C.Vii Service Reform.

The doctrine of civil service reform
has never been better stated than in
the letter of Seth Low accepting the
independent nomination for mayor of
Greater New York. Mr. Low declares
that if elected the civil service laws
of the state shall be impartially en-
forced by such methods as will insure
a practicable and reasonable test of
fitness and the selection OF subordinate
officers on their merits, irrespective of
political influence, so as to afford a fair
chance to every citizen, without regard
TO race, religious belief or political af-
filation. 1t SHALL" he adds, 4" be my
endeavor to build up in all parts of
the public >service a spirit Of honest
pride, based upon the well-settled con-
viction on the part of every person in
the clty's employ, that so long as his
services are needed and he renders
them faithfully and we'll, no influence
in the city shall be able to turn him
out, while the moment he fails to do his
duty no influence shall be strong
enough to keep him in"
This represents the theory OF Mug
wumpery at its best. AS a theory
clearly nothing could be finer But is
1t practicable for Mr.. Low or anybody
else. in the mayors office or elsewhere,
to put such theory into practice? 4?
Are there any known methods different
from those already prevailing in poll
tics and business for insuring "a prac-
ticable and reasonable test of fitness?"
Certainly the mere examination of ap-
plicants in memory exercises consti-
tutes no such test. AS between two
men, one a youngster fresh from col
lege, with head full of formulae, theor-
ems and figures such as would cause
him to show up strong at a civil service
examination, and the other a less cru
dite veteran whose degree has been
earned in the hurly burly school of
experience, and who knows men and
human nature IL he does not know
books, IL would be the veriest twaddle
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-09-16
Playing with Fire.

The editor of the Wilkes Barre News
Dealer aflirms that he has no apologies
to make for trying to utilize the Latti-
mer turmoil as a partisan wapon of
attack upon the Republican party.
Such demagogism he asserts to be per
fectly legitimate in political warfare"
1t may seem to be to him; but we ques-
tion whether his view of the matter
will receive the sober Endorsement of
the people. We should exceedingly dis
like to see a condition of affairs either
in Luzerne county or elsewhere where
in the matter of law-enforcement and
the preservation of the public peace
when menaced by riotous assemblies
should appear in the light of a party
issue, to be approved or abandoned ac-
ocrdingly as one or the other political
party received plurality OF the popu-
lar vote.
"If," says the News-Dealer in a weak
excuse, 'the circumstances were on the
other side the Republican organs would
be swift to turn them against the De-
mocracy." This we deny. When a
Democratic president sent troops to
Chicago TO put down the Debs insur-
rection that act had no warmer eulo-
gists than the so-called Republican
Organs" Party lines upon that criti-
cal occasion We're Immediately ignored
in view of the evident necessity of vim
dicating the supremacy Of the federal
government over those who were OBJ
structing its mails and virtually defy
ing its authority. In no subsequent re-
view that we have seen in any Repub-
lican newspaper of the official career
of Grover Cleveland has his attitude
upon that occasion been charged
against him. If the sheriff Of Luzerne
county had been Democrat we should
have modified no word of comment
made in these columns upon his course
W hen existing excitement in connec-
ton with the HazletOn strike shall
have subsided the truth will press
home to every law-abidng citizen of
the anthracite region that only misfor-
tune can follow lawlessness, and that
nothing worthy of gaining can be
gained by paying attention to those
politicians who bid for votes by appeal
ing to prejudice and passion. The
party which courts the support of those
who oppose law and order need not
expect to retain the support of those
who believe that law and order should
be supreme.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-09-16

to say, as the civil service reformers
pretend TO believe, that the formers
fitness for a responsible executive trust
would exceed the latter's. Such a
statement would simply laugh at facts.
Again, the method Of selecting assist
ants in office by school room examina-
tlons leaves utterly out of account the
fundamental question of character OF
two men soliciting appointment in the
public service one may be an intellec-
tual phenomenon and yet a villain and
sneak. The present scheme known
as civil s,rviceNreform gives him the
preference over the other, although the
latter may bring irreproachable Gre
dentials as to character, habits, and
tractable disposition. Whenever in
quiry is made by the appointing power
into the question of fitness other than
mental, the line of civil service reform
Is overstepped and occasion is given
fos a Mugwump cry of partialty and
favoritism.
A last consideration condemns the
Low idea more emphatically than eth
er of these others. If Mr.. Low were
made manager of large business con-
cern he would not delegate to any
independent commission the sitting OF
the applications for employment, but
would either attend to this himself or
remit the matter to the heads of the
different departments, holding them in
dividually responsible. That would be
the so-callsd spoils system, pure and
simple. 1t would proceed on the as
sumption that those who put him in a
place of power considered him qualified
to use the power thereof until he should
receive notification to the contrary;
and in using it he would naturally
try to secure the best results possible.
He would do this in the first place
because it would be his duty to, and
secondly because by so doing he would
recommend himself to the favor of the
concern for whom he was working.
If in politics men with power abuse
it, the thing to do is to call them to
account, not say that they must not
have a free hand to show the quality
which is in them.

The First Duty.
rom the Easton Argus.

From the Easton Argus.
In situation where law, acting through
its regular agents, has come into conflict
with n body of citizens, 1t is the first
duty OF law-abiding men to side with and
support the law, by word and deed, re-
gardless Of the legal and moral issues
which may arise out ~ the conflict. All
sensible workingmen regret open conflicts
between strikers and the officers of the
law. There is absolutely nothing to be
gained by them, and the almost newt
able sacrifices of human life, no matter
on which side the right may lie, makes
them deplorable in every way. Besides,
there is, we are glad to say, an over
shadowing sentiment whicn does and will
uphold the law whenever II is assalled.
If this means anything, II means that It
Is Infinitely the wiser course always to
seek Justice at the bars of our courts
and at the ballot boxes.

PROGRESS IN RUSSIA.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
1t is a most interesting man, one yet
under thirty years of age, who now sits
upon the throne of the Romanoffs. There
are reports that he has plans for the
broadening of the political institutions of
Russia. We have had news within a week
from St. Petersburg that he has ap-
pointed a special commission to provide
for the Introduction into Russia of a
system of universal and compulsory edu-
cation. With new things sucn as these,
with the Franco-Russian alliance, with
the extension of Russian power in East
ern Asia, with the Trans-Siberian rail-
road. with the growth of Russian indus
tries, commerce and shipping, great in
deed is the advance of Russia in our
times. Life to Russia! always our friend.

The suggestion of the Altoona
Tribune, reproduced in another column.
that whatever the grievances are
which the factionists of the Republican
~party in Pennsylvania are aching to
air. they be held over until next year
and united support be given in the
meantime to the excellent state and
county tickets is sensible and timely.
Regard for the interests of the par
ty as a whole should be called for
ward into greater prominence than it
has assumed in the belligerent and
pCrtentous developments Of the past
fortnight

Invited Their Fate.
From the Providence Journal.

When mob of rioters finally come to
grief under the shots of sheriffs or mill
tia, we may lament the horror of the
scene, but there is no need to work our
selves into a frenzy of protest against
the invasion of private rights and the
denial of the privilege of public assem-
bling. The unhappy men who now lie
dead or injured may or may not have
deserved their fate, but they certainly
invited it. Their lawless conduct had to
be stopped and 1t has been stopped. That
much must be set down to the credit of
the sheriff and his deputies. These Of
ficers have discharged their duty. They
were sent out to prevent the rioters from
committing violence and to restore order;
they have done so, Whether the terrible
method they finally resorted to was JUS
titled in the circumstances, or whether
in resorting to 1t they became more law
less than the strikers themselves, Is a
question that can better be answered
when the passions of the moment have
cooled and an impartial Investigation of
all the facts can be made.

Final Echoes OF
Llzerne's Tragedy
The Law supreme.
From the Philadelphia Press.


The sheriff has broad powers at COM
mon law born in more turbulent times
which are often forgotten but which none
the less exist in their old vlgor. He is
responsible for the peace and order of
the county 1t is as much his duty to
prevent riot as 1t Is to suppress 1t. Sub
ject TO an appeal to the law by civil suit
or criminal procedure after but not dur
ing the progress of his work, he enjoys
a wide discretion in the means needed to
keep the peace. If in his judgment the
presence and parade of many hundreds
of armed, organized men is likely to lead
TO a breach of the peace he has a right
to prohibit their march for exactly the
same reason that in time of disorder
policeman has right to order men to
move on and to break up crowds and
throngs likely to lead to disorder or to
develop into riot. When organized re-
sistance to the law appears 1t must never
be forgotten that the law and its officers
possess ample powers for enforcing the
law and restoring order, and those who
quibble over the precise means used need
to learn that the law itself is resolute,
comprehensive and all-embracing in the
powers it grants to crush all organized
disobedience, be the cost what 1t may.

The legal point having arisen in
Philadelphia whether a pedestrian or
a driver at a street crossing has the
right of way, the city solicitor of Phila-
delphia after canvassing the decisions
of court upon the subject advises the
director of public safety that neither
has an exclusive right of way, but that
each must use due and proper pre-
caution to prevent accident and guard
from injury. This does not mean, how
ever, that the driver should emulate a
cyclone or that the wheelman should
try to smash records = st crossings
which pedestrians frequent.

From the Troy Times.
Whoever enters upon a breach of the
statutes takes upon himself the legal
consequences of his act, and absolves the
law and its officers from responsibility
for the result. 1t Is not necessary even
that the sheriff's posse should prove
danger to the lives of it's members. II
danger to life were the only excuse for
the firing the answer would be that the
sheriffs men could have found safety in
running away. But the arms were put
into their hands not to defend themselves
but for the defense of the law, and II to
enforce the law and protect its wards,
whether in property or person, 1t became
necessary to shoot, that shooting was a
duty independent of the consideration OF
personal safety for the sheriff's men or
their opponents.

In the more immediate excitement
arising from the Lattimer tragedy sight
has been almost lost Of the fact that
the two months strike in the bitumin-
Gus region is now practically adjusted
on the basis of an honorable compro-
mise. In consequence 100000 men will
soon resume work at living wages and
a great impetus be given to the gener-
al prosperity. The success of this
greatest strike in the history of labor
movements in America teaches that
workingmcn in cooperation who have
a just cause and keep the peace are
inviucible.

Where 1t is necessary to protect life
and property from violence by violence,
the work should not be entrusted to the
cheapest available material among the
unemployed. Such work is the most
delicate that the complicated affairs of
any nation can necessitate. 1t requires
a skill, judgment, patience and tact that
can be acquired only by long training.
Every man engaged in 1t must feel the
responsibility of his position, and know
that he will be called to account for every
error and indiscretion.
