Z CIVIL SERVICE.


Attorney General Akermsn, in regard
to t'e constitutional points involved in
the action of Congress toward civil SER
vics reform, holds that the Constitution
hes ows the appointing power upon the
President ard heads of departments, and
thst Congress cannot restrict that power
by providing that they shall only be made
from persons who have passed competi-
tire examinations. II the Attorney
General is right, the recent law of Con-
gress and all subsequent proceedings
under it are mere nu'lities, and all the
commissioners can 90 is TO report back 10
CoPeress and stop drawing their pay.
BAT, admitting that appointments rest
in TIE s'discretion" of the President
and heads of departments, it does not
follow that general qualifications for Of
fee may not be prescribed. The aim of
civil service reform is to prevent appoint.
men!s and removals upon merely partisan
grounds and Mr.. Aksrman evades that
point in his opinion. If Congress has
the right to placs restrictions upon the
removal of officers by the Executive,
may it not Insist that he shall not ap-
point incompetent personsG When we
establish the point that no Federal officer
shall be appointed who is not first ascer-
tanned to be competent a system OF COM
petitive examinations will be enforced,
and with it restriction against removal
except for cause, which is the substantial
end of civil service reform.
