vacancy caused by the death of Mark
S. Brewer. This announcement appeared
among many other appointments made
by the president on that day. Without
further explanation, comment or citation
of Mr.. Rodenberg's record as to the civil
service reform, his appointment to
place in the commission might appear to
be matter of commonplace significance.
When it is learned from record evidence
that Rodenberg is more than unfriendly
to the civil service reform, and has
endeavored to make the commission in
effective by voting in congress against
appropriations for the salaries and
travelling expenses of the commissioners,
the remarkable character of Rodenberg's
appointment is revealed. On February
II, 1900, Rodenberg voted in the house
of representatives for an amendment to
the legislative, judicial and executive
appropriation bill, which, if adopted,
would have been equivalent to the
abolition of the commission. The
amendment proposed to strike out the
appropriations for the salaries of the
commissioners and their Office staff, as
well as the appropriation for travelling
expenses incurred in the work Of the
commission. Rodenberg' 'sacceptance of
a salary, which he thinks ought to be
abolished, and his appointment to an
Office whose operations he wanted to
stop by Withholding the ''supplies," con-
stitute as grotesquely absurd an Incl
dent as anything that can be recalled
in American political life. 1t moves the
New York World to say:
president Mckinley has apparently
given civil service reform another back
ward turn. He has appointed to the
vacant commissionership ex-Congress-
man Rodenberg, of Illinois, one of the
politicians left 'out Of job by the
people, and who, as he couldn't be
taken care Of as he desired to be, with
an appointment as one of the st. Louis
Worlds Fair Commissioners, was given
something almost as good in the civil
service line.
"Mr. Rodenberg's peculiar fitness for
this place and his sympathy with reform
are indicated by the vote that he cast in
the house year ago-with seventy-six
other members-to strike out the appro-
priation for the support of the commits
sion in which he now finds refuge with
a salary.
"Poor old civil service reform is having
a hard time!"
In setting the reform on foot, Mr.. Nc
Kinley's presidential predecessors were
careful to select for the commission
persons who were not virulently hostile
to non-partisan civil service. Had the
commission been composed wholly of
Rodenbergs the civil service reform
would have died at it's birth; and sure
