their positions It such removals are shown to be In violation of the civil service act. Ho there fore ordered that the men who had been shifted from a good salaried place to a smaller salaried place should bo reinstated. The government authorities hero declare the ruling of Judge Jackson will cause great contusion , a.a Its findings arc far from what had been expected. He practically has held that the fact that a man gets a civil service place under the government gives him u right In equity to the salary and emoluments ot the office , which Is above the caprice ot the head of the department. According 'o Judge Jackson It Is Illegal to shift a man In offlco unless the salary and emoluments shall bo the same. The Change of assign ment , ho says , Is equivalent , In fact , to a dis missal , which cannot happen save under chRTRps and a fair trial. This case here , which resulted In this opinion , was brought to reinstate a United Stales storekeeper or guugcr In the revenue service. When the changes In West Vlr- Jglnla were agreed upon for October , a daj storekeeper at the Hannls distillery of this place was transferred to a position of ad ditional storekeeper. The storekeeper , who for three months had been on duty as addi tional storekeeper , was laid off , and a rein stated storekeeper was assigned as da ) sto-e- keeper. The withdrawn ganger was also layed off and a reinstated ganger assigned to duty. By Injunctions the collector and all others were enjoined from Inte-ferlng with the ofH- cors who had been on dutj. The cases were argued bcfire Judge Jackson on October 18. KIlIii ) IN I'Ultl.Mlim VM'12 OK 1JLTY. Olllcer Shut Willie SliiulimliiK : a Sup posed HnrKlar. ATLANTA , Ga. , Nov. S. Patrolman J.
