| with the true element of free government
Many offices should be made elective,
giving to the people, in their capacity of
electors, the power to choose. In other
cases, certain class of appointments
should be given to State officials, and in
still other cases boards of appointment
should be devised by law. Let the ap-
pointing power be ditfusive, not concen-
trated.
Nothing has been more marked in the
whole history of our national legislation
than the folly of congress in con-
stantly charging the appointing power Ct
the executive. The appointment of in
cumbents to every new Office created, or the
appointment of members of any new COM
mission established with view to more or
less permanancy, is always given to the
president, as in the case of the Utah COM
mission under the anti polygamy bill.
There is not single session of congress
where the appointing power of the presi-
dent is not enlarged. The short-sightedness
of members of congress in this regard is
most amazing.
True reform demands the taking away,
to a very large extent, of this enormous ap-
pointing power of the president. and con-
fining his responsibilities to more ap-
proprate executive duties.
In this way the executive will be made
more efficient IN the discharge of his
proper duties; he will cease to have the
life worried out of him by importunate
Office seekers; the Boss machine in
politics will be smashed, and the
President relieved from the
power of Furnishing so many enemies, and
rewarding SO many friends; and he will
be made more useful and respectable in
Office, safer depository of executive pow
er, and will be likely to make more re-
putable figure in history.
No civil service reform will be of adj
equate value that does not take
from the hands of the one man
who stands for the time being as the head
of the nation, to a large extent, the i'm
mense patronage of which he is made the
dispenser by his almost unlimited ap-
pointing power.
To this point the energies of civil service
reformers should be directed, and until due
reform in this direction is accomplished.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

Can any good thing come out Of
Shakopee, via Washington? It seems pos
sible, if all reports are true in regard to a
civil service reform bill prepared by Ma
jor Strait. He is credited with having dis
tanced Pendleton and all other tlnkers of
bills, by putting into his bill common sense
and practical points. 1t is to be hoped his
work is not overrated. A Washington
special has this to say:
Ma Or Strait, of Minnesota, has a substitute
which seems to be quite practical. 1t is intend
ed to meet many defects in the present system
not contemplated in the other bills introduced
and pending, which seem to have but one OBJ
ject, and tina. is to entirely dsconnect the civil
service from politics. MIR. Straits bill proposes
in addition to this, to prevent many evils that
have become notorious here in the conduct of
the civil service. 1t is intended to break up the
petty rings that exist in the various departments
and to protect employees in the matter of decip-
line, removals and promotion from injustice and
tyranny. 1t alse provides for competitive ex-
aminations, but removes the matter of appoint
ments entirely from Washington influences, from
which, under the present system, spring many
abuses. 1t extends to appointments in the civil
service, the principal of appointments Of the
military and naval academies, the power of
making nominations, after competitive exami-
nations for appointments, being vested in the
governors OF the states and territories.
The suggestion to disconnect the civil
service from politics Is a good one and
vital to the usefulness of any revised
plan. The smashing Of the
rings-within rings, ''the petty rings" of
the departments at Washington is alto
gether good point. Faithful employees
should be protested from the insolent die
tation of selfish superiors. Appointments
made on merit, on competitive examina-
tians, instead of rewards for particular
service, will strengthen and elevate the SER
vice, by bringing to it competency, ability
and fidelity to trusts reposed.
The bill, also, contains another import
ant and most valuable provision, namely,
to diminish the power to appoint or in
fuence appointments, which has been al
ways concentrated at Washington.
The most dangerous element in our gov
ernmental system, is the immense appoint
ing power given to the president. This

autocrat, in fact, and is wholly at variance

YANKToN's BONDS.
In the press dispatches from Washing
ton it was stated that representative cit
izens Of Dakota had been before the house
committee on territories and explained
that at the late election Yankton had
purged itself Of the attempted reputation
of its Indebtedness, and that settlement
satisfactory to all concerned had been
practically reached by the issuance of new
bonds to tho holders of the old bonds de-
string them, and the payment of cash to
those who did not. It was said that Sam
uel ". Packard, of Chicago, attorney for the
bondholders, confirmed the fact of the
settlement. The proposition to admit Da-
kota as state would therefore be argued
at once before the subcommittee of the
say that several misstatements were made
in the dispatch summarized above. Mr..
Packard writes parties here interested a
different version of the matter. When the
question of the admission of the territory
of Dakota as state came up at the last
session, he represented, through Senator
Hale, that Yankton county had repudiated
its Indebtedness, and that the territory was,
therefore, unworthy to be ad-
mitted. This motion prevailed.

DEPARTURE FROM THE PROGRAMME.
As Rev. Smith ceased speaking, Rev
Riddell, who had been much affected by
his earnest words and brotherly greeting
said, that though not in the programme,
he felt as if he must say a
few words in the way of thanks
and appreciation Of the sentim ents ad-
vanced. He came to st. Paul, he said, as .
man and a citizen, and whatever he should
find would advance the interests of the city
came in a higher capaci
| y, that of messenger Of
the church, and in this capacity, too,
he should earnestly and faithfully endeavor
to do his whole duty. He felt more CRATE
! full than he could express for his kindly
greetings, and the words of sympathy and
! encourageme Mt he had received. The oman
was to be pi tied who would allow the good
! that was in him to be cramped
and negativsd by UNCONVENTIONAL restric-
| tons. The time IS fast approaching when
Christians of all sects will come into close
relationship, not because they will have
any less pronounced opinions upon certain
points of belief, but because they will be
ready to recognize the right
of others to have equally
] pronounced convictions, and at the same
time be as honestly working for the same
great end, the salvation of the human race.
He closed by begging pardon for breaking
in upon the programme. He had not ex
| pected to say q word, but his
heart would notlet him be quiet. The anthem
of 'Palm Branches" was then rendered by
the choir, tho new pastor pronounced the
benediction, and the impressive and most
interesting exercises exercises long to be
remembered by those in attendance-were
ended.

greater than human language. Man can
not voice his most brilliant thoughts; the
most skillful artist, like Angelo, fails ut
terly to impart TO the cold marble, his
bright imaginings, and finally throws
down his chisel in despair. To this plane
God lowered himself for the benefit of
man. He became as q man, his greatness
being limited by the agencies into which
he had voluntarily entered, and it is this
that is found one of the profoundest mys-
teries of the Christian faith. Following
humiliation comes tho rebound, exaltation,
and We are told that tho Son of God,
emerging from his many humiliations for
man, thought it not to be q usurpation to
appear as the equal Of the Father. Jesus is
presented as the sovereign who spoke and
it was done. Picture it if you can, the
being who holds the destinies of tho world
in his hands, becoming a servant, washes
| his disciples feet, and does other mental
acts. He was not only . servant, but an
| obeaient Iservant, obedient unto death
Why was he thus brought to obedience and
death? It is written that he suffered and
| was crucified for the sins of the world
that Jesus came into the world to be the
end of the law of righteousness. This was
exsmplified when he was traduced and spit
upon, and the climax was reached when he
cried out; "Father, forgive them, they
know not what they do!''

ascending with the angels, but the Christ
suffering, the Christ crucified. And as the

There was o medium sized audience
at the Opera House last night, to wit.
ness the tirst presentation in this city of
Harry Meredith's new play entitled
"Ranch TO-" The play is certainly a
great improvement on the border dra-
mas that have hitherto been produced,
and while many of the scenes and Incl.
dents are of the sensational order, the
whole play is Q realistic picture of life
in the western wilds. Mr.. Meredith's
conception of the dual character is ex-
ceIlent, aud he displays his versatile
powers in the rapid change from the
refined and gentlemanly AL, to the
rough miner TOm. The company ere
excellent, and where all sustained their
parts 80 well, it seems invidious to par
ticularizs. The scenic effects are good
and grandly imposing and the court
scene in the last act kept the audience
in roar of laughter from the opening
of the session, until the verdict was
rendered. Mr.. Smith as Judge Prose,
could not be eycelled, and 1t is hard to
tell whether the character was created
for him or whether he was especially
born to fill the character. The play
was evidently written to please, and
their is not the slightest doubt but that
it will accomplish its mission. 1t will
be presented again this evening, and
is hoped that it will be greeted with
an overtlowing house.
