The records Of the Civil Service Com

been appointed in that Office i'm violation
Of the civil service law.
The request made q few days ago by
the Public Printer, asking the Civil
Service Commissioners to Investigate and
let him know if any appointments had
been made in the printing office con-
trary to the -ivil service, has been re-
ceived by the commission. and the rec
oTds are now being examined. The only
question involved IS the classification OF
positions known as classified laborers.
There are some laborers in the print.

be CLASSIFIED, as the order of about a
year ago classifying laborers included
them, but it seems some of them were
rot included.
