THE SIAM AGREEMENT.

The Importance of the agreement
with France regarding Siam, previous
ly alluded to, is insisted upon, in view
of the fact that it is said to have SET
tied a question which might at one
time have led to serious differences
between Great Britain and France.
Moreover, it is stated that two other
causes for dissension have been re-
moved by the same agreement. one
being the result Of renewal of the
British treaty Of commerce with the
United States, and the other being
based upon the arrangement of a
mixed commission which will immedi-
ately proceed to fix the boundary be-
tween the English and French pos
sessions in the Niger basin The set
tlement of the latter question no doubt
Will do much to remove the bad blood
which has existed for some time past
between France and Great Britain.
as it will disarm the Chauvinist French
colonial party who used it to Shrek
against Great Britain. But regarding
the Siamese settlement itself France
seems to have secured the lions share.
Her sphere of influence extends from
Tonkin and Cambodia to the water
shed of the Mekong, thus including
the rich provinces of Battembang.
Angkor and Port Chantabom. Great
Britain extends her sphere of influence
10 the olainese part OF the Malay pen
insula, lying between Lower Burmah
and the Straits settlements. Thus
her Indian empire will extend min
terruptedly from BeIuchistan to Sing
apore. Great Britain, however. with
draws from the region north of the
Mekong, which will go to France. This
latter point is the most difficult for
Englishmen to swallow, as it means
the withdrawal Of a British post.
Luckily, the Marquis Of Salisbury, and
not Lord Rosehery, negotiated the
matter, or it would be greeted by
torrent of denunciations from the lin

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The state

WAsHiNGTON, Jan. 1S-The an
nouncement Of the appointment of Gen.
Ealeriano Weyler as civil captain GEN
eral OF Cuba was received at Cuban
headquarters here as confrmatorv of
the view they had already expressed
upon the news OF Campos' retirement
that there has been a radical chanoa
in the policy OF the Spanish cabinet
and that henceforth there Is TO he q
reign of blood and terror In Cuba.
The change in the cabinet itself in the
retirement OF the Duke OF Tetuan. and
the succession of Senor Elbuayen as
minister OF foreign affairs is regarded
as sun further confirming this idea.
Gen Weyler is veteran soldier, and
mas had his own experience in revolu-
tons, for he followed the fortunes of
the Spanish army IN Cuba for years
during the last revolution with the
rank of colonel, and earned for him
self a dreadful reputation as a man OF
blood and iron. Moreover the Cuban
leaders here hint at acts of cruelty to
women and defenSeless prisoners i'm
his past, in a fashion that augurs i'll
FOR the rebels who come within his
power this time, and they predict that
he will soon become involved in trou-
bic with the United States government
as the result of the ill-treatment Of
American citizens who may be unfort-
innate enough to fall under suspicion.
Gen. Weyler quilted Cuba coon after
the suppression of the last rebellion.
and has since lived in Spain, holding
the important command of captain genc
eral of the province of Catalonia.

Civil Service Reform.

Following closely upon the heels of
President Cievelands efforts to make
the patronage OF his administration
serve his purpose, whatever that may
be, in the next Democratic national
convention, comes his executive order
bringing under the civil service rules
and the merit system the greater part
of all the offices hitherto exempted
from those regulations. OF course it
goes without the saying that these
same offices have been nearly all filled
with Democratic appointments prior
to the issuing of this order. Neverthe-
less, we believe in the principle upon
which this act is supposed to be based
and hope that good to the service will
result from this late step by the Pres
ident. 1t will be better for both public
men and for their constituents to have
the clerical force of the government
selected and managed, so far as pos
sible, upon business methods. 1t is
apparent, though, that in order tc

We do not believe in looking abroad

doors. But Armenia has claim upon
us. We have unquestioningly ex-
pended many hundreds of thousands
of dollars to carry our religion into
their communities. We have sent self
sacrificing men and women to make
their life work in that distant country
By doing so we have called down upon
the heads of that people in not in
considerable degree the undying ha-
tired of the Moslem fanatic. We can
not avoid the conclusion that to a GER
tain degree we are at least indirectly
responsible for the suffering which Ar

Russia. have played politics with the

contributions should be large. it is
necessary, if we are to deserve the
name of being charitably disposed
that we should give something.

| President Cleveland has issued or
ders commanding his appointees to re-
frain from partisan activity. If he is
sued those with the intention of hav-
ing them obeyed his mind has changed
since then. Those who know him
pretty thoroughly are convinced that
if he could use the immense patronage
of the administration to make him a
candidate for a third term Of the pres
idency he would not scruple to do it
and everybody knows that he has in
terfered with local elections in every
state where such interference had any
thing to offer by way of advantage
and done so by use of patronage en-
ploying the very officials he had pre-
viously forbidden to take active part
in political manipulations. Ii may be
that President Cleveland is an earnest
believer in civil service reform. 1t is
painfully evident. however, that what
ever his convictions he has not lived
up to them; in brief has fallen as far
short of them as almost any President
this country has had. We hope these
newly applied regulations will be
rightfully observed by all the officials
who have just been brought under
them, and by those who have the re-
sponsibility of enforcing them, but we
think it would be very grave mis-
take for those who believe in civil SER
vice reform in the abstract not to keep
a very sharp watch over civil service
reform in the concrete, none the less
vigilant in Mr. Cleveland's administra-
ton than in others.
