General Garfield has been in this city TODAY
with his wife to attend to some personal err
rands. In conversation with a, acquaintance
in reference to his letter OF acceptance he said
that the statements of the letter relating to the
civil service should not be interpreted as in
any sense letting down from his former we'll
known position on that subject He was as
heartily in sympathy with the movement for
an intelligent and permanent reform of the
civil service as ever. AS in his seat in Con
gress he has always done what he could by
word and deed to bring about such a reform,
so as President, if elected, he will seek in
every way possible to make it practical and
permanent. He feels. however, that the most
important step now. is to secure legislation
from Congress fixing the tenure of office in
all branches Of the public service, and he will
without doubt in his first message make
definite recommendations looking to such leg
islation in regard to the share that Congress
men should take in the selection of public of
ficisls. General Garfield feels that they NAV
be properly consulted by the Executive in
making local appointments. such as to post
masterships, in order to get at the local SEN
timent of given community, but that their
opinions are entitled to no more weight than
those OF other leading men.-T Cleueland o.
