NON-PARTIsAN EMPLOYEES,
A Bill to Take Labor Appointments Out
of Politics.

WASHINGTON CITY, March 20.-Represen-
tative Andrews, of Boston, has completed
the report on his bill 'to exclude political
influence in the employment of laborers
under authority of the United States,'
and will submit it to the House tomorrow.
The bill will affect some q, 900 employees,
and will require that henceforth they
shall be appointed or employed without
regard to political considerations.
The system contemplated by the bill
will not require certihcations through the
civil service commission. The only pur-
pose of the legislation. Andrews points
out, is to compel the appointment of prop
erly qualified. men in the order of their
application, without the delays of
cumbersome machinery. Andrews saws
of the 49, go employees in the ex-
ecutive department only 3O,726 are
subject to competitive examination. The
bill proposes wide extension and simplifi-
cation of q non-partisan system at much
less cost than heretofore. 1t is not pro-
posed to require competitive examination
for the scholastic test of Iaborers. The
rules according to which they are to be
employed are to be left to the discretion of
the civil service commission, but il is in
tended that the rules shall simply pro-
vide for physical fitness and good character
of the applicant. No more labor will be-
required on the part of the appointing
officers than at present. When the ex-
igencies of the case necessitate il employ
ment may be made without the system Of
registration.
