Short But Inclsive Letter From the

short But Inclsive Letter From the
Editor OF Harper's weekly"
NEW YORK, October 3.--tieorQe William
Curtis, the prominent civil service reformer
and editor Of Harper's Weekly, has written
letter to William Potts, secretary of the
New York Civil Service Reform Association.
saying;
c. have to-day returned from A RIM ,nto
vermont, and l hasten to answer your
astonished and astonishing inquiry. which I
have just received, whether advise Repub.
licans to vote for Judge Folger, by saving
ID the most emphatic manner that do not
ADVISE, have not advised and shall not ad-
wise course so totally repugnant to all my
political convictions and my sense of public
duty. The advice In Harper's Weekly to
which you allude was not mine and was
published hurriedly, with the press wait
ing, In my absence and without nv
knowledge. Judge Folger's ability and
character are not in question, but
his nomination Is. That nomination was
procured by the combined power Of fraud
and patronage, and to support 1t at the polls
would be to acquiesce In fraud and patron
age as legitimate forces In nominating
convention. Every good citizen is bound
TO resist to the utmost such wrong to free
Institutions, and the only effectual way In
which the voters can emancipate themselves
from the corrupt aud debasing rule of
machine is to defeat its candidates. This I
believe will be done decsively by the Re-
publican voters of New York and Pennsyl
vania at the election of this autumn. They
will see their party defeated rather than
fraud and corruption of patronage trium-
phant. Events In both States show that no
graver political peril now confronts the
country than the complete snbjugation of
party by unserupulous cabals, which bribe
with public employment and pay their way
by filching from the public Treasury. This
is an evil which will end In violence unless
It Is conclusiyely rebuked by the people at
the polls"
