the law which allows such terrible errors

We want laws passed and everything
Zone to prevent the possibility Of a re-
aswal of the spOils system under a
Democratic administration. For this
reason we favor Senator PendletOn's
Civil Service Reform bill. The people
are intent on reform. They want no
repetition of star route, nor a lcOntinua-
aOn of bossism and the "spoils" plunder
rule. Genuine, thorough reform; re-

"He must, indeed, be bitter enemy OF

England of 1882, in which he entered

Reform Bill is likely to pass the Senate,
Judging from the indications. The dis

The recent elections seem to have
expedited" the prospect Of reform in
che civil service. Men who hove profit
ID most, personally and politically, by
she abuses, now clamor the lOudest. 1t
IS the old "stOp thief" cry.
Senator John Sherman, as Secretary
Of the Treasury under Hayes, rewarded
With Offices the perjurers, the forgers,
ahe thieves, the cOnspiratOrs and the
seOundrels generally who took hand
fn the Hayes Presidential steal. Now
ne is accused of being willing to bother
President Arthur, the same man he
turned out as Collector Of the port of
New York.
Others of the old corrupt leaders are
now on the anxious bench, scarcely
knowing which way to shoot. They
would like to get credit for being refOr-
mers. Some of them are prepared with
hobbies already by which to try again
for popular favor. Some of them are
expert political acrObats.
The great point, after all, in the way
Of reform, is to reduce taxation. This
should be the leading object of members
Of Congress. 1t should take precedence
Of all other matters, for it is what the
people demand. Mr.. PendletOn's meas
are deserves all praise; but the people
IN the late elections meant to rebukI
and abolish the spoils system. The Re
publican party was condemned ant
aEerthrown on this account, and the les
son should be needed. The warning
should be remembered by all, and we d.
aOt want the Democrats to forget It.
