The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1884-12-31

GIANT, through special mes
sage, was asking Republic an
congress to make small apprO-
priation for the enforcement of
tho civil service rules, to
which the Republican party was
solemnly pledged. Unfortunately there
was then no statesman III con-
gress who could see that new
cause, with an element of potency in
the near future, was begin
nlng in the hearts OF the
people. In the eyes OF the Republican
leaders, the carly friends of the
cause were enthusiasts" and
"doctrinaires," at whom parti-
san journals especia ly delighted
to sheer. No member in either house
cared to even call for the ayes and nays
on the appropriation. Amid ieers and
laughter, civil service reform, in the
opinion OF the leaders of its
enemies, was consigned to the
tomb Of the CapuletS. About that time
the republican party entered upon a
SLOW decline. Jubbery and patronage,
mon9ering more and more, louri,hed.
AT that time, too, began deliberate
method (and soon afierward was carried
forward through many affiliated organi-
zations) that very broad appeal to the
virtue and the wisdom Of the country
which two years ago convinced
q reluctant congress that a reform SEN
tlment must be needed. A
civil service reform bill was
prepared. Those courageous and
patriotic Democrats, Pendleton in
the senate and Willis in the house, TO
whom the country owes much,
brought in that bill, to
which Republicans contributed by
lar more i'll speech, earnestness and
votes TO make the law, but their return
TO the ground principles on this
subject was rather lato and
their support OF them in the last cam
yasS was rather feeble and oquiyOcal,
facts which, in my opiEion, ensured
their defeat. They thus gave the
democrats chance to capture
that cause, and now, that the
reform sentiment having grown

tured the Empire state, and under

SNAPPED lis administration to
reform methods, speaks in
very. firm, decisive and
unmi3takable language through the
letter OF the president elect. whom that
sentiment has thus early in lis
course brought to the head of
the nation. In these facts we
may see a part of the lesson
to be uniearned. 1t seems
to me plain where the new president
stands, and which road he re-
CARDS as the true road to
honor and duty. But will his
party unlearn lessons of it's own
toby, or gain wisdom from the folly of
lis opponents? viii it resist his firm
leadership; under the new civil-service
law Republican administration
with magnanimity unprecedented in
our history has given official places to
from 500 to 1000 of its political
opponents. Will n Democratic
al ministratiOn have the patriot
ism and courage needed TO
follow that example? These are
virtually questions which that letter
suggests, and which impart to it pro-
found significance.

GREAT care should be exercised in the
