NLNORIEY REPRESENTATION

The system Of cumulative voting, or minor
ity representation, was tried in the late elec-
ton in Illinois. writer in the Boston
Globe says 'it has been found to work reason
ably well. 1t did not do all that it was prom
ised it would but that was the tault Of the
7oter not the system. For the first time the
Republicans OF Southern and the Democrats
of Northern Illinois have been represented
in the State Legislature under the old system.
Cook county, with 5000 Republican, majority
but with 10 900 Democratic votes, would
have elected eighteen Republicans and three
Democrats. Now the delegation stands
thirteen to eight There was not "a much
cumulating Of votes As was expected. The
Republican voters were the best drilled, and
generally gave each candidate q yote and a
half, thougA a man was very apt 10 run
ahead in hi own neishborlIood
In those districts made up of Il large and a
small county, the candidate nominated from
the large one frequently runs ahead of his
associate, who has smaller constituency to
draw on. 1t was predicted that there would
be so much of this emulation that the mi
nority would be enabled to elect two or three
Representatives, but it happened only in one
instance, where the Liberals, in Peoria
county, nominated two candidates. one from
the city and one from the country. They car
ried the county, but the city candidate had so
many votes piled on him, that the two Re-
publicans, running more evenly, came in as
the second and third men. In another dis
trict, an independent candidate drew off all
the votes in his neck of woods and ttprehy

CIVIL SER VICE REFORM.

There Is not dissenting voice, so ior
as our observation is able to extend.
among the republican press in relation tc
the question of civil service reform, or tc
the course of the President ia enforcing
it. All agree in sustaining the reform
and commenting the President. The Al
bany Journal repeats in substance the
ideas already expressed in our columns
when it SAYS 1.-THE adversaries OF the
President have preached civil service re-
torrn~-the President practices Il; lhey
used it as a mere campaign eatch-Wofo
with elements which made its profession
ridiculous-the President has meant it IN
sober earnest. They borrowed the idea
from him at the outset and they can look
n see him enforce it. He was foremost
in proposing it. In his first message he
clearly outlined it. He has done every
thing Tor it that has been done at all, and
he manifestlv intends to 90 ON with the
work
His remarks to the Pennsylvania dele
CATION last week show how thoroughly IN
earnest he is. The political campaign is
over. The need of specious professions
for political effect has passed. And yet
the first declaration the President makes
is not a contemptuous treatment ofproies-
sions, but all assertion OF the purpose of
civil service reform more emphatic than
ever. The Pennsylvania delegation
sought the appointment OF postmaster
for Philadelphia in the old way. The civ
il service rules were in conflict with their
wishes. These principles Of reform had
been adopted by the President, endorsed
by the republican party and approved by
the people. The President, therefore, re-
sponded that he could not Conscientious
~ depart from them and that he must name
the candidate to whom they pointed.
This is the most conspicuous illustration
vet presented of the practical application
of the principles of civil service reform.
The country will welcome it rs proof
that the President is sincerely devoted to
the work to when he mas pledSeu hiiii-
self. The substance of civil service re-
form lies in the elevation Of the public
service above the degradation to which
the unseemly scramble for place is cacu-
lated to sink it. The precise methods are
questions of detail which must be tested
by experience. In actual practice ohjec-
tons may be developed to this plan OF
that plan, and it may require modification.
But the idea of civil service reform must
commend itself to every sober Judgment
President Grant has done more for it than
any other man, and his efforts in this di-
rection will alone entitle him TO grateful
recognition. His present action serves
very much to clear the political atmos-
phere."
