10 RESTORE THE SPOILS SYSTEM
While giving paramount consideration
to the danger TO the financial and bust
ness interests of the country that would
be involved in the success of the popo-
cratic party. ii is well To remember that
there are other. if minor, evils which
would result from n victory of that
party. Not the least of these would
be the complete or partial Abandonment
! of civil service reform and the restora-
ton of the spoils system which WAS
the bane of our politics for so many
years. The Chicago platform declares
distinctly against the policy of civil
service reform and while it does not, of
| course, pronounce for n return to the
spoils system, its declaration can have
no other meaning than this. Mr.. Bryan
is in full accord with this plank of the
platform. He endorsed ii in his speech
to the Chicago convention and he APP
proved it in his letter of acceptance.
If elected president Mr.. Bryan would
mt once make such modification of the
civil service regulations in obedience To
the demand of the platform. as would
enable him to fill the public Offices with
his partisans. AS pointed out in an adj
| dress to the voters OF the country by the
National Civil Service Reform League,
no new legislation is necessary to ac-
complish this result. The mere elec-
ton of il president who will modify the
civil service rules will restore the spoilS
system as 1t existed during the worst
periods of our political history, with
its evils greatly multiplied. owing to the
growth and complexity of the govern
ment service. 1t is thus in the power
of the president to overthrow the whole
system If he so wills and when one con
templates the tremendous pressure
which wodld be brought upon Mr.. Bryan
for Il distribution of the spells of Office
there can be no doubt that long before
the close of his term there would moi
be n vestige of civil service rules re-
naming.
return to the spoils system would
mean utter decentralization of the public
service. As the league address says, the
merit system is the product of gen
Grafton of progress. 1t was instituted
| against formidable opposition and has
gone forward slowly aud steadily until
1t now covers nearly the entire public
service. Its operation has been highly
satisfactory. 1t has conduced to greater
efficiency in the work of every depart
ment of the government, because EN-
| ployes of the government know that
their tenure does not depend upon their
politics, but upon the way in which
they perform their duties. Men who
are capable and faithful can count upon
permanence in their positions, regard
less of their political views; those who
do not meet these requirements cannot

MacColl for governor OF Nebraska APP
pcals directly 10 the sympathy of mon
who believe in republican principles AMI
in republican policies. Mr.. MacColl
has been an answering republican,
whose career entities him to the conf
dcncc and support OF every member Of
his party. He has moreover, n claim
to the support of all classes of our citi
zens by reason of his pioneer life and
services rendered during a quarter Of a
century in helping to develop the mate
rial resources of the state ana the pro
motion of every enterprise calculated to
bring prosperity to its citizens.
The popularity of Jack MacColl Is Mt
tested by the fact that he has twice
been endorsed for the highest position
within the gift of the party by the re-
publicans Of Omaha and Douglas county.

of the Missouri. Modest and unaSsum-

NATURE DALxs A CONSPIRACY.

New York World: Wheat has advanced 16
cents bushel in New York since Mr.. Bryan
was nominated and silver has declined In
the same time about IA cents an ounce.
These facts do not agree with popuistlc
theories-but so much the worse for the
theories.
Buffalo Express: Silver bullion has
relched the lowest point 1t has touched in
the last eighteen months and wheat has
reached the highest. Chairman Jones has
asserted that the rise in wheat is due to
tho conviction that Bryan will be elected
What, then, explains the fall in silver?
Chicago Tribune: Nature has tried her
hand at free coinage TO the extent of add
ing about 5000 ,0OO 600 in good l00-cent dol
lars to the wealth % the producers. That
is what a little assurance that Bryan will
DO done for will do. Look out for the com

New York Tribune: More complete and
convincing demonstration of the falsty Of
silver theories could not be desired than
the course the market has been supplying
for some months past, While silver has
been steadily falling because OF the heavy
sales In foreign markets of bullion that was
held by mines and smelters and spectators
here, the price OF wheat has been rising very
remarkably for several weeks.

per bushel and silver sold at the lowest
point 1t has reached since the great de-

price was 64h cents per ounce, making the
silver dollar worth 1888 cents, or less than
half its stamped value.
