An Unjust Charge Against Democrats.

Tho Hon. EDWARD J. DUNPHY OF the Sew
enth district OF New York was not, as re-
ported, among those Democratic Congress
mon whose almost criminal Indifference was
said to have caused tho defeat of Mr.. LEHII-
BACu's amendment to tho LODGE Election
bill last Tuesday. The Congressional Record
shows that Mr.. DUNPHY was paired with
MIR. DE LANo of New York, a Republican
who would have voted against the amend
ment; and Mr.. DUNPnY, therefore, was not
n dolinuuent. His vote counted as II 1t had
been recorded.
Tho same remark applies to Congressman
eTAHLNECKER of Yonkers. who has also
been accused unjustly OF deserving his post
Mt q critical juncture. Mr.. STAHLNECKER
was paired with Mr.. PIcKLER Of South Da"
kota; and the pair was announced at the
time Of the vote.
Unpleasant things, also. have been said
about tho Hon. AsuBEL p FITCH. The Nc,C
York Herald has put Mr. FITCH's rame at
the head OF list Of Democrats responsible
for tho defeat Of the LEHLBACH amendment
Mr.. FITCH is not hero to defend himself,
having sailed on Thursday last for Europe;
but the fact is that he was paired on Tues
day and until Thursday with Congressman
WHEELER Of Michigan.
The narrowncss Of tho margin by which
the LODGE bill escaped q gripping blow, in
tho shape OF Mr.. LEHLBACH's adroit amend
ment. has suggested an attempt to fix the
responsibility upon somebody. This has led
to hasty injustice in some cases. The truth
is that the Congressional Record shows
only flfty-eight members who did not
vote either for or against the LEHLBACH
amendment; and tho twenty-five pairs
announced Immediately after the vote cover
the cases OF forty-four out Of the flfty-eight
absentees. or the remaining fourteen Rep
resentatives who neither voted nor were
paired, eleven are Republicans and three
are Democrats; namely. FELIX CAMPBELL
of Brooklyn JASON B. BROWN Of Indiana,
and JAMES B. REILLY OF Pennsylvania. The
votes OF these three absent and impaired
Democrats would not have changed the fate
OF the LEHLBACH amendment.
On the final vote on the passage Of the
LODGE bill only twenty-four members were
absent, and only six MEMBERS all Republi
cans, were both absent and impaired. Every
Democrat In the House Is on the journal as
against the outrageous scheme Of Federal
interference at tho polls.
This is wonderful if not an unparalleled
record Of fidelity. 1t is a pleasure to say
that in the most important political battle OF
the last ten years no Democratic Congress
man skulked or shirked his duty

How Did II Get IMP

The Pennsylvania Democratic platform
arraigns the Republican party "for its open
disregard Of the provisions OF tho Civil Ser
| vice law, which the President OF It's choice
was solemnly pledged to support" This
| count In the Indictment against the Repub-
licans is made as important as the count
against tho Federal Election law, and occu-
pies moro space. AS for that dangerous
measure the platform is very mild. The Re-
publican party is denounced for ats attempts
to pass Federal Election law, designed to
excite race war;" Was it In compliment to
GROVER CLEVELAND that the Civil Service
law was so absurdly magnifled?
1t is well for political platform to be true
in all its parts There is enough tobc brought
against the Republican party without resort
ing to minor or untenable accusations.
We are not aware that the present Admins
tration has violated the Civil Service law.
An investigation by committee OF the
House Of Representatives has shown
that there has been loose and crooked
work in the Civil Service Commission;
but most of 1t was in Mr.. CLEvELAND'S
time. Nobody connected with the Adj
minlstraton Is in sympathy with the law,
but our impression is that 1t has not been
openly violated. Probably the examination
machine turns out Republicans now just as
it turned out Democrats for the last Adj
ministration; or else appointing officers
have an instructive knowledge OF the politics
of eligibles whose names are sent In to
them by the Commission, and evade the
law unconsciously and inevitably. The
law Is an absurdity and cannot DO
rigidly enforced until there is change In
American human nature. Between probes
sion and practice of attachment to civil SER
vice reform there is the same yawning chasm
now as in tho CLEVELAND Administration.
but there was more sickenlng hypocrisy and
cant about it in the latter
But whether the charge made by the Penn
sylvania Democrats is true or not, 1t is ride
ulous In their mouths. What do they caro-
about Chinese civil service As much as the
Democrats of the rest OF the country care.
They love it as bull loves red gowns or a
cat to get its feet wet Most Of them despise
and hate it, and the feeling Of the rest for it
Is not moro than indifference. few Demo-
Gratis whom Mugwump communications
have corrupted, dote upon the unclean
thing; but the great majority detest 1t.
Toreproach, then, the Republicans for their
course in regard to tho Civil Service law
savors of false pretences. Moreover, that
part OF the Pennsylvania platform is likely
to disgust all the old-lne Democrats, and no
Republican will be ured into boiling thereby.
