PH!LLIPIC.

The open letter of Judge Edgerton,
eX-civil service commissioner, to the
president, is by far the raciest bit Of
political literature of the day. 1t will
not only be highly entertaining to the
political opponents Of Mr.. Cleveland,
but it will be anything but displeasing
TO II very large number Of democrats
with whose views of civil service reform
Judge Edgerton is in full sympathy.
The fact of the removal of Edgerton
from the Office of civil service commls-
%sioner, and the nomination of Mr..
Thompson to succeed him, Is familiar
to the public. The removed official
was first asked to resign, and having re-
fused to do so the superintendent took
summary action. The obvious motive
was to supply Thompson, who will of
course retire from his position in the
treasury department very soon after the
incoming of the next administration
with q comfortable berth during the re-
manning two years of Edgerton's term,
and not to rebuke the latter for his
shortcomings asa civil service reformer.
The president has known since very
shortly after the appointment Of Judge
Edgerton that he was not in sympathy
with his associate commissioners, and
that nearly everything done by them
was in opposition to his views and wishes.
He is u democrat of the old school,
and therefore a firm believer in the
famous dictum of Marcy and the policy
of Jackson regarding the public officers.
Yet with a full knowledge of his senti-
ments and his bad faith the president
allowed Judge Edgerton to remain in
Office until Il few days ago, never hay
ing at any time before even minated,
according to the letter of the Judge,
the least disapproval of his course.
The blunt old politician finds no diff
Guilty in supplying an explanation Of

Senator Spooner recently introduced
in the United States senate a bill pro-
viding for the maintenance of a system
Of farmers institutes as a part of the
work OF the new department of agricul-
ture. The plan Contemplates the hir-
ing of lecturers, the holding of insti-
tutes in the agricultural section OF the
country, under government direction,
for experiments, discussion and the in
struction Of farmers, ana the printing
Of matter pertaining to the work of the
institutes. This proposition may be
creditable TO the interest OF Senator
Spooner in the welfare of the farmers
Of the country, ana it is possible
that the proposed rural debat-
ing clubs would accomplish some
good, but we think most people. inClud-
ing intelligent farmers, will agree that
the p%atcrual functions Of the govern
ment were never intended to extend
quite so far as this. If so. where could
the line be drawn at which the duty of
the government to provide institutes for
experiment, discussion and instruction
should cease2 Are there not other
toilcrs who would have a warrantable
claim to such consideration if farmers
were given it? Admitting that there
would. where would such n policy of pa
ternal concern for the education OF the
different industrial classes stop?
1t will be wise for congress
not to devolve any extraordinary
duties and responsibilities upon the
new department of agriculture at the
outset. The work laid out in the bill
creating the department is sufficient for
a time. or until it gets into perfect work.
ing order, and to add to it will only
serve to retard the organization OF the
department and the arrangement Of its
business for the most efficient service.
When it is in perfect working condition
will be the time to consider in what di-
rections its usefulness can be extended,
and undoubtedly proposals to add to its
functions and labors will not be wanting;
but at no time will it probably eve be
found desirable to carry out such a
scheme as that proposed by senator
Spooner. The farmers OF the country
have not asked it, and we do not be-
lieve they would generally approve it.
Government aid in sustaining expert
ment stations and other legitimate
helps to the promotion of agricultural
knowledge and Improvement should be
maintained under judicious regulations,
but it is obviously no part of the bust
ness of the government to support in
situations which would amount tie little
more than debating clubs and social
gatherings. Undoubtedly congress will
take this view of Mr.. Spooner's PROPOSE
ton.

THE cotton manufacturing center OF
the country, FalE River, Mass, is hav-
ing q boom IN mill building, and the
question is asked by the Boston papers
whether the conditions justify it. Last
year was the best in cotton manufacture
ing since the depression of 1873 and
1879, but whether equally good results
can reasonably be expected to continue,
so as to warrant an expenditure Of mil
lions in putting up new mills, is the ques-
ton. Evidently the practical manufac-
turers count upon a continuance of pros
perity, and may not this evidence OF en-
larged enterprise be fairly regarded as a
symptom of u feeling of confidence
in the immediate future of business
pretty general among the manufac tur-
ing industries of the country? A four
years period of comparative freedom
from agitation involving their interests
is assured, with the probability OF its
being extended. Reforms in the fiscal
policy of the government will undoubt-
eddy take place during this period, but
the manufacturers are warranted in
feeling hat they will be effected so as
not to imperil their enterprises while
giving relief to the people, and with
this understanding they can confidently
enlarge the scope of their enterprises.
The boom at Fall River may fairly be
regarded as a symptom of u general re-
vival of manufacturing activity.

reasonable that it will be. generally
accepted. II presume he says,
there were prudential political
reasons why you did not make
the removal until after election
OF course there we're, for Judge
Edgerton represented the general sem
timcnt among Indiana democrats re-
| garding civil service reform. as well as
of many elsewhere, and to have removed
him would lave beer to surrender that
state in advance. But IL is not apDar-
ent, as the judge implies, that his re-
moval was prompted by any political
motive, such as regaining the conf
dence of the mugwumps with a view to
their future support. Had it been Mr..
Cleveland would hardly have made the
mistake of appointing Thompson, Ahan
whom he could have found hardly any
one more offensive to the radical
civil service reformers. The fact
is that Thompson is q southern
man of the class peculiarly in favor with
Mr.. Cleveland, and the president de-
sired to make the best provision for him
he could. The senate, however, stands
in the way, and Judge Edgerton may
find some qualification in the failure of
Mr.. Cleveland to fully carry out his
plan.
The president will not be amused by
the judges enumeration of his predomi-
nant characteristics, though he ought
to know that this candid critic has said
no more than has been privately spoken

him in the last election. Other pOr-
tions of Judge Edgerton's letter are also
not calculated to make happier the
closing days of MIR. Cleveland's presi-
dental term, provided he can realize
that they reflect a nearly universal
sentiment. On the whole this letter, if
not a vindicatlon Of its author, is an ex-
ceedlngly interesting contribution to
current political literature, and alto
gether the fairest and most candid ar
raignment of Mr.. Cleveland ever made
by a democrat.
