Mckinley and the Civilservice.
From the Chicago Record.

FROM the Chicago Record.
The Democratic national platform OF
1896 contained a plank which was gen
orally interpreted as an attack on the
merit system. Had the Democrats
won at the polls and had they then pro
ceeded to substitute spoils appointments
for civil service regulations, the ln'ht'
to the service would have SST great,
bpt. the peart~ sOCstSuOt have complain
ed that they were deceiAed, or that
they were getting that for which they
did not vote. The Republican plat
form, however, contained a specific
pledge to uphold the Civil Service law
and to extend its operations wherever
practicable. The party promised to
abide by the principles there announced
and it promised to put into execution
the policies there outlined. President
Mckinley in his letter of acceptanceTe'
ferred especially to the civil service
plank of the party platform, and gave
his pledge that it should be faithfully
observed. He condemned the opposi-
ton for favoring a return to the meth
DDS of party favortism. The Repub-
lican party" he said, earnestly OPP
poses this reaetionary and entirely un-
justihable policy. 1t will take no back
ward step on this question. 1t will seek
to improve but never to degrade the
public service"
No promise could be more satisfact-
DRY, and upon the strength of it many
voters supported the candidacy of Mr.
Mckinley. Now, when they see the
backward step" taken; when they
witness the degradation of the public
service as the result of President Nc,
Kinley's order, they have the kuowl'
edge of solemn pledges broken that
must tend to weaken popular conhd-
ence in the ballot as a means of accom-
plishiug definite results. This is indeed
a more serious effect of the Presidents
order than the decentralization of the
public service, though the evil conse-
quences of that cannot easily be over.

The Republican., 1899-05-04
Multum in ParVo.

The resolutions passed by the Mary
land League of Republican Clubs are
too lengthy for reproduction in their
entirety, but the statement that is of
most lively interest is that referring to
the achievement of the Republican
state administration which will come
under review by the people of the
state this fall.
I'VE are on the eve of another cleo
tion for state officers, > read The resolu-
tion, and it is with pleasure that we
call the attention of the voters of the
state to the record of the first Repub-
lican administration. Once more we
congratulate the state that, by a Re-
publican promise redeemed, it has the
first and only honest election and reg
istration law that was ever placed up
on its statute books. By this law the
sanctity of the ballot is assured and
the birth-right of every citizen is pre-
served inviolate. The Free School
DOoh law, tHS LlSht-iOuil ItpOI law,
and other laws of equal import stand
as shining monuments of the devotion
of the Republican party to the inter
est of the whole people. Two Repub-
lican legislatures have sat at Annap-
oils, and their time has been taken up
with the affairs of vital importance to
the citizens, instead of wasted with
jobbing for the bosses. The woman
has been made equal to the man in
the eye of the law; reforms haYe been
instituted in every department of
state government, and the people
have had the service of honest and
efficient public servants.
1.-The condition of the finances of
The Republican., 1899-05-04

For THE qualification of the Jour-
nal we desire to state that the
charges made for election printing
and publishing done at this Office last
fall were at the same rate as the Jour-
nal charges for advertising when some
unfortunate individual, widow or
orphan is sold out at mortgagees sale
We also desire to state that the rate
made for advertising is fixed by law
and we defy the Journal, even in its
cowardly manner, to prove that we
charged more than the law allows.
In connection with the JOuTnarS s
bid for the printing of the election
ballots we have it from good author
ity that for the 5000 ballots necessary
for that election the Journal wanted
nearly $14 per thousand. The work
was done at another office for the sum
of $S per thousand.
To read that contemplate aggre-
cation of rot and slander (the Jour-
mall one unacquainted with the mo-
tives which prompt its 07linuS toward
all acts of public officials and those
engaged in the publication of legiti-
mate newspaper, the only conclusion
that could be reached is that the
Journal is the only pure article with
