The Argus and Pasylo, the organ Of the
Vermont Democracy has the following on
..civil service reformsrs":
"Will the Republican ofIiseholders be
allowed to hold on to their places, under
cover Of the spurious civil service reform
talk? The one great issue IN the late cam
paign was administrative reform, and
there can be no administrative reform il
those who have made that reform necss.
sary are left to administer the affairs Of
the country. The supporters OF Clevs-
lsnd claimed that the public service was
permssted with jobbery and corruption
To allow those guilty Of that corruption
aad fraud 10 remain in Office. would be to
csnfess that the Democrats and Indspsnd-
ents we're all liars. II W are going to
remove oil the danger Of forgery, disbon-
ss.y, false pretcntions, robbery and job.
bsry, then the new administration must
turn the rassals out We have no doubt
that the incoming administration will act
on The conviction that the Civil Service
can only be reformed by removing the
men from Office who are responsible for
standardization that the country has
suffered from"
II friend Atkins desires to remove al
danger Of forgery, dishonesty, etc, there
are great many individuals in his own
party who had better not be "let in"

THE RESULT.

The official report Of Colorado shows o
plurality for Blaine of $3.50, instead OF
the 1850 plurality previously teirgraphed.
This leaves only one county in Nevada to
be heard from in the Northern States, aud,
accepting the tel-grsphed plurality from
that State. makes the total vote o, the
North as follows. Fer Blame and Logan,
3, 588, 226; for Cleveland aud Hendricks,
including the Batter votes in Iowa and
Nsbrasks, 1856, 4lG; for Butler. exclusive
OF the fusion vote in Isws aud Nebraska,
l64, 67s; Tor st. John, 1926, plurality
for Blaine IN the Northern States, 432, $40.
This allows To Cleveland the whole Butler
vote in Iowa. where 30.Sl7 Grsenback
votes were east two years ago. and the
whole Butler vote in Nebraska, where
1891 Autobiography" votes we're cast
two years ago. II il be assumed that the
Butler vote included for Cleveland 10
these States was a. large rs last year,
AZ, sos must be added to Blains's plurality
in the Northern States over Cleveland
alone, making that plurality 4s0,6lS.
From the South, all the States have
been officially reported except Texas.
Allowing loo, 900 for that state. Clevsland's
plurality at the South would be 425, 1854.
But in this statement tho full fusion vote
Missouri is given to Blaine. and in that
state 80, 407 Greenbsck votes were cast two
years ago. Assuming that the same vote
we're cast for Butler, and dejuciiAg this
from Blainss vote. As the Greenback votes
in Iowa and Nsbrasks we're deducted from
Clevsland's vote, the plurality for Cleve-
land vsuld DO 459.37l
On this mode OF reckoning and No
better mode OF separating the Greenback
vote in the three fusion states can be
found the plurality for Blaine on the
whole popular vote would he 2l,274. But
the csmplete returns from Nevada and
Texas may yet change tue reinlt. N T.
