REFoRMER cLRvFLANp.

Civil service reform has been assas-
sinated in the house of its supposed
friends. It's prophet has not only en-
couraged his subordinates in the most
fragrant violations of its principles but
has himself INDUCED in a most intense
Iy partisan address before the stu
dents of Princeton college.
Mingled with an utter disregard OF
that principle which forbids the active
participation in partisan politics, by
federal office holders, in cases where
those Office holders have been engaged
in upholding the policy of the admin
istration and at the same time con
niving at the success OF the opposition
party, has been the retirement from
Office OF those who publicly voiced
their support of the candidates nomi-
mated by the party in power in cases
where they could not be inundated
into silence.
1t is one more example added to
the many evidences of insincerity on
the part of the president Unfortunately
Mr.. CIeveland's course must go far to
ward silencing criticism of the civil
service plank in the Chicago platform
That plank at the time Of its adoption
was regarded by many as indicating
a disposition to take a step backward
but no civil service rules at all are
better than a system which is used
for attaining partisan ends.
1t was using the official patronage
for partisan purposes that gave rise
to the agitation for reform.

BULLETS DEFLECTED.
Magnets to be Used to Turn Messen-
gers of Death.


gers of Death.
New York. Oct. 2S-Experiments made
by two electrical engineers last year
with two cannons on the Jersey coast
have suggested a scheme for shielding
men and ships in battle Wire coiled
around the cannon was connected with
a powerful dynamo and the huge weap-
ons were converted into magnets Of the
greatest force.
The drawing power Of these magnets
overcame the gravity of cannon balls
and smaller objects of iron and steel
coming within their range We're drawn
to them with such force that the auth
critics was surprised at the unexpected
power developed.
Very recently experiments show that
when the electro-naagnets are located in
the neighborhoOd of targets used in
Dracticing with modern army rifles the
course of the bullets is changed, 50 that
the craftsmanship Of the rifiemen
counts for little or nothing
IA powerful electro magnet placed

WHY REFoRMs ARE SLOW.

Dean Farrar says in a recent essay
entitled can We BE Prophets"
The mass of mankind live the aver
age life, are easy-going. conventional.
traditional, commonplace. They do
what others dc; say what others say;
they do not either think or act for
themselves: any shibboleth does for
them. so that it is current; any soph-
ism suhdces them, so it be accepted;
they are but echoes; they pair of. as
one has said, in insane parties, and be-
cause they ignore the deep realities Of
morals and religion. they dislike to
have their sand-built houses shaken,
or their sluggish ease disturbed. 1t is
almost incredible how hostile mankind
has been to its greatest men. Scarcely
ever has there been a great soul uttering
truth but there has been the shadow Of
Cavalry 1t is because a majority do
not like trouble, and to face new truths
is a trouble However much they may
be told that there is no such word as
mumpimus. stin. like the old Catholic
priest. they viii refuse to change it for
the right but unfamiliar sumpsimus.
And that is why the world poisons Soc
rates. who bids it think out its own
philosophy. and burns those who bid
it amend its false religion. Majorities
are constantly in the wrong When
Phocion heard the multitude applaud
his speech, he turned round in sur
prise and asked. Have I said anything
wrong. then?'' Always" as Goethe
said. 1T is the individual who works
for progress, not the age The ages
have always been the same
