THROWING OFF THE, MASK.

Great credit was given to this Admlnistra-
ton at first, because it retained in office many
officials who could not really be spared. CivIl
Service reformers who had suffered themselves
to be taken in by the Presidents professions
pointed to the retention of these officials as a
most important step in the right direction.
One of the men so retained was Assjstant-Sec-
retary Coon, of the Treasury Department,
whose great experience and whose thorough
knowledge of the business of that office, it was
seen, could not be spared without embarrass-
ment. The Civil Service refOrmers looked
upon this event with immense satisfaction, foI
they said it was a step toward the prevailing
practice in Great Britain, where the Under"
Secretaries of the different departments re-
tanned their position through all changes OF al
minstration. The theory was good, ana
the effect produced for the moment was just
what the President wanted. The Civil Ser
vice reformers were encouraged to continue
their confidence in his professions. AT the
same time the help of few most valuable OH
GERS was secured for the Administration, until
the new heads of department could obtain
some mastery of the business.
But now the DISCUSSES begin to fall OIL. Ohe
by one the men who were supposed to have
been retained permanently because of their
SURPRISING efficiency and knowledge are per-
mitted quietly to retire. In n number OF IN
stances, within the past two months, such
changes have been effected, and known par
tsans, without experience or knowledge OF the
public service, have quietly been installed in
place of the we'll trained and thoroughly COM
petent men who were at first retained i'll office.
1t seems that just such change is &c be made
in the Treasury Department, and that Mr..
Coon is to go. not because he is an offensive
partisan" bat because he is not an offensive
partisan He declines to be an uncompromis
ing Democrat, and therefore he mast depart.
His retention will not reward any Democratic
worker, nor will il secure for the President the
aid of a former Republican, aud therefore he
must go. Perhaps there was feeling, also,
that blr. Coon would not have been disposed to
assist i'll managing the Treasury Department
for the benefit of the Democratic party, and i'll
keeping such secrets rs partisan management
of that department miEht wish to have kept.
At all events, the change is one which sincere
believers in Civil Service reform may well con-
slider seriously.

John GoOde Solicitor General, has lately
bulged into public view good DEAL He has
figured as strenuous TO relieve Attorney
General Garland of any responsibility for the
notorious telephone suit which has contributed
SO generously to the discredit of Mr.. Cleveland's

any responsibility Quite independent of the

the responsibility he can well stagger under?

A YOUNG MANS FIRST vote.

To the Edttor OF The TrtbHne.
SIR Wishing to become an enthusiastic Re
publican this fall aud in the future would like to ask
two fair questions: l. Why should every yOung man
vote tho Republican ticket IL How should every
young man who wishes to become true citizen to his
country his friends aud political enemies that
the Republican ticket in this Is tho ticket to vote
for with a good conscience LSR
Dunkirk Oct s. 1855.
l. Because the Republican party has been on
the right side of every public question during
the last thirty years, whereas the Democratic
party has invariably been on the wrong side.
The Republican party has stood for progress
i've ideas and sound policies for the aboi-
ton of slavery; for the indissolubll-
ity of the Union; for the resumption OF specie
paymentsi for honest currency and stable
National banking system for the protection
of American industries and the promotion of
every legitimate National interest for civil
rights, purity of the ballot, educated citizen
hip and Civil Service reform. 1t deserves the
support Of young men because 1t is progress

The Columbia College School of Mines ranks
high among institutions of its kind, and the
trustees of the college are wise in improving it
by adding another course. This should they
do: but not leave other things und0ne any
longer than it can possibly be helped. For in
stance, if the college is to develop into a great
university, the philosophical departments and
that of political science, excellent as they are
now, must be strengthened along the lines the
professors so ardently desire. Doubtless this
will all come in time, and in view of the fact
that the colleges land rents in the upper part
of the city are to be greatly increased next May,
it seems reasonable to hope that it will come
soon.
