MR.. CLEvELAND'S MEANING

The Philadelphia Press. in com.
mon with several other Republican
lnnrnals, does not understand what
Mr.. Cleveland means in Lis letter
on Civil Service Reform. It seems
to us they are dull of comprel,en-
sion. The Press asks: "What does
MIR. C!eveland's letter on the Civil
Service mean, when it says that
many officials have forfeited all Just
claim to retention because they
have been offensive partisans?
What constitutes the nse Of place
for party purposes? What is the
nature Of tho service that is con-
denned? How far is this excuse to
be carried as a pretext for remov-
ing Federal officers and putting
Democrats in their places?"
Well. we are not in Mr.. Cleve-
lands confidence, but, taking him
to mean what he says. we should
think that where an office-holder

ment Of party caucuses. or has mis-
used his official influence for parti-
san ends in other ways. rs in aban.
