 The Hummer, tlicial organ of the Metal Workers, Union, thus hays the gentle Johann Most and those of hi, ilk:
 "Their cry of decentralization and anarchism was raised for he first time when incompetent, muddle- headed and dishonest Bakunin was unable to rule the International Worbingmen's Assoc. atiOn: when he saw that he could not wrench the staff of leadership from the hands of the immortal Karl Marx and honest Fred, Engels. Bakunin wanted tu rule: and as he could not do sO he, at least, wanted tO ruin what the rcntrali- zatiOnists, in their wisdom, fOrsight and experience, had been working for years to build up. And, to this very day, all other ignorant incompetent, muddle- headed and dishonest elements in the labor movement have been initiating the infamous example set them by Michael
 }akunin. John Most raised his cry of 'Anarchsm which really means noth- ing but obey John Most and give him your pennies. and which he has never dared to explain when his domineering ways, his cOncet, his reckless brutality, and other obnoxious personal qualities had made his stay i'll the Social Demo cratic Party of Germany impossible for ever lie cannot contend that he has any principle; and that which he pro claims as such be rational, scientific or honest He raised that cry simply be- cause he lS unable tO assume any eXten- sive leadership; and his followers imi- tate his bad cXanpIe from the same | motive. They are ignorant, mCOmpe- | tent, muddle-headed and dishonest, and being impeled by the desire to rule, to | command, to make themselves heard, | and to boast and brag with their own | great importance. Their programs, | their constitutions, their declarations | of principle, their bureaus of informa | tIOn are rank impOsltIOns, and nothing l but transparent sWindle to deceive dupcs,
 and secure them following of poor
 misguided people. These leaders and
 howleTs care nothing for the emancipa- | ton of labor from the shaCkles of wage
 slavery. They only desire q field of their 1 own, d preteXt for their existence. They
 are not at all sincere and earnest in the | light against the common foe. Their
 principal activity consists i'll bragglng,

H.rrl.On and the oir,l servlce.

Those who are expecting a sudden sweep
Of Federal officials by the new President to
crafty the greed Of the spoismen, would do
we'll TO temper their antlcipations until
they hear from BENJAMIN HARRISON. He
comes " the Presidential Office with proud
lineage, and he not only voted for the pres
emit civil service law when a Republican
Senator, but he boldly defended the polic'
Of civil service reform.
The only indication Of the views and
purposes Of President HARRISON on the
civil service question that has been given
since the election, comes in a leading edi-
torlnl In the indianapolis Journal, of which
the following is the important part:
The tenure Of office law and the civil
service law must be observed in spirit as
well as In letter. Officials commissioned
for four years from the date of their appoint
ment, who are competent and efficient and
who have given no cause for their removal,
will probably be permitted to seive out their
terms, many of which will not expire till a
year or two after the new administration
goes IN. The new President cannot be ex
pected TO make sweeping removals in such
II will likely be disappointed.
It must be remembered that the fore
ecing extract appears in the home organ Of
the presidcnt-elect, and none who know
either the general partisan tone of the or
gan or the views Of the controlling editor,
will for moment suspect that it is an at
tempt TO lead HARRISON into the path of
ciYil service reform. On the contrar, such
leading editorial could have appeared in
the Indianapolis Journal only in obedience
to the command of the new President; and
It Is reasonably safe, therefore, to assume
that the article pointedly defines the civil
service policy Of the coming administration.
President HARRISON will practically de-
eide whether the earnest battle that has
been made for civil service reform, and that
has certainly controlled one Presidential
election, Is to be strengthened or weakened
TO the very verge Of destruction under his
rule. II he shall have the courage TO temp
or partisan rewards with a strong flavor OF
civil service reform, as CLEVELAND Aas
done, he will compel the obedience of his
party and make fair standard of civil
service reform the fixed policy of the gov
srnmont. That he means to do so, seems
reasonably certain from the positive de-
clarations of his home organ, and If he
shall prove equal to the task his organ for.
