The Existing Civil-Service System.

When President Garfield was shot the
universal opinion was that the spoils
| system furnished the motive which
prompted the assassin Guiteau. The
assassin has been tried and convicted,
and in a short time will undoubtedly
forfeit his life as a penalty for the crime.
But the spols system, demoralizing,
pernicious and blighting, thrives as lux
uriantlv as it did when Grliteau leveled
his pistol at the Nations Executive, and
the strife for spoils is as heated and I'M
seemly as it then was. Congress assem-
bled but a few weeks after the conspic-
| uous victim of the system was consigned
to his tomb amid the lamentations of the
country. The tragedy, its cause and the
actors were known to each member.
Were there any possibility that the
recollection of the terrible event would
so soon fade from the minds of the
Senators and Representatives, they have
had constant reminders every day since
the session opened in the proceedings
which have taken place in a courtroom
but short distance from the Capitol
where they assemble. Still, from the
general apathy which is manifested, it
would seem that members of Congress
think the shooting of a President of too
small moment to give them concern for
the reform of a system which has raised
up an army of spoilsmen, unloosed
political freebooters without number
upon the country, made Senators and
Representatives chiefs of factions who
engage in predatory raids upon the
public Treasury, and, as a finishing
stroke, has presented an assassin as one
of it's natural products
There are, undoubtedly, difficulties in
the way of effecting reform of the
Civil Service by legislation, but if Con-
gress should be governed by rVle not
to undertake any work to which there
are obstacles, it would abdicate some of
its most important functions and ac-
knowledge itself to be an almost super
fuous branch of the Government. The
fact that there are difficulties ought to
be an incentive to the members of Con-
gross to address themselves the more
speedily and more earnestly to the
question. There is no doubt that Con-
gress could do a great deal to place the
Civil Service upon footing at once
more permanent and more honorable:
and if it could not bind the President
by law in the matter of appointments, it
could establish rules SO salutary that he
would not feel at liberty to disregard
them, or if he did would be condemned
by public opinion.

IN the House of Representatives, FEB.
9th, Mr.. Reed, from the Committee on Rules.
reported a resolution tor a select COMMITTEES
of nine to consider all questions relating TO
woman's rights. Adopted-ll5 to S.; nearly
party vote. Mr.. Page moved to amend the
Post office appropriation bill by striking
from the clause apprOpiiating 100000 for
necessary and special facilities on trunk
lines the words on trunk lines SO
as to leave it in the discretion of the
Postmaster General to secure special FACILITIES
on any mail lines. Mr.. Bland objected to the
appropriation, characteriZing it as a corrup
ton fund, contending that the money now
given to Vanderbilt and jay Gould should be
used in the extending OF the star route service.

down the mail service small star routes,
but increased the pay to a railroad company
$4,000 for the transfer OF one car from one

Except during the tendency of politi-

Except during the tendency of politi-
cal campaigns, the office-holder under
the present spoils system may have his
whole time for the performance of his
duties to the Government. But during
political campaigns, which on the whole
occupy fully one-fourth of the time of
the politicians, and obtain a considerable
share of popular attention for about the
same period, the oflice-holder must act
upon the knowledge that he is the serv-
ant of the party in power as well of the
public, and attest his allegiance to the
former in every way that may be re-
quired of him. And this is but the be-
ginning of his humiliation Dependent
upon ''boss" for his place, he must
carry himself as a personal hirellng,
and bend all his energies to the further
ance of the schemes of his political
owner If his superiors in office have
axes to grind--if they fancy they merit
promotion-he must turn the crank for
them, or risk their displeasure and his
own removal. In short, office-holding,
under the spoils system, is dependent
largely upon intrigue and combination,
and plot and counter-plot play a con-
spicuous part. The result is that the
Government is neither as well nor as
economically served as it ought to be.
Members of Congress are perfectly
cognizant of all the evils of the spoils
system. Some of them pretend to have
a great desire for a change, but with
remal kably few honorable exceptions,
the conduct of Senators and Repre-
sentatives show that their professions
are hypocritical, and that at heart they
desire no reform or change in the Civil
Service system.-Det10H Free Press.

That MOdel'' Administration,

The model Administration of Hayes,
concerning which so much has been
said, does not seem to stand investigation
as well as ''mOder' should. Reference
has already been made in the Free Press
to the maladministration disclosed in
the Star-route frauds and other swindles
of similar nature; but recent develop
ments surpass even those gigantic rob-
berries in the amount of odium thrown
upon the Hayes Administration.
The chief glory of that Administration
next to the total-or nearly total-ab-
stinence at the White House, was the
Cabinet; and it is this glory which is
now being shorn of its glorousness. 1t
looks as though in addition to the ex-
posture of the tricky Sherman as fraud,
the fame of the ''bright particular STAR
in the Cabinet would be taken away as
secured on false pretenses. 1t is not
quite easy to be reconciled all at once to
the theory that the amiable, piano-play-
ing doctrinaire of the Interior Depart
ment was jobber, or the tool of job
bers; but his course in relation to the
Northern Pacific land grants can hardly
be explained upon any other theory
even upon that of guileless innocence or
absolute ignorance.
1t is not to be wondered at perhaps,
that an Administration which was
founded on fraud of the most colossal
description should have been, in so many
essential particulars, fraudulent. But
1t is to be wondered at, with all these
facts coming to light, that men still
speak of Hayes Administration as a
model of purity. Exchange
