Reform In the civil service must &c
on From President McKtniey's HnRu'
Eural Address.
This utieranrc OF the new President
will not greatly encourage those who look
for general upsettinE OF the civil scr
vtre law. As the fnteiEenccr has ms.
sursd its readers from time 10 time, there
will be no backward step under Presidcn;
McKinley's guidance.
Hc committed to progressive
reform in the civil service. This, as he
remInd5 the country In his address, was
his position as member of Congress
and is his position now as President
At the same time he insists that reform
In the civil service must be genuine, and
It may be inferred from the uttcrance in
his inaugural address that so far as nc
can contribute to that end there is to be
sar,e reform Of the recent reform"
Thrus;Ing men into the public service
merely because they vote certain
ticket, taking into no consideration their
fitness for the work they are to perform,
and then throwing about them the ample
mantle Of the civil service law, is not a
first class article of civil service reform.
This the country has seen. and this must
have made its impression on President
Mckinley.
What reform in the reform" the Pres
ident may have In mind remains for him
to reveal. He does not seem satisfied
with the peculiar progress civil service
reform has been making. and 1t Is very
much to his credit to give Congress and
the country to understand this.

Governor AtkInson aud Corporations.
Nothing in the excellent inaugural ad-
dress Of Governor Atkinson does him
more credit than his utteganoe In respect
of corporations. In these days 1t. is the
fashion to try to conc!liate the public
favor by denouncinE corporations as al
ways bad. nc matter for what purpose
they may be formse or how they may he
conducted.
1; requires courGga as Wen as high
conception az she welfare al the people
for public man to speak as Governor
Atkinson has spoken. He gives It to he
understood a, the beginning OF his ad-
ADMINISTRATION that he has no sympathy
with indiscrimiuats assaults on capital
in the corporate form; that he apprc-
ciates the power for good Of the corpora
lions properly conducted: and that he
realizes that West Virginia depends for
her development to a very great degree
on these useful artificial PRISONS.
Governor Atkinson knows business
and West Virginia well enough to know
that tho work OF railroad building. Of
,imbering and mining on large scale,
and the like, Will not be undertaken un-
less it be undertaken by capital In ag-
Eregate form, and he knows that the per-
sons ownlug this capital will Incorporate
themselves for the work or they Will have
nothing to do with 1t.
West Virginia wants capital and vel
comes Incorporated capital, and the new
governor gives notice that so far m he is
concerned capital coming In this form to
aid In the development OF the state shall
he we'll treated. The governor voices the
sentiment OF the people. In West Vir-
glnla there Is no hostility TO corporations.
They are well treated and all that is
aswed IN return Is tina, the corporations
treat West Virginia we'll.
The record Of the state shows that in no
commonwealth in the Union is foreign
capital surer Of fair treatment than In
West Virginia. This has been SO in the
past, and will continue to he 50. The
public policy of the state Is in line with
the feeling OF the people.
