Generally speaking, nine pounds of

Every sign points to an exception

have sold their best dairy cows will
have abundant opportunity to re-
greet their action.
Too much care cannot be taken
that stock does not fall away at this
season OF the year. A COW that is
nearly dried TIP by neglect in the fall
will pay little ii any, dividends on
what she consumes during the win

The Washington County Hatchet

The Washington County Hatchet
is sending marked copies of its
issues all over the state. These
marked copies contain long, hysteri-
cal rhapsodies of Senator Mitchell,
and calls upon the Legislature to
organize at once and proceed to
re-elect the Honorable J. H. 1t
incidentally calls the Oregonian a
liar, and several other bad names,
all because that paper will not join
in its wild shrieks for action. The
Hatchet should take some soothing
syrup, or it may get too hot and
lose its edge. 1t should also re-
member that it is only one step
from the sublime to the ridiculous,
and it takes pretty fine mind to
judge which the following extract
from the Hatchet's highfown ar
ticle belongs: "Our states in
colossal order stand from the east,
where the star of liberty was first
heheld, unto the west where the
sunberms at the dying of the day
paint their sad imagery upon the
mighty gates to our peaceful ocean
states, From the north, where the
lakes are like mirrors unrolled, to
the southland, where the beautiful
summer is born, they stand in
awful grandeur dressed, proud of
their heritage ofgreat meu." 4
* = The refusal of the republi-
cans to ratify his (the editor of the
Oregonian) nefarious schemes and
purposes, coupled with an inter-
position of Divine Providence, may
avert the accomplishment of the
ruin of the republican party in the
state of Oregon. 1t is fortunate
that citizens of all political parties
have discovered that the editor of
The Oregonian is a creature bereft
of feelings Of that degree of shame
and that dread of retribution which
would ordinarily restrain a common
highwayman from open acts of re
proach alike to conscience and
public morality" And in spite of
all that, the Oregonian still lives.

The Vlctors and the Spoils.

66o, 900 votes were cast, and of the
7,o65, 900 who voted for the win
ming ticket probably a million have
hopes, more or less defined. of get
ting Offices under the new admins
tration.
At the lowest calculation these
office-seekers will number hundreds
of thousands, and the worst of il is
that they do not realize that, with
very few exceptions, their strivings
and their efforts will be more than
wasted, for not one in hundred of
them will get place.
1t is curious to find that the
people generally have yet to recog-
nize the quiet but almost complete
extension of the civil-service law,
and have yet to know that, not
satisfied with what has been done,
the friends ofthe civil-service move
ment are already preparing legis-
lation that will absolutely Danish
spoils from every department Of the
government except the legislative,
this exception affecting only the
nine hundred employees ofcongress.
Civil-service reform began with
Grant, although it was not made
practical in its early stages. The
movement struggled along until
1883, when the first civil-service
commission was appointed. Presi-
dent Arthur made the question
vital issue, and was the first 10
fully establish it. Cleveland fol-
lowed in his footsteps, and under
Harrison and the able members of
his cabinet the merit system be-
came fact in this government.
In these thirteen years revolu-
ton has been accomplished. The
figures are most astonishing. All
officers appointed "by and with the
consent of the senate" are exempt
from the operations of the civil
service laws, and these, in fact,
constitute about the only spoils to
which the victors may turn. The
civil-service commissioners in a
statement made since the election,
assert that there are at present in
the departmental service of the
United States eighty-five thousand
employees, and of these only seven
hundred and eighty-one are exempt
from the civil-service laws, nearly
all of those exemptions being con-
fidential or personal in their nature,
such, for instance, as private secre-
taries. Under the old system the
new secretary of the treasury in
McKinley's cabinet would have the
distribution of something like forty
thousand Offices, but under civil
service he will have exactly two
appointments, his confidentia sec
retary and one other. Within
three years President Clevelaud's
orders have brought forty-two
thousand Offices under the civil
service laws.
Not content with this. it is now
announced from Washington that
an effort will be made to appoint
the collectors and postmasters, like
the federal judges, during good be-
havior, and if this should be done
it would make the merit system
practically universal.
The only opportunities for the
spoilsmen now are in the foreign
service, but even here civil service
has begun its work, because Presi-
dent Cleveland not very long ago
promulgated new regulations pro-
viding that in all consular positions
paying from one thousand to
twenty-five hundred dollars there
should be examination before ap-

M'GURL's FLTMsY PLEA.
Convicted of Stealing fEae Bank Id
nnNft which Naa Said HAa last

posit which Ese said HE Lost.
John McGurl was tried in the General
Sessions Court his morning fer embez-
element. He pleaded guilty a week ago,
but. when he was called for sentence, he
said that he did not steal the money, he
lost it. Judge Hudspeth ordered the plea
OF guilty withdrawn and warned McGurl
that if he was convicted on trial it would
go hard with him for lying.
James Connolly, a ~saloonkeeper at No.
$40 Barrow street, testified tha McGurl
did odd jobs for him around the place.
On April so he sent the defendant to the
bank to deposit ST.. McGurl never came
back. Connolly received the bank book
by mail the next morning with the de-
post slip in it. About ten days a~fterward
he located McGurl and had him arrested
He had heard from McGurl in the mean
time, however. through mutual acquain-
tances, McGurl sending word that he
would shoe Connolly If he bothered him.
He also sent word that it was only a
breach of trust nyway and nothing
could be done to him.
McGurl, in his own defence, insisted
that he lost the money. He took it out
OF the book and put 1t In his trousers
pocket, and when he got near the bank
i was gone. He did not return and tell
Connolly about it because he was afraid
told Prosecutor Winfield that he bought
q new suit OF clothes he had on with
5000 he had earned working longshore
for three days. He was convicted.
