THE sPoILs IDEA.

Nothing recently published has pre-
scented the spoils question in clearer light
than this extract from the Memphis Ara
lonche: Is the Arkansas Democrat aware
that it advocates dangerous doctrine when,
referring to Fowlkes, Heating and Mathes,
it saws that the Postoffice would have been
but small recognition of the splendid SER
vice rendered their party by the editors
In this case both would have made excel
lent officers, but, as general principle, the
Democrats idea of rewarding party service
with office is fatally wrong, because there
is no preventing that principle, once firmly
rooted, from leading to recognition OF
splendid party services without regard to
fitness for office" That is precisely the
meat and pith of the whole civil service
reform question. The people are entitled
to fitness in office before party men are en-
tied to reward for partisan service, Civil
service reform means, and this only, that
the business of the Government shall be
carried on in its various departments by men
specially fitted for the work to he done,
and that this fitness shall be ascertained
by prior examination, and shall be aug
mented by retention in position during
faithful service, regardless of the claims
of party. men for place. That is to say,
Government employees are to serve the
Government Of the people, and not party.
When an appointment is due to partisan
ship, held at its whim, and the conduct Of
the appointee is subject to the political
boss, the Government cannot he faithfully
and rightly served.

would have signed their political death

New York Herald.
The strength OF the Republicans in Ohio this
year comes from the very bad impression made
by the Democratic Legislature the past year
which was exceptionally greedy, extrayagant
partisan and open to bad influences. so far as
the Governors Office is concerned Judge Foraker
represents much higher type Of politics than
prevails in Democratic circles in Ohio.-}Ne
York Times
The Republicans OF Ohio have done well in
again choosing Judge Fomkera as their standard
bearer. He made plucky fight against Hoadly
in 1883, when the circumstances were less fay
orable for success than they are this year. His
course since that canvass has strengthened him
in public estimation: and the enthusiasm which
his nomination elected yesterday foreshadows
his triumph at the polls.-LNew York Tribune

New York police have arrested half-dozen
persons who were about TO jump off the Brook

A NEW ORDER.
Secret Society for the Publication of
Politics.

An important political movement has
been started in this city, which, if carried
out in the spirit which now appears TO
animate the promoters, cannot fail 10 WELD
a powerful influence at the next election.
Il has been decided by number of gentle
men to revive the old political organization
known as the Order of United Califor-
mans. The plan is for the Central
Assembly to issue charters for branch
assemblies in each of the twenty legislative
districts, the number of members i'll each
branch TO be limited to $50. Each branch
will elect a member of the Executive
Committee, and that committee will direct
the actions of the order subject to indorse-
ment in the branches. The objects of the
order are simple, They want an hon
est administration of the municipal
and State funds, and to that end they
propose to do all in their power:
To see that no unfit person is sent as a
delegate to any municipal convention.
To see that all delegates who are com
trolled by any boss or ring shall be beatcn
at the primary, if possible.
To see that the Judges do not NEEDLE in
politics, and oppose the election OF any
Judge who in the past has been known to
consider political service in mitigation OF
punishment or in the determination of a
civil case.
To see that no person who has been con
victed of any criminal act or heinous crime
shall be appointed to any political place,
and TO see that no office is given to any
person who habitually associates with Grim
inals, pimps or Migrants.
The work of organization has only been
in progress a few days, vet already 1000
applications have been made for member
ship, which is limited to 5000 The plan
of the order Is simple and rational. EIec-
tons in this city are generally rather close,
and $50 votes in each district will generally
defeat any candidate. Having exhausted
all means to secure good nominations, the
Executive Committee will canvass all tick
cts in the field, and picking ont the bad
names, all the members will vote and work
against them. The proceedings will all be
be held in secret session, aud no person
will be admitted to membership with less
scrutiny of character than is deemed
requisite by high class secret societies. If
the principles of The order are carried out
as the character of the gentlemen at its
head would guarantee the reign of the
small criminal and the boss in politics is
about at an end.-[San Francisco Post June

upon an Irish question rather than a.for-

Conservative triumph only by ashen
threads, are very likely to prove the thorns
in the Tory crown. The Queen insists
that the pending peace negotiations con-
corning the Afghan question shall be
completed upon the plane of their original
projection, and hence the policy of the
Government in that matter may be said to
be settled. Not SO, however, with either

And sleep often a mere travesty of repose,

ingly impaired by this most prevalent OF
maladies, and headaches, biliouoness, con-

of numerous and formidable bodily disor-

persistent use of Hostetter's Stomach Bit

CERTAIN economies are announced as
being introduced upon the leading rail
roads of the State. 1t is altogether prob
able that the class which credits railroad
corporations with no sincerity, will find in
the reduction of working forces designs
upon a free people. Yet it will be real
lied by ali thoughtful men that all econ
omies tending to lessen cost of operation
without narrowing efficiency are as
fully in the interest of shippers and
producers as of carriers. The truth is,
that the Pacific coast roads have always
been the very last to reduce working
forces or lessen the earnings of wage win
nerS. They have paid higher wages than
the Eastern roads and have employed, pro-
portionallv to the business done and mile
age operated, more men and more steadily.
When railroads find that business
season is: inadequate to maintenance OF
large working forces, it is simply the act
Of wisdom to cut the garment according to
the cloth at command. The working
classes Of this coast know better than any
others how firmly the Pacific railroad sys-
ten has stood the friend Of wage winners.
THE New York Tribune is authority for
the statement that the Saturday half-hoEi-
day movement Is making rapid progress
in that city. The action Of the Chamber
of Commerce gave great vitality to the
effort to establish the new system. If New
York adopts it generally it viii exert an
influence in every trade center in the
country. 1t is not too early to begin to
agitate the subject here 1t is, as the New
York press urges, a practical and philan-
thropic movement, and hence should en-
gage the sympathy of all who have the
good of their fellows at heart In New
York, besides the Chamber of Commerce,
the Produce Exchange, Maritime Associa-
ton, Mercantile Exchange, Board Of
Trade, Real Estate Exchange, Stock Ex-
change and Cotton Exchange have fallen
into line with the new movement, and a
number of chief retail establishments OF
the city have adopted the system. As the
Tribune we'll says, there is no reason why
the new custom should lie confined to New
York
