The New Ohio Idea.

The country has just been made ac
quainted with new Ohio idea. TIL,
old, familiar one related to the cur,
rency and was long since exploded.
This fresh one has to do with civil-ser.
vice reform and is fully as worthy of re-
spect as the other.
Mr.. Payne unfolded this civil-service
reform Ohio idea (patented, all rights
reserved) at q supper which he gave
the other night to the men who elevated
him to the Senatorship. In the course
of some remarks to his guests he said:
"Now, can this service (the civil-serv-
ice) be reformed, and by what processP
l answer yes. And the process is first
by electing Democratic President
secondly by spitiless and radical
overhauling and purging of the present
service. Then let care be taken
that none but such as bear the Jeffer-
sonian stamp of honesty and capacity
be allowed to enter, and those only
from the Democratic party, until its
full ratable share enter to guard and
protect the public interest" Verify this
is dazzling Ohio idea. All that the
country needs to secure civil-service re-
form is Democratic President and a
fair divide! If Mr. Payne does not re-
ceive his party's nomination for the
Presidency, after that, it certainly will
not be because of his attitude on civil
service reform. The rank and file of
the Democracy have been anxiously
looking about for statesman with just
these sentiments, one who would insist
upon giving the boys 'full ratable
share of official pap. Of course, in de-
termining what was q full ratable shar
the fact would have to be kept in nina
that Democracy has not had any share
at all since 1860. And that fact would
suggest that, if the two parties are to
stand on the same footing, Democrats
must hold all the offices for as long a
period as the Democracy has been kept
out of power-a matter of quarter Of
a century. Mr.. Payne does not indeed
allude to this fact. But we feel sure
that ii he eveI ets to be President he
will interpret ia full ratable share" in q
| generous spirit.
1t is to be added that the guests ap
plauded Mr.. Payne to the echo, ant
that he had the magnanimity to refrair
from formally reading George H. Pen
dleton out of the party. IN Y Tribune
