No question receives 30 much attention
as civil service reform, and at the same
time is so slow Of adoption. Here is still
another plan on the subject. The Philadcl.
phia Times says; "Ex GovKRSoR CURTIN
In the house yesterday offered a bill for the
reform Of the civil service, which, while not
so radical as the measures advocated by
PESpLEroS and DAWES, is In all probability
nearer Ia accord with the average popular
sentiment and moro practical. The tele.
graphic report Of the new bill Is somewhat
imperfect, but It's two most important iea.
lures seem to be tho equal division Of the
appointments among the congressional dis
tricts and the naming Of candidates by the
congressman and senators who shall SUBJ
init TO an examination by board Of three
persons, one Of whom shall be selected by
the head Of the bureau to which the up.
pointment Is TO be made. The successful
competitors 10 be appointed first for six
months, and then FOR three years, and not
to be removable except for cause. The
good features Of this measure consist In the
equal distribution Of the appointments and
the fixed tenure"
