Turn the Rascals Out.

During the campaign Democratic
stump speakers shouted themselves
hoarse trying to convince the people
that the Republican party had be-
come so corrupt that it could no
longer be trusted with the admins
tration of the Government. We were
told that all sorts of frauds had been
practiced and that Republican Off
Gals, as a general thing, were dis
honest. For month and a-half the
country has been under Democrat adj
ministration, but during that time no
Republican rascality has been expos
ed and no Republican official has been
turned out for rascality. Resigna-
tions have been called for and re-
movals made, but not on account of
dishonesty, unfaithfulness or incom-
potency. The heads of departments,
1t seems. have found the government
80 efficiently managed that they are
not afraid to trust the employees
whom they found in Office to contin.
une in the service until they have
time to revolutionize affairs. 1t was
generally supposed that changes
would be made, and it has been
matter of surprise to Republicans that
there have not been more. Not only
has this been matter of surprise to
Democrats and Mugwumps, but the
fact that changes are so few has crea-
ted wide spread discomfort among the
thousands of blowers and strikers
who had been promised Offices as re-
yards for political services to the grand
old constitutional Democratic reform
party. We beg pardon, we should
have written the reform with big
r. The President having an eye to
the reputation of his administration,
is moving cautiously and slowly, be-
cause it is question whether the
changes which are being made will
be an improvement in the service
from business point of view. Before
the election the cry was "turn the
rascals out" and we are not surpris-
ed that there is disappointment and
discomfort because there are no ras-
Gals to turn out. The fact is, govern
ment servants as rule have been so
faithful and efficient that the process
Of turning them out has become some.
what embarrassing. If, however,
there be any rascals. we say with all
our heart "turn them out" but let
the administration see to it that there
places are not filed with rascals, for
there be some in the "grand old Dem
ocratic party" as we'll as elsewhere.

Our Washington Letter,

From Our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., April Is.
The fact that as many bills were
Introduced in the last Congress alone
as were introduced in all of the Con-
crosses for the first fifty years of the
Government, speaks we'll for our re-
gard for the public printer. Nearly
1000 copies ofevery bill are printed
when it is introduced, When the bill
is reported, another 1000 copies are
printed. Ifamended by the crossing
of a st" or the dotting of an 81" in
either House, another 200 copies
have to be printed, and when passed
still another 1000 copies must be
printed. The arithmetic informs US
that here are little more than $500
900 copies of bills thrown off by the
Government presses during a single
Congress simply upon the first action
taken with these bills, but when we
reflect that about one third of them
go to committees and are reported
upon one way or the other, we ascer-
tain that about 100000 of them
are printed only to find their way to
the junk-dealer and the market man.
In fact larger amount of Congress.
i0nal literature can be encountered
in the stalls of the Washington City
market, than in any of the Govern
ment repositories of rubbish at the
Capitol. The agitation of reform in
the useless practice of printing bills
upon which no action is taken, is
just as much in order as is the propo-
sltiOn to effect reform in the abom-
Unable pratice of printing the unde-
llvered speeches of members, which
in the last session of Congress made
an extra volume of the Record, COW
ering about 1000 pages.
Manifestly the sweeping changes
in the clerical force in the several de-
partments that were expected, have,
been indefinitely postponed, and for
good reason, The heads of the de-
partments could not if they would
endanger the public service by sud-
denly depriying it of the experience
so necessary in the proper conduct of
the Government, and they have very
sensibly come to the conclusion that
the interests of the Government are
paramount to those of the expectant

Old Documents.

The Western Democratic senator
who called on Cleveland to urge an
appointment for friend, and who
was confronted with written appli-
cation in favor ofanother man for the
same office, illustrated one of the
amusing humbugs of patronage. 1t
has been the custom of members of
Congress and senators to sign any
body's application, it mattered not
how many applied for the same of.
flee. These papers were placed on
file, and usually never heard of again,
unless backed up by peasonal solicit
tation. 1t was regarded as a cOnven-
lent way to get rid of the importuni-
ties of ffice-seekers. But now Pres
ident Cleveland affects to take these
old papers very seriously, and ac-
cepts the written application of "a
man of influence" as of greater digni-
ty than his verbal application.
This may work out some singular
results. Sometimes, during the Re-
publican administrations, the hold
ers of offices who feared removal
would get Endorsements by their
friends, Democrats among the rest,
stating that the incumbent was a
good and efficient officer, of good
moral character-and SO on. Demo-
Gratis, where the question was be-
tween one Repubublican and anoth
err. might sometimes 'endorse" the
one who was in. But when the
Democratic President comes in diff
ferent face is put upon the matter.
There are Democratic applicants for
the place, backed up by personal so.
licitation and delegations. Then it
is that the old papers are overhauled,
and the Democratic endorsements of
the Republican incumbent brought
forward to reinforce civil service re.
form. 1t produces an almost comic
effect; and yet these old papers may
do great service in siIencing the clam
ors of the broom brigade.
