aovernor oleveland,s Letter.

Any objection we may have to Governor
Cleveland or the Democratic party does not
prevent us FROM saying that his letter to the
National Civil Service Reform League, pub
lished this morning, is an admirable docu-
ment. No man has enunciated the substan-
tial principles of civil service reform more
clearly or more vigorously, and no man has
ever displayed an equal courage in asserting
an intention to enforce them, for no man
has been placed in circumstances where the
expression of his purpose required it. 1t is
one thing for candidate to talk fair before
election; but quite another thing for an
elected candidate to reaffirm his pledges
with equal or greater emphasis. And
especially is this the case In respect of
cause about which there is divided SEN
timent among his supporters, and which he
is under strong temptation to slight and ig-
more.
We are aware that this letter is not actual
performances; but it comes as near it as
pledges ever can come. 1t is the explicit dec
laration of one who has nothing to gain now
by protesting opinions which he does not
mean to carry out in practice. 1t is not equiv
ocal or eyasive in any respect, but explicit and
direct in every part. 1t is by all odds, in con-
sideration of the circumstances, the most i'm
portant and significant individual utlerance
on this topic that has ever been expressed.
1t resolves all doubts which the friends and
advocates of this reform have entertained re-
garding the intentions of the President-eect.
1t is bold defiance of the adherents of the
spoils system throughout the land, Motif
cation to those now in Office who have not
used their official position for the service of
q party that their personal party relations

will not be considered cause for their remoy-
al if they have been faithful in their public
duties, notification and warning to those
who may be appointed to Office by him that
party service will not be the condition of
their continuance in Office, notification to
all who seek Office that character and fitness
will be more considered than party service
in making appointments.
We trnst that Mr.. Cleveland will have
trnness and courage to stand fast in the
principles he has asserted. We no more re-
greet that a Democratic President-elect has
taken SO noble aud patriotic stand in sup
port OF this reform than we regret that the
Democratic party has ceased to question the
validity of the constitutional amendments. 1t
is part of the victory of righteousness and
justice for which the Republican party has
been battling In so far as he is faithful in
this regard he will have the encouragement
of that large part of the Republican party
which regards civil service reform as one of
the most important and necessary require
ments Of our political condition.
If President Cleveland will be true to the
sentiments of this letter in his administra-
ton it will become historic paper, marking
an epoch in our annals, and giving him
just title to grateful remembrance in time
to come. If he is true to the sentiment Of
this letter, the nation has seen its last cleo
tions characterized by an organized particl-
patton of the office-holders of the country in
behalf OF the party that happens to be in
power. If he is true to the sentiments
of this letter our politics will have made,
before his administration closes, a long
advance toward higher and purer condi-
ton.
But if he fails OF falters this letter will en-
phasize his disgrace and condemnation. We
will not assume that he has not considered
and recognized the full import of his com
initial. If he has not done so he has grossly
blundefed; but If be has deliberately an
nounced this resolution while approaching
all the opposition aud all the trial he will en-
counter, the act deserves to rank with the
bold, the brilliantly audacious, exploits of
politics that give statemen prestige and
fame.
