The Author Of the spoils System.

The spoils system, like many other abuses
which have assailed the purity of the fed
eral government and filed the country
with scandals, was inaugurated by Alexan-
der Hamilton. Jefferson found it in full
operation in the treasury department when
he entered the cabinet of Washington, and
it reached its full development in all the
departments under John Adams. 1t con-
sisted of multiplication of offices, and the
creation of useless patronage, dispensed to
personal favorites and political partisans.
This is the spoils system truly defined. of
which Dir. Hamilton was the author, He
believed it necessary to increase the weight
and influence of the executive in congress
and in the country. 1t is not worth
while to describe the length to which he
carried it when relieved from the restraint
of Washington by the accession of Adams.
It is enough to say that it never again
reached such proportions until the times
of Grant and Grantism Hayes and Fraud.
Mr. Jefferson reversed the federalist prin-
ciple upon which Hamilton and Adams
proceeded and the first democratic admin
| istration was the first and greatest reform
| administration. 1t abolished two thirds OF
| the civil list. It cut off every needless of
fee It reduced expenditure and dimin-
| ished taxes. Jefferson made the govern
ment simple and honest by making it econ
omical His plan was to coufine its bust
ness to the few functions specifically named
/ in the constitution, and to compel the faith
full execution of these by number of ser
wants sufficient for the purpose, and ne
more He did not turn men out of Office
| because they were Federalists, but ht
| filled vacancies with democrats, or repub
/ licans, as they were then called, becaus
they were true to the constitution, ant
were heartily in earnest, as lie was in Civ
ing the experiment of local self govern
ment fair trial This was and is tru
civil service reform. We have tried tn
federalist plan long while. under Gran
and Hayes and Garfield, and nobody seems
pleased with the result. Why not make
change, and try the Jefferson plan. as on
fathers did IN 1900? 1t worked satisfac
torily then. and as long as it was honestl,
followed We commend it to the reform
ers of the day. Meanwhile let them stol
railing at Gen. jackson and the democrats
and read e page or two of their own par
tvs history.

The statement that the Chinese govern
ment has ordered the large number of
young Cinnamon who were receiving in
struction in this country, to European
countries to complete their education, is
denied by such authority as Yung Wing.
He is the resident guardian of these young
celestials in this country, and his denial is
certainly conclusive. They are ordered to
return to the Flowery Kingdom. Their
return is demanded, not because these
youths are vented at home, but because
they are learning too much.
1t is because they have grown to look
and act and feel SO like our boys, because
| they have become so thoroughly American
| lied that the Chinese Government breaks
up the educational mission at Hartford and
orders home the boys under its care. At
least that, we are told, is one of the chief
reasons for the abandonment of the enter
prise. And from the point of view of the
| Chinese authorities the action is easily I'M
/ derstandable. It is, indeed, surprising, SO
welded are they to their social traditions,
| that they ever hazarded the experiment of
| trusting picked number Of their youth.
presumably BOYS of the best intellectual
| promise amid the influences of totally
different and an antagonistic civilization
that they dared put them during the form
alive period Of their lives in a republic
whose ideas are so hostile to Chinese i'm
perialsm as are those OF the United
States We do not wonder that the am
| bassador from China who came here on a
| tour of investigation was struck with alarm
and horror when he saw that his young
countrymen had abandoned their national
dress, some of them even going so far as
to cut off the queue, the indispensable
badge of Chinaman, and that they had
readily adapted themselves to the ways
and habits and possibly acquired the modes
of thought and imbibed the free notions OF
the people anaeng whom they were.
| 1t required no Dennis Kearney to utter
the proclamation THE Chinese must 60, .
but that going was decided by the home
government when it learned that the young
Chinese were imbibing too freely of the
peculiar ideas and customs of our country.
1t is barely possible that the information
already impaired to them will result in
some changes in the Chinese government

A few republican organs assert that the
only way to reform our government is tc
make it less democratic and more British
in its character. They would make the
president responsible to the people only
through his ministers and they would
abridge the criticism of the press
There is, however; better plan, and
one that viii not require any such foreign
importations. 1t is simply to change the
party in power from the present corrupt
