The DUty Of an. senate.

The Phoenix fnds itself we'll sustained in
its position that the Republican Senators are
bound, on civil service reform principles to
enquire into the causes Of the removals made
by the President, and to insist that faithful,
non partisan officials shall not be removed to
make places for Democratic partisan workers
The New York Evening Post chief of the
Mugwump papers, says editorially that the
Senate is 'the tribunal provided by the Con
stitution for asoertaining the character of the
persons appointed to and removed from Of
foe, and that the President must stand or
fall by the standard set for himself in his let.
ter TO Mr.. Curtis, which was the following
There is a class OF government positions
which are not within the letter of the civil
service statute, but which are 30 disconnect-
ed with the policy of an administration that
the removal therefrom OF present incum-
bents, in my opinion, should not be made
during the terms for which they were ap.
pointed solely on partisan grounds, and for
the purpose of putting in their places those
who are in political accord with the appoint
ing power. But many now holding such po-
stions have forfeited all Just claims to reten-
ton because they have used their places for
party purposes in disregard of their duty to
the people, and because, instead of being de-
cent public servants, they have proved them
selves offensive partHans and INSCRIPTIONS
manipulators of local party management
In other words, according to the Post, it
will be the plain constitutional duty of the
Senate to enquire, in the case of Collector
Wells, for instance, whether he was de
cent public servant, " and whether he could
be rightly accused of being an offensive par.
tisan' and an interruptions manipulation of
local party management"
The Post adds the gratuitous opinion that
Republican Senators will hesitate to adopt
this course, because of the inconvenient pre-
cedent which would thereby be established
to apply when the Republicans return to
power To this We have to say that it is a
precedent which we should like to see rigidly
adhered to, no matter what party holds the
power, and so would every man with self
respect and honesty of purpose enough to
want TO see the civil service Of the country
elevated above the control of party manipu-
lation
In this connection the Boston journal
makes the pertinent suggestion that if the
President is really anxious to hold out against
the Democratic spoilsmen he will welcome
the help which the Senate has it in its power
to give him in rejecting conspicuously unfit
nominations which have been forced upon
him
