the unsatsfactorness of the whole civil SER
vice. If we had civil service system there
would be no opportunity for such attempts
or such scandals. It would not be possible
for such fellow as Anderson to get an
office by doing or pretending to do political
service; he could only get it by the regular
channel of competitive examination, and
when he entered for that he would need
what he is now out of, a good character as
well as cleverness. Such fellows as Ander-
son could not apply and would not, aud
would have no inducement to commit fraud
for one party or another in the expectation
If being rewarded by an office. And if
there had been a civil service the guileless
Stanley Matthews wouldn't have got into
trouble by his infantile attempt to play the
smart ward politician. Matthews would
have had nothing to do with Anderson
having nothing to do with appointments and
places, and so Matthews might never have
revealed himself TO the country. Matthews
might have been saved that is, if he had
also kept ont of the Senate, and had been
endowed with the requisite ability to keep
his mouth closed on financial and all other
questions. Pretty much all this game of
dirty politics. which is game of prom
ising and getting office, would disappear if
offices were not the patronage of politicians.
But as it now is, this subject absorbs pretty
much the whole attention of Washington I;
to curry favor with congressman in order to
get office and in order to keep it reduces
the official population of Washington to a
condition of cringng servility, and the pos
session of this patronage corrupts the Con
gressmen. 1t is vicious circle where the
Matthewses and the Andersons meet"
