The Civil Service.
The organization of the civil service of the coun-
try has for number of years attracted more and
more OF public attention. So general has become
the opinion that the methods of admission to it. and
the conditions Of remaining in 1t, are unsound that
both the great political parties have agreed in the
most explicit declarations, the necessity of re-
form, and in the most emphatic demands for it.
have fully considered the declarations and demands
to be the expressions of the sincere convictions of
the Intelligent masses of the people upon the sub
ject, and that they should be recognized and fol
lowed by earnest ana prompt action on the part of
the Legislative and executive departments of the Gov
eminent. In pursuance Of the purpose indicated
before my accession to Office, endeavored to have
my own views distinctly understood and upon my
inauguration my accord with the public opinion
was stated in terms believed to be plain and unam-
biguous. My experience in the Executive duties
has strongly confirmed the belief in the great adj
vantage that the country would find in observing
strictly the plan of the constitution which imposes
upon the Executive the sole duty and responsibility
OF the selection OF those Federal officers who by

Republican papers in New York insist
that the approaching election in that state
is not to determine the success or failure oi
the administration OF President Hayes, nor
to decide whether the Republican party
supports or disaprroves the so-called new
Southern policy, but is TO decide whether
honest men shall be elected to Cfiice, or
whether Tammany Hall and Canal Ring
shall enter upon an indefinite period Of I'M
disputed power. And substantially the
same question is at issue here. The nation
al administration, and the Southern policy,
are matters in nOwise connected with local
politics. The only question for the voters
OF Leavenworih county 10 consider is, shall
our local offices he filled with competent
and honest men, or shall corruption and
misrule be permitted to hold undisputed
