ceived with exactly that. degree of
enthusiastic acquicsccnce calculated
upon. The trouble in the way is that
the reform sought for was the turn
ing out of the ms. Now some of the
ins are honest, clean men who have
spent their lives in the positions they
hold, and did excellent service all the
years they have been SO engaged.
They are in no sense responsible for
the vast mistakes and corruptions of
the republican party or the faulty
policies of the officers given the ma
tional administration. They are men
intimately acquainted with the tech
nique of the places they fill, aud so
long as they are honest and measura-
bly, clean Mr.. Cleveland proposes to
retain them, saving always that they
have not made themselves offensive
by their ultra partizanship. This
doesn't seem to suit the hungry crew
who had the jaundiccd conception of
civil service reform mentioned at the
commencement of this article.
This is hard to bear, but Mr..
Cleveland seems so far to
have a head of his very own,
and we really sec no way to move
him or help matters out-in any other
way. AS a general proposition, when
there is a complete change in the pol
icy of the government there should be
also complete change in the force by
which the policy is handled. Our i'm.
pressiol is we have had that change
when Mr.. Cleveland announced his
cabinet. Other changes will follow as
terms expire, and we feel satisfied that
the places vacated by expiration OF
term will be filled by true demo
Gratis in every instance, or some good
and sufficient reason will be given fol
not doing so. Can anything more be
asked or desired? We do not thinl
so.
Mr.. Cleveland has head of hi
own, and he is not TO be jostled from
his path by any amount of clamor
lie has called about him body o
very able men as his advisors, and he
and they will determine. After tina
there Is no more to be said. Tn,
thing is settled end there is only lief
the satisfaction Of graceful aequics
cence. We arc so much reioicqdt "A
lunge ahead made by the narlon, that
we have it not IN our heort to cayil at
anything, even had we a bitter per-
sonal disappointment in this way.
The general saving and satisfaction is
and will be so great that all else will
be grandly overlooked. AS long as
Mr.. Cleveland's motto is, "honest
clean and capable mel for public
places" so long viii he have the great
body of the people with him.
