THE POLICY OF military appointments
recently announced by Mr.. Cleveland
ought to make warm friends for the
President among all friends of Justice
everywhere, in fact, excepting with those
who, through n system of flagrant
nepotism, are living in expectancy of
soft places to which they are not en-
titled, and those who are now enjoying
such positions under the same long. con
tinued system which they never de-
served. The Presidents policy is that
promotions should be made, appoint
ments designated and vacancies filed on
the ground of length and merit of service
instead of favoritism. The patronage Of
the army, which has for many years
been considered sort of executive per-
quisite, he says, will no longer be so con-
sidered, 80 far as 1t devolves upon him to
dispense it; and we can rest assured
that he means what he says. Military
service reform is of quite as much
importance as civil service reform and,
as suggested by President Cleveland, is
free from all the Objectionable features
of the latter. 1t is reform, plain and
simple, giving assurance that army officers
who have served long and faithfully are
not to be set aside and ignored for the
benefit of the friends and relatives of the
appointing power, or for the sake of poll
ticians who have relatives and friends to
provide for. In other words the honors
to be distributed are to go where they be-
long, instead of being filched by young
and inexperienced officers who have
never earned them and whose only rec
ommendation is Influence"
The retirement of Colonel Simpson of
the Subsistence Department of the
Army, and the promotions consequent
thereon, afford the President an oppor-
tunity of putting his principles into
practise in filing the vacancy caused by
the promotion of Captain S. T. Cushing
to the rank of major. There are said to
be no less than sixty applications for
this vacancy, and many of them, no
doubt, in behalf Of persons who have
travelled no long and arduous road to
preferment, but who hope to slip into a
place that they have never fairly won.
The assurance is given out In general
way that the honor will go to none OF
these. however strong their social or
political backing may be, but to some OF
the first lieutenants who have served ten
fifteen, twenty years or more without
advancement of rank, and who in al
probability have seen more than ono
undeserving favorite boosted above them
The purpose of the President, as We
understand it, is to do justice in the
matter, and his selection will be made
solely upon the basis of merit.
The Washington critic., 1888-08-29

In THE sENATE's discussion of the Sum
dry Civil bill yesterday, Mr. Vest made
some very strong and pointed remarks
about the removal of the City Postollice
to what Mr. Allison termed the "ro-
tunda" of the Pension building. lie
considers the arrangement the worst
that could be made; ''it defaces the Pen
sion Bureau building, it insures the pres
ence Of mob there from morning till
night, and altogether there is not one
solitary argument given in its favor thus
far" Continuing, he said;
And we know very woll--I know It as a MON.
ber OF the Committee on Public Buildings and
Grounds If YOU ever make an arrangement Of
that kind 10 will become permanent, and you
will never get the City Postofflce out Of that
buildlng-nevor
THE CRITIC quite agrees with the SEN
ator. AS Mr.. Vest suggests, the chances
are that the Office, once removed to its
proposed new quarters, will stay there
Interest in the matter, so far as Congress
is concerned, will die out, the people
will resign themselves TO the iniliction
and it will be next to impossible to Sc
cure any further legislation on the sub
ject.
1t is still possible for the two Houses to
come to an agreement on the question of
location and settle the whole business ut
this session. The present differences are
apparently irreconciIable; but by tho
adoption of the Richardson bill. COM
promise, satisfactory to the entire com
munity, can easily be reached.
This bill provides for the appoint
ment of commission to whom the Sc
lection of site shall be referred, and
whose decision shall be final. Such a
measure relieves Congress at once of a
perplexiug responsibility, and makes
practicable its fair and speedy adjust
ment.

EX-SENATOR WARNER MILLER of New
York is fifty years old this month, and
his nomination to the Governorship so
unanimously rendered him at Saratoga
yesterday, is in the nature of semi-cen-
tennial honor. Whether he is to win
the race or not, is another thing; but he
is a veteran campaigner and tireless
worker, and the man who takes the
course against him will have no walk
over
The Washington critic., 1888-08-29

THERE is more or less buncombe IN all
the current talk about exuavagant APP
propriations by Congress. II seems to be
forgotten that the country is all the time
growing at rapid rate and that the ne
cessties of the Government increase at a
similar pace, and there is really no
startling disproportion between the APP
preparations for the present fiscal year
and those Of several years preceding,
even if they are ninety odd millions

more. AS for any fear of exhausting
the surplus by excessive expenditures 1t
may well be discarded. AS Mr.. Beck
said in the Senate yesterday, there need
be no alarm about there not being idle
surplus money enough for all purposes.
Nor will the proposed reduction Of tax
alton begin TO wipe it out.

Farewell, my little sweetheart,

Aud you've too much OF gold
A puzzle, this, 10 worldlings,

Who think that gold 10 silver
Should count As mutual prize.

And you're not sordid soulod;

ate yesterday that during the whole
time the Committee on Appropriations
was considering the selection of site for
the new city postoflice, no human being
ever came near any Of them in the in

statement was corroborated by Mr.. ALI

the truth. but If THE CRITIC is correctly
advised, the House Committee on Public
