corruption will not occasionally occur

previous experiences in prosecuting
government officials who have been
guilty of malfeasance or misfeasance

What has been accomplished by you,

communications From
Readers of The Times
Suggestions to MIR. Hepburn.

TO the Editor OF The Washington Times:
In reading the speech Of Mr.. Hepburn
II occurred TO me that notifications
might Zoe made in some of his sugses-
ions touching the Abolition or revision
OF the present civil service laws. II is
apparent that there Is always danger IN
placing the power of removal absolutely
IN the hands of one man. whether he be
PRESIDENT or section chief He would
lhen be in a position TO remove anyone
who might prove obnoxious TO him,
whether from personal spite, or for other
reasons. and himself remain in office.
Would not this be "a good suggestion?
When man has been appointed solely
for his fitness to fiji the position, upon
a recommendation from his member OF
Congress, could not some provision be
made whereby no one could remove this
man from office except with the full
knowledge of the one to whom he owed
his appointment primarily. or until hc
had been given an opportunity 60 defend
himself before a jury of six men. three
chosen by himself and three by the re-
moving power in order that no injustice
be done
The whole curse of the present system
Is removal at the viii OF some insiguif-
cant person who happened 10 be put in
power through the favor OF some one In
higher authority and not through abil-
ity 10 I'LL his position.
II the civil service system is to be
kept up. then ! do not see why members
OF Congress should not be compelled 70
pass the ordeal. l am willing to wager
a thousand dollars that there are not

unforeseen circumstances, beyond the

that the chances are nine out of ter
