There has Been no corresponding In
crease OF facilities for doing the work
afforded to the Department having
charge of foreign relations.
Neither at home nor abroad is
her a sufficient working force to do
the business properly. In many res
poets the system which was adequate
to he work of twenty-five or even ten
years ago, is Inadequate now, and
shoNld be changed. Our consular
force should be classified, and ap-
pointments should be made to the sew
eral classes, with authority to the
Executive to assign the members of
each class to duty at such posts as
as the interests of the service
require, instead of TIN appoint
ments being made as at present
to specified posts. There should be
an adequate inspection service, SO
that the Department may be able to
itself how the business of each
consulate is being done, instead OF
upon casual private infor-
Or rumor. The fee system
should be entirely abolished, and a
due Equivalent made in salary to- h
who now exc out their SUBJ
sistence by means of fees.
