AGAINST CIVIL SERVICE RE
FORM.

The Democratic convention which
nominated Mr.. Bryan for the presi-
dency did so many eccentric things
that the public has hardly had time
to consider them ALL One of the
most important of these is the dec
laration which the platform makes
against civil service reform. The
words read:
1--WE are opposed to life tenure in
the public service. We favor APP
pointments based upon merit, fixed
terms of office, and such an admins
tration of the civil service laws as
viii afford equal opportunities to all
citizens of ascertained fitness
The "ascertained fitness" undoubt-
edly means political falthfulness and
an ability to corral votes.
The demand for civil service re
form has been pressed since the adj
minIstration of President Hayes, who
manifested an earnest desire to ex.
tend the beneficent scope of its work
ings. Through succeeding admins
trations the number of employees
placed Under the civil service law
has been steadily increased. but a
few months ago an order being is
=sued by President Cleveland placing
10000 government employees beyond
reach of partisan dismissals. Pres
idents Hayes, Garfield, Arthur, Cleve-
land and HARRISON continuously
expressed themselves in favor of this
reform, and 1t waits for the beard
less Mr.. Bryan to declare in Delphie
language: They complain about
the plank which declares against the
life tenure in office. What we op-
pose in that plank is the life tenure
that is being built up in Washington
which excludes from participation ii
the benefits the humber members OIL
our society" Another of his indefi
mite. inconcise phrasings.

which already has been made by re-
cent administrations resulting in in
creased ability in the conduct of
public routine, has shown that the

national government, where no views

Mr.. Bryan's idea is that every de-
partment clerk in Washington should
loose his place as the head of the adj
ministration changes. Such a views
belongs rather to the peanut politi-
elan than to an intelligent statesman.

HUNTSVILLE.

Got the Election Returns by the Long
 Distance Telephone
 Huntsville, Nov. 6.-(Special Corre- spondence.)-The election news Tuesday and Wednesday and last night was heard and read by an immense crowd in front of the local and long distance telephone exchange.
 The people-Bryan's share of them were feeling pretty blue over the returns received the night before indicating re- publican victory when the Bryan returns began to be given out by the long dis tance line. The first news of the morn ing was heard by about a dozen. The character of information becoming evil dent, the street was blockaded within a few minutes. Traffic on this street was suspended. Bulletin after bulletin sent out from Texas, Missouri, Nebraska and other western states favorable to Bryan were read in quick succession and the en- thusiaSm became intense. The charge was frequently made that the bulletin had been colored by democratic hands, but this was ridiculous. And the Bryan ties shouted on.
 At an early hour last night the street in front of the telephone exchange was a solid mass of humanity down to the opera house.
 After dark the bulletins as they were received were written upon stereopticon plates and flashed upon canvass screen suspended above the crowd. The inStru- ment worked very satisfactorily and no difficulty was experienced in reading the bulletin.
 The Long Distance Telephone company has the thanks of the entire community for its generosity in keeping the people posted on the situation.
