evening at the Colum bia Law Building. Mr.
called the me citing to order, and ON his motion
Mr.. M. L. Higgins, Of the Treasury Depart
mem, was called to the chair, and W. J. Cow.
ing, Esq, was appoInted Secretary Mr.
Meyers set forth the objects OF the meeting. He
believed il necessary for the efficiency or the
civil service that increased compensation be
paid TO the non-commissioned officers (clerks)
upon whom devolves 90 mucn Of Government
responsibility. He compared the salaries paid
TO custom.house officers in New York city
with those paid to the ofiScers Of the Treasury
more in New York than here. He desired
greater permanency OF the civil service
He claimed that permanency in the
tenure OF ONCE is Of greater importance
70 the clerks than increased compensation
He advocated the giving Of a temporary COM
mission TO new clerks, revokable within six
months, and IL they are found worthy, a per-
nanent commission for, say five years This
commission is only TO be forfeited by miscon
duct. A tribunal is TO be appointed BY each
loved TO make his defence. Give permanenee
10 the service, and you will secure the entlre
power and Intellectual activity OF the clerks;
you Will call forth their zeal and manhood
and make them respected by the entire com.
munIty. On his motion, q committee of fifteen
whose appointment was delayed for the pres.
ent, was agreed upon, to take into consideration
matters relating to increased compensation and
reforms In the civil service.
After remarks by Colonel Scott, MIR. p. H
Reinhard, and others, the meeting adjourned.
