THE PendletOn Civil Service bill, 1t is
said, Mr.. KassOn will report back as it
came from the Senate and not attempt
TO antagOnize it with his scheme for
long and fixed tenure of Office. A lead
ing friend Of the measure says there are
not more than twenty men in the House
who believe in its power to reform, but
that there would not be found twenty
men who would, when the time came to
make a record, stand in the way Of the
passage of the bill, or even vote to sub
stitute for it any of the other bills on
the same subject, none of which is the
result of 80 much care and examination
as the PendletOn bill.

The New York Legislature organized
Tuesday by the election Of Hon. A. c.
Chaplin, of Brooklyn, Speaker Of the
House. He isrecOgnized as thorough
going refOTmer, and takes office as no
Speaker has for several years, without
pledges to bosses or corporations. He
is not an old man, and attained promi-
nence last season. The Democrats COM
ing to the front at present at Albany are
Of the class known as Tilden Democrats.
Governor Cleveland, who was inaugu-
rated on Monday. and made brief ad-
dress, sent his message to the Legisls-
ture Tuesday. 1t is a reform document
in its length and breadth, Judging from
the brief abstract we have seen.

THE Enquirer has been republishing
ISLANDERS against Hon. John McSweeney,
from its correspondent Allen o. Myers.
The principal charge is that Hon. IL. B.
Payne, of Cleveland, when he ran for
Congress, paid McSweeney $500 for max
ing two speeches. Two Lyears ago Mr..
Payne himself settled the charge in his
usual emphatic way, as will be seen by
the following:
CLEVELAND, Jan. 13 1881.
DEAR MCSWEENEY: Your note inclOs-
ing slip from the Enquirer came to
hand yesterday. thank you for calling
my attention to the base and malicious
charge against you. 1t gave me an Op-
pOrtunity for reprObating it, as | have
done in card to that paper. 1t, in
manner, affects my honor also, for the
inference would be that such precise in
formation as to the number and price of
speeches must have been obtained from
me. cannot understand the motive for
such mendacity. What could the most
INSCRIPTIONS libeler hope to gain for
himself or his party by this sort Of at
tackP If he sought to injure you, he
will certainly fail in his object. The
effect must be to benefit rather than
harm you. One fact is sure: that our
friendship has been too intimate and
too long established on firm basis to
be successfully assailed by attacks of
this character. AS it has been and is, so
1t must and will continue to the end.
= Ever truly your
friend, H.B. PAYNE
Mr.. McSweeney said two years ago
and reiterated to Cleveland Herald re-
Dortar the other day:
"I never received or asked for parti-
Gle OF compensation fOI all S'daye done
In politics | asked none of the offices,
wanted none, and have scores of times
refused good round offers of money for
political speeches, and was often told by
those wishing to pay that others re-
ceived--nay, demanded-pay; even those
who were living on the emOluments of
Office given them by Democratic votes"
We take pleasure in saying, by way of
cumulative evidence, that during the
last thirty years Mr.. McSweeney has Oc-
casiOnalIy favored US in Stark county
with one Of his grand, eloquent and
telling efforts, and he never asked for
pay, nor did he ever receive pay. We
believe In honest justice; not in foul
slander. 1t is to be regretted that the
columns of the Enquirer are thus given
to personal abuse of distinguished Dem
Ocrats. ..

WAGES AND TARIFF.

PrOtectiOnists profess to have a deep
interest in the welfare OF the working
men, and always claim that the prinei-
pakebject of our protective tariff Is to
ensure higher wages for American work
men. The Massachusetts Bureau of
Statistics Of Labor has been for several
years collecting statistics in regard to
labor, and the profits of the manufae-
turers.
The people In Massac chusetts are large
ly engaged in manufacturing, and, as
the industries in which majority of
the people of Massachusetts are employed
are protected by the tariff, If protection
raises wa.es, wages in these protected
trades should be exceptionally high.
We quote from the 18th Annual Report,
page 331: "In the mills Of large LO-
we'll corporation the average pay was
found to be S5.13 to $5.48 per week"
These are the wages paid ten hours
work in athe sitting smoke of a Lowell
cotton mill. On page 427 of the same
report we find that the average weekly
wages in Lancashire (England) spin
ming and weaving mill in 1881 were
f6.42 per week of sixty hours. The ave-
rage weekly wages in cotton mill at
Blackburn, England, were $500 per
week. Here we see that the wages at
Lowell, Mass, under protection, are ac-
tuRlly lower than In England, under
free trade.
1t will be interesting to examine the
report in regard to the manufacturers
profits, and see If their profits are as
small as the wages of their employees.
The report shows that from investiga-
tions made last June, the profits on the
manufacture of print cloths in Fall
River were 22.O6 per cent. An operator
at Fall River said: "Fhe Granite is the
best mill in the city. -Four shares worth
81 600 each at par, sold recently for 3d.
200 cash. They declared 40 per cent.
dividends in year, have two mills now
running, and the foundations now laid
for the third" This is how the protect
ed manufacturers of Massachusetts di-
vide the proceeds of labor with work
ingmen, $5.13 to $5.48 for the emplOye
and % to 40 per cent. dividends for the
mplOyers.-DetrOit News.

THE Civil Service Reform bill has
been greatly misrepresented by some
through personal hatred of Senator
PendletOn and by others through ignOr-
ance as to the real contents of the bill.
While there are some provisions of the
bill upon which people of all parties
may honestly differ, yet there are other
provisions that will meet with the
hearty appreciation Of all good citizens
Of both parties.- Wayne Co. Democrat.

: France seems to be taking the lead in
applying electricity to agriculture, al
though Germany Is not wholly idle in
adapting the new motive power to the
wants of the farmer. Thus, at an agri-
cultural gathering recently at Luden-
burg, some interesting experiments
were made In the use of electricity in
stead of steam for the threshing of
wheat. Messrs. Petite and Krizik lit up
electrically the space reserved for ma
chimes, and at the same time utilized
the current to drive an ordinary thresh-
ing machine. The cylinder of this ma
chine attained a speed of 1,4OO turns a
minute. 1t will probably be long time
before electricity is generally applied
to blowing land or driving threshing
but there can be no reason
why farm houses and buildings should
not be lit up by electricity, particularly
in the New England states, where wa
ter power for running a dynamo is rum
ming on the majority of hOmesteads.

THE CIVIL SERVICE BILL,

Senator Pendleton's civil service bill,
it is now thought, will pass the House
and become a law. It's provisions are
briefly as follows: The lowest grade Of
Federal employees shall be selected from
the ranks of citizens at large, appOr-
toned to the several States, by eompeti-
tive examination, conducted by a COM
mittee of three persons appointed for
that purpose, regardless Of their politi-
cal affiliations. Their first appointment
shall be for three months, and If they
perform their duties in satisfactory
manner the appointment shall be made
permanent, unless they are removed for
cause. In all grades 'abOVe the lowest
the selection to fill vacancies shall be
from the next lowest grade. The law
does not apply to offices in the diploma
tic service, in the War and Navy and In
S.eriOr Departments, Department Of q is-
tice. hea,is af Departments and<onA tir
assistants, pOstmasters and other Jis,.
cfals requiring confirmation by the Sem
ate, employees of the House and Senate,
IabOrers and other persons employed
temporarily, and ex-soldiers and sailors.
There is no opposition to theiprinciple
ut which the bill aims. The objection
is raised by many that the act as pro-
posed would not bring about the de-
,ired reforms, but would tend to per-
existing abuses. The opposi-
ion In the House win be sufficiently
troHg TO bring out the pros and cons In
he discussion which will be had.
