people, by deToting to the purpose public
land, and If necessary, BY appropriations from
the treasury of the United States. What
ever the government can fairly do to promote
Tree education, ought to be done. Wherever
general education is found, peace, virtue and
social order prevail, and civil and religious
liberty are secured.
In my former snru0l messages, | have
asked the attention OF congress.
10 the urgent nee ssiiy of tho
reformation ,of the evil service
system of the government. My views con.
corning the danger Of patronage or appoint.
ment for personal considerations have been
strengthened by my observations and expert
ence in the executive office and l believe
thess dangers have threatened the stability
OF the government. Abuses so fragrant IL
the tenure of office cannot be permanently
tolerated. They tend to become more alarm
ing with TIE enlargem Mt Of the SdministrS,
ton. II the country increses in population
the number Of officers and plscemen en-.
ployed increases Reasons are imperative
fer the adoption of liked rules for the educa.
ton OF appointments, promotions and re-.
mOvaIs, and an established Uniform method,
having exclusively in view, in every Instance,
the attainment Of the best qualifications for
positions. Such amethod alone is consistent
with the equal rights Of all citizens, and mos,
economical md efficient administration of
pr Bile business.
He then refers 10 the system of competi
tlve examinations, and says the result OF
these practical trials have confirmed
his opinion in favor Of tho system.
snd no recommends IN appropriation t
$4,000 per muum to meet the expenses of A
commission TO be appointed by tho pres
dent in accordance with the terms of sec.iu
1853, revised statutes, whose duty il shall be
to devise just, uniform and efficient system
of competitive examination, and to supervise
tho application of the same throughout the
entire civil service Of the government,
