The Commission Reports the Law An That
Was Claimed for It
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The annual
report Of the civil service commission
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1897,
has been presented to the president.
1t begins with a statement to show
that after an experience of nearly IS
years the hopes Of the advocates Of the
civil service law have been largely
realized In practice the law has
proved to be constantly exerted and
effective force in the direction Of econ
Omy. Considering the few changes in
the service under the merit system and
the wholesale removals under the pat
rOnage system, the economy and eff
cheney Of the one stand in striking con-
trast to the extravaganee and inefH-
cheney Of the other.

EEG IDEAL WIFE.

Cf course she is amiable. in fact. she is obtuse; so that she has often been called fool b. dispassionate observers. Of course she has patented smile always ready. or course she is always to bo found like one of the plush parlor set, in place and at home. Of coarse she is always ready to listen to her husbands yarns, to smile when he explains to her how much cIeverer be is than all other men, or to sym pathize when he tells her how Smith punched his head. Of course she hasa housefu' of children on whom she layishes all that remains of the affection bestowed upon the head Of J.a family.
 She never "makes day of it" hopping down town. Oh, no, she is tot like Smiths wife. She never goes to balls or matinees. Oh, no. she has no ball dresses to begin with, and then the tax on whisky and tobacco make matinee tickets uaobtaiaable for her.
 S-e is always to be found at home doing Ter duty by her family, Pat hing, darning. dusting baking, nursing and waiting, She is like a sore finger, always on hand and very tender, but with all tendency to rise taken cut of her by caustic application. She never is guilty of h 'se things which some men talk about afler dinner at tLe club.
 Poor woman, she never has a chance. Sae has never yet felt the end of the rope; it's tension has been too tight. She IS the ideal wife, seldom found, but when discovered, always kept to her negative level by the adequation of positive pro perties possessed by him who balances the scales.
 The ideal wife is usually married ta a deIi of @ husband. This is what makes her ideal She wasnot born so- Sine grows so from as socia'ion with seifshness and other disagceaable qualities. She is the product of civilized selhshncgs. and as beast of burden is great snc- cess. Cowlike, slo is gentle and conducive to the comfort of her fellows.

IT Is a matter of observation that there seems to he an over anxiety of some of Governor McCord's fuendS (?) 10 have him enter the army. The object has become so apparent that it is evident that these same friends have method in their anxiety, which makes us smile. Governor McCord can be of much more service to the federal government and the territory as governor than g. a colonel away off in the Philippines. It is much easier 10 make colonels than 10 find material for the class of men neces- sary to administer the affairs of Arizona, as 1t IS now conducted.
