.:vaiuable testimony"

Rev. DR.. Hepworth, who has been
endeavoring to find something con-
corning the cause of the Armenian
massacres that no one else had been
able to discover appears to have over
looked the excellent warning against
knowing many things that aren't so.
In his reports to the paper he is work.
ing for he included the statements he
said were made to him at Trebizond
by "a prominent individuar to the
effect that the slaughter was started
by two reckless, revolutionary Ar
menians, who two or three days after
the affair at the Ottoman Bank fired
on a prominent Turkish official. Dr..
IIepworth labels this valuable testi-
mony." The missionary Herald
takes a different view of the value of
that testimony and gives the following
reasons for doing so:
How valuable this testimony is, and
how thorough the acquaintance shown
with the facts, will be understood when
it is remembered that what is here pre-
scented as the cause of the outbreak at
Trebizond happened ten months after
that outbreak. The Ottoman Bank
episode at Constantinople' occurred
August 26, 1896. while the Trebizond
massacre occurred October s, 1895. Dr.
Hepworth has been imposed upon by a
statement which is as absurd as it
would be to say that the uprising of
the South in 1861 was caused by the
battle of Gettysburg

VOICES OF THE PRESS.
The Commission Should Be above Suspicion.
(Mail and Express.)

Such criticisms of the present conduct
of the civil service as are uttered by Pen
sion Commissioner Evans do not apply
to the principle but to the practice of civ
il service reform. When President CleNe-
land issued his sweeping order. extend
ing to $1,000 offices. which he had previ-
ously filled with his friends, the protec-
ton of the classified service. the real
friends of reform in the government de-
partments recognized that he mad done
that cause an injury while posing as it's
friend His selfish and partisan perver-
sion of the law is the underlying cause
of all the attacks. in Congress and out.
from which it now suffers. If it is true.
as Col. Evans says that the civil service
commission is itself controlled by pOliti-
cal influences and uses it's power to re-
tain in office clerks who are useless. it is
high time tnat that body received some
drastic treatment. The commission
should be as pure and above suspicion
as a judicial court The current discus
sion of abuses of the civil service law is
healthy in so far as it will serve to guide
the President in those changes in claSSi-
fcation which he proposes. But the law
itself rests upon sound principle and
commands popular approval.
