A REMlNDER-
Civil Service Reform League
Warns the President
Not to CurtaiI the Scope of Civil
Service Rules.
ANY BACKWARD STEP
Will Be Resented by the People,
He is Told,
And Will Awaken Doubts as to
His Sincerity.
ANY BACKWARD STEP

washington, Nov. 1.-The civil SER
vice reform league has sent a letter to
the president expressing its hope that ne
will not. as reported in the public press,
withdraw a number of places now filed
by civil service methods, from the scope
of the civil service rules. The letter
says:
1.-The league submits for your consid-
Grafton the certainty that such changes
whatever their motive and however
they may be explained by those whom
they suggested will be greeted alike by
the friends and enemies Of the merit
system as a step backwards step the
more significant because it will be the
first step backward avOwedly taken by
the executive branch of the government
since the civil service law took effect.
1.-The merit system in our public ad-
ministratiOn has proved it's worth. Tx
perience has shown that where eV-
er the hostility of appointing or gov
erning offices has not been an impedt-
ment it has improved the personnel Of the
branches in which it has been esta b
lished and reduced the public expense
while in other branches where the rule
has not been applied the case has or
ten been notably the reverse.
"In the classified force of the depart
mental service at Washington alone
during the period from 1888 to 1896 the
saving effected annually through in
creased efficiency has been estimated in
the official reports of the civil service
commission at more than $4,000, 900.
1--WE believe that changes, whereby
positions and classes of positions are
now removed from the classified service,
will be accepted not only as step back
ward, but as proof that the system is
not regarded by the present administers
ton as here and here to stay, and will
inevitably awaken doubt as to the sim
cerity of repeated declarations of the
party now dominant in national affairs
that the law establishing it shall be
thoroughly enforced and extended
wherever practicable"
