GOVERNMENT CLERKS.

Thrift A~sae Thso 1aerseseA usAss
Civil Service Boses. -, u.s.
One Of the most satisfactory results
Of tho establishment Of tho civil serv-
ice law and regulations here. according
to an old o4Rcer of the government
has been the increasing unpopusrity
of the borrowing habit among clerks,
writes tho Washington correspondent
of the New York Times. The uncer-
tainty of tenure of Office under the
spoils system tended to carelessness
in the use Of money, and carelessness
brou ght on the nacassity for anticipaf-
ing pay BY borrowing. sometimes from
persons of smaA capital who demand
ed extortionate interest for their
loans. Since efficiency has come to
be the condition Of retention in office
and not political influence, thrift has
increased, and hundreds Of clerks who
were ones ii the habit % borrowing
from month to month are now saving
money to pay for homes purchased On
the instalmeot plan, and in such In
stalments that many years are given
in which to clear OF the membranes
acquired with ~ property. The de-
partment money lender ~ he used to
be has almost disappeared, and Y -
asserted that there are no longer OK
members OF congress here who derive
more money ~ interest than they OBJ
tanned in 4 year e: members ,ofF tho
house. This class OF lender WAS the
most dreaded and respected. for whom
he operated he learned to exercise his
political influence In . cruel and wan
ton manner In case his e1orbitant
interest was not paid On time.

opera had not boon placed on the d.

among the musicians. The court was
expected to arrive at any moment, and
the orchestra we'll knew that Freder-
lick August would be enraged did their
instruments not burst into harmony az
4soon as he appeared. The anxiety ex-
tended to the audience; Caroline. the
wife of Weber, looked at the empty
desk before her husband with agita4
etOn. Weber saw The dagger, but he
smiled, and, without losing sang froid.
sent some one to search for the score;
but the court entered at about the
same instant. Weber glanced at his

who have not read Carlysle graphic
description of the excuses of the French
aristocracy in times just preceding tn
revolution will find shadow of the
same picture in Vanderbilt automobi e
rides over New England roads last sum
mer in defiance of the law. as they have
also found it in the fox hunting depre
dations Of the rich upon the honest
farmers fields. 1t matters little that
these lordly people pay the fines and
reimburse the injured farmer. The
mere notion that rich man can violate
the law if he is willing to pay for it
is wholly at war with American dem
cracy.
Hardly less reprehensible, thinks
Bishop Lawrence, is THAT spirit of
comnercialism which would test the
value of character by money, or guage
social position by fortune, nor is he
10 much afraid of the rich man in poll
tics rs the poor and weak man in politics
and the rich man outside. 1t does one
good, too, to hear notable prelate like
Bishop Lawrence telling money bags
that he has no sympathy with that
cheap, snowy, but dangerous expendi-
ture of money that offends the common
sense of the people, and that ''wanton
waste is the privilege Of no man or
woman in this democratic country
1t would fare better with the churches
and with the cause of religion among
the people if there were more men like
Bishop Lawrence ready to tell the truth
at s2O'a plate dinners of the rich-not
in spirit Of bitterness and malice but
in the real spirit of Christianity. What
a privilege to be able to say to 400 multi
millionaires, as did Bishop Lawrence at
the chamber of commerce banquet:
Light and action-heroic actionl
There are men today waiting to throw
off the shackles of the modern bandits,
but they dare not alone. What Is want
ed is group of men, high in position,
strong in power, who, at great cost, If
need be, will stand and say; Thus far,
up the lines of the incest honor, shalt
thou go, and no farther -

Plain Talk to the Rich.

From the Boston Globe,
After the utmost has been said In the
attempt TO show that the churches have
largely outlived their usefulness aud
that the clergy are afraid OF the wealthy
pews, II IL none the less true that the
clergy are the only class Of moral re.
formers that ever get the ear Of the very
rich, and II must DO acknowledged that
they often utilize their high privilege
with telling effect, The rich DO not
read very largely papers which scold AT
them and denounce their practices, and
the ordinary labor reformer never gets
u chance TO helabor them with invec.
tives, But the poor and neglected classes
now and then have tho satisfaction Of
hearing real abuses Of wealth handled
without gloves ut the hands Of promin.
ent clergymen before listening and re-.
spectful audiences Of milionaires.
A noteworthy instance Of this Ia seen
IN the case Of tho Right Rev, William
Lawrence, bishop OF the Episcopal
Diocese OF Massachusetts,, who WAS IN.

Publishing New Lawa.

A member of the house has informed
the Little Rock Democrat that he
will during the present session introduce
\ bill requiring the publication of the
laws throughout the state rs they are
passed, Several states already have
such n requirement, The idea IA that
since the whole people are required 10
obey the law the best possible efforts
should be made TO acquaint them with
the provisions OF law. II " said that
ignorance OF the law excuses no one,
aud yet people who have no opportunity
10 inform themselves are amenable for
violations, Only two or three copies OF
the acts of n legislature are sent into a
township, IL IL not reasonable to eup.
pose that even half Of the people could
get information from that source, n
the laws are printed In the newspapers
the good citizens Of every community
will soon become aware Of their provis.
ions, and we confidently believe there
will be less lawlessnees, Then indeed
will ignorance be inexcusable, The
naases will be educated TO " higher
