What Is Civ,l-Servlco Reform?

WNaI lS ClXlL-StTNACb
Let no Democrat do the new President
OF the United States the injustice OF as
Stunning. "a IL seems to DO the disposition
in some quarters 10 assume. that when no
declares he is in favor of civii-service re-
form and of giving the government ofhces
20 men whose efficiency promises a fair
return Of work for the compensation PAID
to them," he means that the Offices must
be turned over to the Republicans or left
in their possession. Let no Democrat do
his party the injustice OF assuming that
Democratic officials cannot be ex-
pected to be as efficient" az hepuo-
lican officials. We shall give away
our whole case il We admit. even
by implication. that the Democratic
party cannot "officer" the government
with as good men as the Republican party
and find fault with our new President De
cause he holds that public Office Is a pubic
trust. and saws in effect that his appolntees
must at least promise to be "ef1cient'
We know that in using the word pro-
mise" in this connection he does not mean
70 say that he or his secretaries VIII exact
promises" from good Democrats. but
merely that all Democratic appointees VIII
be men whose reputation and qualifica-
lions give reason to hope that they Will
I'LL the Offices with efficiency. we might
90 further aud argue that the woru pro-
mise was used by the President to sig
nifty that his appointees would be, not he
pubiicans already in Office. but Democrats
who would be as efficient" IN ONCE as
had been the Republicans whom they ex-
pected TO supersede.
To the kind of oivil-service reform to
which Mr.. CLEVELAND pledges himself we
make no objection. The government Of
fees ought TO be filled by competent,
trustworthy. faithful. industrious men.
and the President cannot rightfully be
censured for expressing this opinion. But
surely this does not argue that they must
be filed by Republicans. Surely there are
thousands aud tens OF thousands OF COM
potent, trustworthy, faithful, industrious
Democrats. Such Democrats are not
scarce by anv means, and Mr.. CLEVELAND
ought to be and would DO the last man in
the United States TO admit that there are
not among the voters who elected him
President competent men enough 10 MI
all the offices of government.
We hold, therefore, that the President
will not undertake to carry out policy OF
..ivil-seryine reform which shall be based
upon the assumption that efficient service
can be expected only of the Repub-
lican officials now in possession of
tho Offices of the government. Do
YOU expect him TO act upon that
assumption? Ask yourselves whether
you have any apprehension that he will
appoint Republican Postmaster in Rich
moud?-or Republican United States
District Attorney for this Federal dis
trict?-or Republican Collector of In
ternal Revenue or Customs-Dues! Is 1t
not everybody's expectation that good,
sound Democrats will DO put into possess
sion of all the Federal Offices in Virginia?
And is not this reasonable expectation in
view of the policy carried out by Mr..
CLEVELAND when he was President before =!

The Cabinet Confirmed.

The Senate yesterday confirmed Mr..
CIxyxLAxp's Cabinet appointments and
the new administration Is. therefore. now
IN working order.
The consideration OF these nominees
took place in executive session-that rs TO
say. In secret sessi on and whether any OBJ
lection was made to any one on tho Inst IS
not yet known to the public; but as the
session was quite brief one che propa-
bilty rs that no opposition was mani
tested.
II is usually conceded that the President
ought to have the widest possible range in
selecting his family OF advisers, and the
Sepate's approval is but little more than q
matter Of form. Mr.. CARLISLE felt 30 sure
of his position that he resigned dis. place
in the Senate weeks ago. but the news OF
the resignation of Mr.. GRESHAM as Judge
comes 10 MS with the announcement OF his
confirmation as Secretary Of State.

Mr.. MORRILL,. United States senator
from Vermont. is 80 years old, but still
with his natural force undated" He
is looked upon as having lived very long
life. and yet many Of the same persons
who thus look upon him are ready to
credit all sorts Of unfounded stories as to
centenariaDs. Suppose Mr.. MoRRILr
should live seventeen years longer. But
nobody will believe that he can become a
centenarian. Why not? A true record OF
his age is in existence.

The people will be with Senator SHER-
MAN in his effort to change Inauguration
Day from March 4th to April 30th. The
weather in March is too clustering and uu-
reliable for such pageentry as We all like
to see at the installation of rev Presi-
dent, and if no serious objections to the
change can be raised by the lawyers it
ought to DO made. 1t would be even bet
ter to have the inauguration III May than
In April.
It will be noticed. OF course, that Mr..
SuERMAS's proposition, if adopted, would
give Mr.. CLEVELAND an extension of his
term somewhat beyond four years.
