answers to MIR. waIsh's Questions.

answers to MIR. WaIsh's Questions.
Before MIR. Patrick Walsh, Of the Au-
gusta Chronicle, gets through pub
fishing the answers to his questions,
whether President Cleveland's civil ser
vice policy isn't failure and whether it
isn't calculated to damage the Demo
cratic party, it is probable that he will
have reached the conclusion that he
formed a hasty and an incorrect impress
sion relative to the cHrdition OF public
sentiment respecting the Presidents civil
service reform policy.
On Wednesday the Chronicle published
two letters in answer TO the questions,
one without signature and the other
signed by VIM. NJ. Reese, OF Wash
in0tOn, Ga. We make
short extract from Mr.. Reese's
letter not only because it is a very strong
letter, but also because he has put his
name to 1t. In answer to the question,
"W mat do YOU think OF the civil service
policy Of President Clevelandi" he says:
81 heartily indorse it. The public Offices
Of the United States government which do
not involve the political policy OF the
President. simply requiring OF the persons
holding them honesty, fidelity, attention,
and skill, ought not to be mixed up with
the results of Presidential election. AS
read the history OF this and other coun-
tries nothing is more certain to demon
aize our voting population, inter
iere with the business OF the
country, and jeopardize the very exist
ence Of the government Itself than 70
make the Offices Of the country every four
years the rewards Of political PARTISAN
ship. In my humble opinion the civil
service act. enacted by the aid Of leading
Democrats, several years before Mr..
Cleveland became President-an act
which the present Democratic House OF
Representatives refuses 10 repeal--an act
which prevents the President from re-
moving very large part of the public
officers OF the United states except for
causes connected with the discharge "
official duties is one OF the beat laws ever
put on the statute book. / honor the
President for his faithful execution OF
this law and for his devotion TO it's prin-
emile. +"

Manning and His Medicines.

WASHINGTON, April IAN intimate friend

All his life had dread Of diving suddenly, In
