Republican Schemers After Office Prepas
ing Their Bill to Modify the Present Law.
Washington, December 1S.-The Re-
publican members Of tie House Who
are framing a bill to reform the civil
service law, have not yet got together
to draft their measure. Chairman
Hepburn, of the special committee
having the matter in charge, says he
expects the bill to be matured soon
after the holiday recess closes. Thus
far, however, he and his associates on
the special committee have not dis
cussed the form that the reform meas
ure is to take. Representative TaW-
ney, who is chairman OF the committee
to look UP evidence Of the maladminis-
tration Of the present law. is making
an elaborate collection Of the material
calculated to show defects in the law
and its enforcement. He Will supple
ment this with a careful review OF the
law in the case, the purpose being 20
show that the original law never con-
templated the wide application when
it is given, and that the powers eAeT-
cised by the civil service commission
are supported only by usage and not 1y
law. Mr. Tawney says the powers e&-
ercised by the commission have STOOD
merely because they were not contest
ed by any legal process which would
secure the strict adherence TO the law.

THE SALOON QUESTION.
Sistersville People Again Specializing

Actions Of the Recent Session Of

Special to the Register.
Sistersville, W. Va, December 49,
The one question that is now agitating
the minds of the people of this city is
what will be the outcome of the action
of the Circuit Court at the session
which has just ended in this county.
The saloon, or license question, is one
that has been bothering the people CT
there has been every effort made to set
tie it in some manner, but there always
las been an element which would not
work with those who desired to see
the matter settled the easiest and best
way, and as a result nothing has been
done and the places have been run
ming just the same as before any agi-
tation for license was made.
During the time the former judge of
the Circuit Court was on the bench
the maNer was let severely alone.
When any of the saloon men were in
dicted all they had to do was to pay
the fine usually assessed and that was
the end of the matter, but under the
present judge it is different, as quite
number of the saloon men who are now
in Jail at Middlebourne will testify.
Those who were before the court at
the last session were not only fined,
but were sent to Jail, and are there vet.
and will be there until they have served
the time for which they were sent
enced.
In the cases of one or two of the
saloon men they were assessed the
iusEallfi and told to close their places
up at once or they would also be put
in Jail. Judge Freer has given it out
that he will not be monkeyed with. and
has gone far enough to show that he
means just what he SAYS. Those who
are still in the business are on the anx-
Ious seat, as they 90 not know lust
what instructions the sheriff has re-
celved regarding their places, and the
indications are that early in the new
year all the saloons will be closed.
Those who are in the business have
made an honest effort to get license.
but the county court, which is compos-
ed of people living in the interior. and
who cannot understand the needs of
city the size of this, have refused to
grant license. and will not even order
an election to submit the question to
the people.
