AN OHIO CORRESPONDENT
Pays His Respects to the COterie of
Pap Suckers Running Things
in This City
Eailor Snnaar GLobe.

Editor Sunday Globe:
Why is it that a certain coterie of pap
suckers who have hung onto the public teat
until they have nearly pulled the darn
thing out by the roots are so persistent in
their efforts to keep the Census Office from
being made a permanent bureau and its
clerks from being put under Civil Service,
when there is not another department of
the Government where the average Of in
telligeuce is as high or the same degree Of
efficiency prevails?
Every clerk in the Census Office whose
salary is 5000 or more was required to pass
an examination more rigid and in every
way harder than the so-called Civil Service
examination, and there was no coaching by
interested aud anxious chiefs to enable
them TO pass.
There is no other department of the Gov
ernment where every clerk had to pass an
examination before being appointed and it
is true that very small per cent only of
the clerks now under Civil Service ever
passed any kind of an examination and a
much smaller per cent of them that could
pass even thirty per cent average on the
census examination.
Senators and Representatives in Congress
who recommended census clerks from their
respective districts for examination and ap-
pointment if qualified ought to feel real
good" over the proposition of the political
Eunuchs-conceited asses Of the Sampson
Maclay breed OF snobs-who propose to
dictate to their masters whom they shall
have represent them and kick out every one
not proposed by the Evil" Service Com
mission, who arrogate to themselves SUI

ing population as serfs

the GLOBE against him are true. Are they

Mikey denies nothing himself, and his

to dsprove anything for him, either in
court or anywhere else. The door of the

as a martyr, the innocent lamb of malicious
persecution. Assuming this new role and
attitude his fawning heuchmen will appeal
to Members Of Congress and SenatoIs on

Good enough There are several chapters
of vindicatiou on record now in both
Houses of Congress, and by the time the

sycophantic friends will neither recognize
him nor themselves in the reflection of

that knows him, and his tricks and schemes
are coming to light

The secret hostility to a permanent cen

The failure of the permanent census bill
to pass the House Friday evening was en-
tirely due to the praisworthy anxiety Of
appOintees, which the brevity of the pro-

The amendment of Mr. Hemenway of In

civil service examination, of the present
