System" Unquestionably many
abuses grew up under it and o"Civil
Service Reform" laws were passed
and a new system adopted.
Under it's provisions commits.
sion of three members was
appointed and this commission was
empowered to formulate "rules and
regulations" to govern appointive
offices, and from time to time
various classes of these government
employees, excepting cabinet officers,
heads of bureaus with their con-
fdential secretaries, collectors of
revenues and customs, postmasters
and common laborers were placed
under the s'civil service" or
"merit" system as it's advocates
delight to term it. This commits
sion established what is known as
competitive examinations to
determine along educational lines
the "merit'' of the different candi-
dates for appolntive positions.
These examinations are held in the
leading cities-in St. Paul, Mime
apolis and Duluth, in Minnesota
at stated periods, generally twice
year. All those that make a
certain PERCENTAGE in the subjects
examined are put upon an "eligi-
ble'' list and if a vacancy occurs in
any branch of the government
service the head of the department
calls upon the Commission and they
"certify" up the names of the three
standing highest on the list and the
appointment is supposed to go to
one of the three so certified.
In order for one to keep his
name on the "eligible list after he
gets it there, he must continue to
pass the examinations every year
"lest he forgets'' but when once
appointed he never has to be
examined again. According to the
theory of modern civil service,
man is supposed to remember
nothing over year until he gets
appointed and then he is supposed
never again to suffer a lapse of
memory. When one is appointed
he continues in Office during "good
behavior and-if the rules are
followed-when once appointed he
cannot be reduced in rank or
discharged except upon accusations
passed upon and sustained by the
commission.

Tribute to Chopin,

At a concert in Strasburg the tenth
bar Of Chopin's Funeral March" had
been reached when the pianist found
himself playing alone. The other
members of the orchestra, overcome
by emotion, had ceased playing. The

and the program abruptly closed.
Whether the people who had paid for
seats also wept is not stated.

GRAfTERS.

1t is stated, says the Reno OBJ
server, that a man by the name
of Jerome Hickman, who filed on
a few acres of comparatively
worthless land near Hazeu. at
tempted to graft the railroad
company by placing high figure
on a certain strip of land they
needed. The company would
not stand the graft and survey
and townsite is being plated
about a mile from Hazen in con
sequence. 1t will be a serious
blow to the town of Hazen, should
this move be carried through.
The citizens of the place are just
ly indignant.
It is to be hoped that no such a
graft will be attempted on the
Nevada Northern Railway Co.
The older citizens in White Pine
county have grown grey waiting
and hoping to live to see q rail
road tap the resources of the
county. Now that the work of
construction of road will com
mence in few weeks, let us all
render such encouragement and
assistance as we can. In addl-
ton to granting a right of way
it is customary for towns and
counties through which proposed
roads are to run, to grant sub
Stantial bonuses, if not a lamp
sum of money, lands for depots,
switches, etc. Roads are also
frequently made exempt from
taxation for certain number of
wears. The Nevada Northern
+ has not asked for anything more
than the right Of way or town
and county roads; nor does it eX-
spect anything further, except
fair treatment from the private
owners of property over which
the road is to be built. No doubt
but that the company will will
