About thirty republican representatives

THE CIUIL SERVICE.
It's Workings shown by the Annual
Report of the Commission.

WAsHINGToN, Dec. 1.-The annual report
of the civil service commissioners shows
that the classified service has grown to in
clude over thirty thousand of the appointees
who came into departmental service through
civil service examinations during Cleve-
lands administration. little over per
cent were removed or resigned during the
first year Of the present administration.
Similarly, of the appointees who entered the
service through these examinations during
President Arthur's administration between
and pcr cent were removed or resigned
during President Cleveland's first year
"When we turn to the customs
and postal services" says the report, 'the
result is less satisfactory, because of the nee
essarily less rigorous inspection"
After further review of the operations of
the commission during the fiscal year the re-
port says: at cannot too often be reiterated
that while the law may not work with ideal
perfection actual experience for seven years
has shown that it produces on the whole a
better governmental administration than does
the patronage system.n

THE prosperity OF Omaha workingmen
rests on the up-building of home indus
tries. ''Patronize home institutions" is
the slogan of every we'll managed labor
organization, because it means steady
employment for workingmen, and neces-
sarily the ability to meet their obliga-
tions and provide the essential comforts
of home life. This principle should be
rigidly upheld with regard to public
works. 1t is an outrage to send abroad
any part of the taxes paid by Oma ha
property owners. 1t is an insult to
worllingmen and an outrage on mer-
chants who are fully capable OF supply
ing the needs of the city in any depart
ment. But the combine controlling the
affairs of the city have ignored Omaha
bidders and given contracts to foreign,
firms, thus depriving local merchants of
business which legitimately belongs to
them, and robbing Omaha workingmen
for the benefit of Chicago. The out
ragged taxpayers are in honor bound to
resent at the polls this scoundrelly be-
trayal Of local interests.
Omaha daily bee., 1890-12-02

Hitchcock exhibits himself TO the peo-
pie Of Omaha in his true light-as the
champion OF iobbers and corporation
tools and as the mainstay Of the conspir-
ators who have for the last twelve
months carried on their bold and un-
scrupulous Vaccinations with boodlers,
contractors and dishonest city officials.
He has the impudence to endorse as
faithful servants men who have not only
betrayed every trust, but have foisted
upon Omaha the star-chamber and
Tammany methods. Prosecuted, indeed!
So have burglars, pickpockets and foot
pads been prosecuted by the police, So
were Tweed and his gang prosecuted by
the papers and law officers of New York
who brought them to justice. So were
McGarigle and the Chicago boodlers
prosecuted by the citizens committee of
Chicago which drove them from power
and sent several of them to the peniten-
tiary and Canada.
What did this gang ever refuse to do
for THE BEE ? Only two weeks ago
they made proposals to the editor

most ardent supporters, who is con-
nected with paving and sidewalk con-
tracts, to do anything he wanted and
work with him politically and withdraw
their libel suits providing THE BEE
would drop the fight and remain neutral
during the city campaign. 1t is hardly
necessary to say this tempting offer of
friendship and good will was not ac-
cepted.
THE BEE has no axe to grind with
councilmen. 1t has no interest in the
council excepting such as it has in COM
mon with all other citizens and tax.
payers.
The most charitable construction that
can be made of Hitchcocli's collusion
with and support of the leaders of the
combine gang is his insane ambition to
antagonize THE BEE and his idiotic no.
tion that he can only succeed by block
ing every measure which THE BEE ad-
vocates.

Notice,

1nasmuch as several candidates for office
at the election today request that they have
permission to be present personally or by
representation at the several polling places
during the canvass, find the law on the
question to be:
Chapter 20, compiled statutes, ELECTIONS"
section 33-"When the poll is closed tho
judges shall Immediately proceed to canvass
and ascertain the result of the election"
Section 34-"And the canvass shall be pub
lc,n etc.
Chapter %, section o, compiled ordinances
-"The judges of election shall possess full
power to maintain order du ring the canvass" ="
In reference to section 81, would respect
fully request that the judges permit at least
two representatives of each candidate to be
present during the canvass; by so doing the
spirit of the law will be fully carried out.

THE SEVENTH WARD.

The scandalous and lawless manner in
which large numbers of republicans were
disfranchised at the Seventh ward prim-
airy has aroused a great deal of resent
ment, not only among supporters of M.
l.. Roeder, but among republicans who
were not very partial to that gentle.
man.
The only fitting rebuke that can be
administered to Chaffee and his hench-
men is to repudiate his fraudulent nomi-
nation. This can be done effectively by
rallying to Mr.. Roeder's support and
defeating Chaffee at the election.
Mr.. Roeder is a republican and was
loyal to the party when Chaffee joined
the conspiracy hatched and carried out
by the Twenty eight club Nobody can
question Mr.. Roeder's ability to repre-
sent the ward. He is an energetic,
enterprising and public-spirited citizen
with an ambition to gain prominence in
political life. He has made some per-
sonal enemies by his persistency, but it
takes man of great persistence and
backbone to fight down such combina-
tion as has been at the back of Chatfee.
The only way to do up the combine is
to beat it now and keep it under the DO
litical sod In the language of great
Indian fighter "a dead Indian is good

ALL things being equal home institu-
tions are entitled to precedence in the
award of public contracts. But Davis,
Wheeler and Chaffee, who engineer the
city hall work, do not believe in home
institutions only SO far as they subserve
their personal gain. The trickery
shown in rejecting Plumber Rowe's bid,
although the lowest, and the division of
the work between Davis man Friday
and Chicago firm, was the most shame
less specimen of favoritism shown in the
city hall job since the selection of the

THE THREE PERSECCTED COUNCIL MEN
Mr. d. III. Wheeler in the Fourth ward
Mr. Chaffee in the Seventh ana Mr.. Davis in
the Ninth, have earned by their faithful and
intelligent service of the people in the council
a return to that body.
They are the republicans and have the re-
publican nominations in the wards named
Ordinarily they would be elected, as their
wards are republican. Because they have re-
fused to become the tools of the editor OF The
BEE he has commenced and is carrying on a
furious fight against them The usual vtu-
peration and iusanely bitter denunciation are
employed TO blacken their characters and de-
feat them.
ltwould be unfortunate If any man, whether
editor or party boss, should be allowed to
drive from the council faithful servants of
the people, merely because they had refused
TO surrender theirmanhood and independence
of action at his dictation.
1t is quite likely, therefore, that taxpayers,
workingmen and thoughtful voters generally,
regardless of party, will largely give their
support to these three men who have been
the leading spirits in the present council and
who are known to be men Of intelligence and
good character in the business world

THE franchised corporationsof of Omaha
are deaf to the lessons of experience.
Instead of uniting with property owners
having the interest of the city at heart,
they seltishly combine with the doodle
elements and follow the tactics which
precipitated in othor states vigorous
restrictive laws against corporations.
Similar acts of reprisal will follow in
Omaha if the corporations persist in
their efforts to foist corrupt officials on
