BUT QUINCY WAS A REFORMER.
Massachusetts, Civil Service Ideas are
all Right but Practice Is all Wrong.
Bv The Associated Press

WASHINGTON, Feb, 23.--Dr. Everett Of
Massachusetts, who has written much in
advocacy of civil service reform and
is one of the foremost men interested
in the cause, viii revive the
movement to have laborerssinlthe Govern
ment service placed under the civil service
laws. meeting OF the House committee
on reform i'm the civil service has been
called by Chairman DsForest for
next Monday, when Representative
Everett expects TO call up the bill, which
will be introduced by Representative
Andrews of Massachusetts in the Fifty
Second Congress. This bill is TO
authorize the extension of the system of
non partisan appointments requiring con-
firmation by the Senate. The civil
service act OF January 16, 1888 which
was practically the beginning of the
presnt system, give discretion to the
President TO make rules for the competl-
tive examination for Governmental appoint
ments, placing no limitations upon
his power 60 give the preference
TO war veterans, and excluding the officers
requiring confirmation and "any person
mere employed as a laborer or work
man."
Under the Andrews bill the last excep-
tion would be removed, and the President
could embrace the laborers in the
he saw fit. To enable him to
do this, however, it would be necessary
for Congress to appropriate more money
for the purpose OF supporting the
civil service commission, which has
rather inadequate provisions made for
carrying on the work. The number of
men who would have been placed in the
classified service 10y the Andrews bill in
1892 was nearly 22,o00, of which number
some 10000 are under the war department
and nearly 0,000 navy department rolls en-
gagged in the navy yards OF the country.
Representative Everett believes that the
system of appointments based on merit
should be extended so far rs possible to
all branches of the service.

Senate Transacted No Bust

GARvIN's NINE.HOUR BILLINHousE
Was Discussed by Democrats Who
Hope TO Catch the Labor Vote
Other Business Today.

The Democracy were late in constituting
a quorum this morning owing to late in
diligence in the Washingtons birthday
festivities. Speaker Owen was again
absent, being engaged in the Supreme
Court, and George T. Brown was again
elevated to the chair. Mayor Fearing of
Newport occupied seat at his right.
DIR. Garvin gave notice that at 2 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon in the House chamber
the committee on special legislation would
give public hearing on the factory in
spector bill and Representative McOsker
announced the public hearing by the
committee on education on the anti-vac-
cination bill at 12 o'clock tomorrow in
Representatives hall.
Representative McOsker presented the
petition of Michael Thompson and others
for an act to incorporate the Chrysanthe-
mum Social and Literary Club. OF Provi-
dence. Referred 70 the committee on
education.
Representative West introduced bill
in amendment of the charter of the
city of Providence, applying to the
counting of votes cast in city
elections by providing that the
ballots cast for wardens and clerks shall he
counted by the Board OF Aldermen rather
than by those officers as under the present
system. Referred TO the judiciary COM
mittee.
The Nine Hour Bill.
DIR. Garvin then called up his pet meas
ure, the nine-hour bill, which had been
made the special order at II 80 o'clock.
Representative McOsker was the first
speaker. He said that DIR. Garvin had
given ample evidence why the bill
should pass this Democratic House.
He reviewed the history of labor
legislation with which the Democracy
has been identified for the past three
years, thereby inviting the trust and con-
fidence of the PEOPLE. He con-
fined his remarks to the re-
cent strike on Smiths Hill which
he pronounced monstrous usurpation of
power by some one in arbitrarily extend
ing the hours of work from nine to ten.
He said that there was feeling of sadness
among those citizens who had been in
strumental i'm providing the employment.
Representative Mulholland said the
bill was reasonable in all of its provisions.
IL applied solely to women and minors.
He argued that what was wanted i'm
America was strong, healthy, and ro-
bust race. No system of labor should be in
operation which tends TO dwarf the
young, physically and intellectually.
Under the i0-hour law the manufacturers
operated their mills regularly and profit
ably, aud il seemed to him
that under 9-hour system
the manufactures conld be
run as profitably. He referred to the in
PRODUCTION OF machinery claimed to be
capable of doubling the production and
thus reducing the number OF wage earners.
He rose TO the defence ofthe minors under
16 and thought that the time might come
when the United States Government
would step in and regulate the hours OF
tabor. IL the act was passed
and IL was found that il
wrought injury upon the manufacturer,
the Legislature could promptly repeal IL.
