Where is the commercial organization
elsewhere, the chamber Of commerce or the
merchants exchange or other body of sim
liar character, that ever went out Of its
way to pass resolutions laudatory of civil
service reform or to urge its extension
upon the public authorities?
Does the Board of Trade of Washington
covet the unenviable distinction of being
whole country to perpetrate such an
extraordinary piece of folly?
The Washington Post.
Well, here are some resolutions passed by
the Philadelphia Board Of Trade that seem
to be rather laudatory of civil service
reform:
PHILADELPHIA, March 18th, 1898.
To the Honorable the Senate and House Of
Representatives of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania.
Whereas. To serve the state in the civil
service is an honorable ambition and
worthy of encouragement, and
Whereas. Appointments to and tenure Of
office based upon fitness and worth tend to
elevate, purify and increase the efficiency
of the civil service by attracting to the
service of the state better class of men
who desire to make 1T their life work;
therefore,
Resolved. That the Philadelphia Board Of
Trade views with approval the efforts Of
the Civil Service Reform Association to
improve the conditions relative to the ap-
pointment and retention in office of faithful
civil officers of the state; and further
Resolved, That the Philadelphia Board
of Trade indorses the bill now before the
legislature, entitled IAN act to regulate
and improve the civil service of the COM
monwealth and the cities, boroughs and
counties thereof" and urges the enactment
Of said act into law.
Resolved, That a copy of the foregoing
preambles and resolutions be sent TO the
Governor, the Senate and House, and also
to each member Of the Legislature from
Philadelphia.
True Copy:
FREDERICK FRALEY,
President Philadelphia Board of Trade.
Attest:
w. r. TUCKER, Secretary.

Some of those people who have wondered
why it is that ship of war never beats the
record 1t made upon it's trial trip while
ocean steamers always move more swiftly
after they have been some time in service
than they do during the earlier voyages,
will find a solution of the problem in the
statement made by Charles II. Cramp, the
shipbuilder. Mr.. Cramp says that when a
government vessel is tested for speed. just
before acceptance, its engines are opera ted
by men who have attained the greatest
possible skill, the fires are fed with the
best quality of coal, trustworthy men are
posted in the vicinity of all the principal
bearings to see that there Is no lack of
lubricant. and in every possible way adj
vantage Is taken Of any condition that
promises an increase of speed But after
the trial trip Is over, there are no more

picked men nor is there any special care as
to fuel or as to the working Of the en-
gines; in fact the latter frequently go for
months without any pretense at overhaul
ing. The big Atlantic liners are not so
treated; at each of their terminal ports are
engineers whose business it is to go COM
pletely through the mechanical equipment
for the purpose of remedying any and all
defects that may have developed. In the
merchant service the most painstaking of
care is always apparent; in the navy-and
Congress is to blame for the discreditable
fact-there is much of carelessness that
cannot be avoided so long as the appropria-
tive legislators are given to parsimony.

Slowly the sense of propriety Is making
Roadway with public officials in the mat
ter of accepting or rather refusing favors
from corporations. Justice johnson, Of the
Kansas Supreme Court, who was reelected
at the last election for term of six years,
has recently returned his railway passes,
and announces that he will accept nothing
of the kind in future. This is an example
that might well be followed by members
of the judiciary everywhere. Then, when
the bench is purged of that stigma, perhaps
Ii may dawn upon the mind of members
of Congress and of other legislative bodies
that the soliciting or even the acceptance
of a railway pass is at once an offense
against morals, of which no self-respect-
Ing law-maker ought to be guilty, and a
badge OF servitude that is both disgraceful
and debasing.

The Senators In whose careers political
defeat followed so closely on the heels of
financial successes have much to be thank
full for in the fact that they are members
Of Congress and rot New York policemen.
Outside of any social advantage attaching
to the position of member of Congress as
compared with that of policemen, there is
a difference in the styles Of investigation
which attach to THE two spheres of official
duty. The congressional investigation does
not make nearly the demands on the time
and energy of the star performer that the
police investigation does.

The mortality record of the brutal slug
ging matches called football by courtesy,
is opening up in fine style for the season.
In the Yale-Harvard game, at Springfield
on Saturday, one man had his collar bone
dislocated, and two or three others were
so severely hurt as to he of little service
the remainder Of the day, and probably for
the season. The same day young man at
Shreve. Ohio. was so badly injured in a
match being played there that he died In
two hours. How long will this sort Of thing
be tolerated?

for those special creations on the score Of

Just at this time when internal dissen-

fortunately managed to keep our racks and
cases fall. While on every hand prices
have taken a jump we have maintained ours
at the original markings. They shall not
be raised, we promise you, until the last
moment. The contrasts will be more marked
than ever In our favor. The praise of our
cOmmendable steadfastness to the "best for
the cheapest promise will be pitched on
higher key Of appreciation.

The Luyerne News says the Sin
dependent" convention for this legis-
lative district, when it is held, will
open the eyes of some republican ed
itors very wide. The News might
have gone farther and said the popu
lists eyes are wide open now, and
don't propose to be duped again as
they were four years ago. There are
number of pretty smooth demo
Gratis who are running things to suit
themselves, so far as the democratic
party is concerned, in this district,
but they are not slick enough to pull
wool over the populists' eyes as the
willy LaDue did four years ago. The
democratic party must stand on its
''merits" this year-which isn't very
good foundation and we don't wonder
at their great anxiety to seek saliva
ton through the ropulist vote. But
the populist winks the other eye, and
keeps up good thinking.

Him for Senator.
Woodstock, MINI.

.e Woodstock, MINI.
Editor Advance From an acquain-
lancet with Hon. Daniel Shell
for period of over
twenty one years, am free to state
that 1 know of no man in Mobiles
County, or in the Seventh Senatorial
DISTRICT, who is more able or better
qualified to represent this district than
he is. No matter what station he occu-
pies 81 what responsibility has been
entrusted to him, or what confidence
has orsmay be reposed in him, he will
never betray his trust nor forsake his
constituency. He will as readily ap-
ply himself to the humblest citizen
as ito the highest dig
nitary.i Should this district
choose him for it's standardbearer, l
have fho doubt of his election. He
would fill the senatorial chair with
honor;to himself, with dignity to the
senate and credit to his constituency.
Yours Truly,
FRED BLOOM.
