Hitler and Barngrover, who was one of the
sons-in law of Mr. Hiler During the trial

Before the terro,iZed spectators could
realize what had happened the murderer
was seen standing IN the middle of the

OF course the Union is carried to he
seventh heaven on account of the election
Of Tom Reed in Maine. In fact, its ex-
ultation is so great that one would be
justified in reasoning that it entertained
before the election grave doubt as to his
success. But it was hardly to be ex-
pected that Reed could be defeated, tax
ing everything into consideration in re-
publican state like Maine. But why did
so many oily-tongued fellows leave their
congressional duties in Washington for
the purpose of helping out the gentleman
at his own home il no fear was expressed
regarding his success? The fact is Mr.
Reed himself was in doubt-nOt regard
ing his election, perhaps, but as to the
extent of his majority. He knew the
feeling in the country. He knew his own
deserts and although he did not receive
them he is in no way less worthy. In gain
ing his point everybody was corrupted
who was not proof against it. The use
of money was unlimited; the use of every
means. irrespective of honor, was adopt
ed. The decent republicans. no matter
how much they despised Reed and his
methods, gave him their vote because the
party itself stood in need OF some exter-
ior recognition. 1t was desperate case,
but Reed pulled through with a good ma
jOrity. He knew the detestation in which
he was held and openly said that if be
could obtain a thousand majority he
would be satisfied. He knew himself
better than the voters. but the republican
voters are slow to learn when it comes to
matter of national advantage.

PORTER ON THE CIVIL SERVICE.

He Gives the House Committee His Views
of the Matter.
WASHINGTON CITY. Sept. l0-The house
committee on reform in the civil service,
which has been investigating the general
workings of the civil service system for
some time past, continued its investiga-
ton yesterday by examining Superinten-
dent of Census Porter. Mr.. Porter's tes-
timony was entirely favorab to the merit
system. He said that men who passed the
best examination made the best clerks,
and attributed the good work of the CEN
sus bureau this year partly to the better
class of men obtained by the examinations.
The persons employed in the census Office
had been examined by com missioner APP
pointed from the bureau instead of by the
regular civil service commi ssioners, for
several reasons, one being Il at If the reg
ular commission exapineS applicants it
would have brought many people here
from all over the country, who would
have been left stranded when they had
been employed few mouths
Some Changes ne Would Make.
He promoted employees in his office en-
tirely on the merit system. He advocated
a change in the present plan of civil serv-
ice appointment. First, he would have
each department examine applicants for
employment therein, instead of a general
civil service commission doing that
duty; second, he would have appoint
ments made for a term of years, with
preference for reappointment if the
appointee proved efficient. This latter
would enable the departments to weed
out aged and useless persons who were
kept entirely out of sympathy. Under
any rule the honest enforcement of a
civil service law would depend largely
upon the honesty of subordinate officials.

LONDON. Sept. 10-William O'Brien
and his party will sail for the United
States on Oct. ]. The tour will constitute
the most important American campaign
undertaken in the cause of Irish patriot
ism since the visit of Parnell. The chief
aim of O'Brien and his companion will be
to accomplish the formation of a moder-
ate Irish party in the United States, dis
tinct from that which generally has the
upper hand in Irish matters. They
hav e had strict instructions to have no
dealings whatever with the physical force
party, and to ignore or repudiate at all
times violent or aggressive spirits who
have disgraced Irish patriotism by their
preaching of dynamite and murder. The
delegates will appoint agents of the Land
league in all the important cities and in
dustrial and commercial centers of Amer
lea, and will collect donations to the
patriotic fund and send them direct to
Dublin, instead of permitting them to go
through Chicago as center, as has been
done hitherto
Parnell Gets the Upper Hand.
Parnell and his friends have finally sue
ceeded in acquiring sufficient strength
and influence to insist upon their pur-
poses and views being accepted as the con-
trolling influence in the Land league, and
after years of polite forbearance and
diplomatic effort, apparently have brought
the great mass of the Irish people into a
frame of mind compatible with proper po-
litical agitation in behalf of Ireland, as
distinguished from the wrong healed and
criminal methods which it was impossible
to overcome and change to good by any
other behavior than that which has
marked ParnelPs course and that of his
most able compatriots.
