AN ARMY ON THE MOVE.

The presidents action in placing 15.0oO fourth-class rcstmasters under the civil service is followed by the rumor that he will blace about 6O.OOO more officials in the classified service before March i. Of these about 25.000 are fourth-elass postmasters and the remainder are deputy marshals, depu-
 ty collectors, deputy surveyors, as sistant attorneys, etc, says the Wash ington Post. If such action should be taken, members of the house of representa- lives would be relieved of practically all their patronage. The principal federal offices in every state are at the disposal of senators, as rule. Congressman. are consulted. of course. but in the end the senators have their way. The prospective transfer of all smaller officials to the civil service is wei calculated to dismay those members of congress who cling to the theory that the bestowal of patronage makes them more f'1enes than enc mics. Some of the progressive mem bers take the opposite view, holding that while only one man can be made happy in disposing of federal office, a dozen or more may be made unhap- py and revengeful
 The placing of 15.O00 postmasters under civil service was significant of a political revolution. The president would not have taken such a step without careful inquiry and delibera, tion. He must have considered the se.Sice as a whole and it is therefore probable that he will treat all fourth class postmasters alike. If l5,0OO of them should be under the civil ser vice, all of the IO,OAO and more should be there.
 Should they be there? Public sen timeut seems to answer this question in the affirmative. The presidents power in the premises is unquestion- ed. The expediency of exercising this power at this time, and to such a re- markable extent, may be discussed with more or less passion by meIh- bers of congress whose patronage is affected; but it is improbable that a serious clash will occur. Unless the unexpected happen ct this session of congress, resulting in an entire change of policy, it seems probable that the work undertaken by the pres ident will be completed, and that, once accomplished, :t will not be un- done by future congresses or presi- dents. st5- 4s

THE CONVICTION OF RUFF.
(san Francisco ChronicIe.) ,

(San Francisco ChronicIe.)
 The conviction of Ruef on the charge of offering a bribe to ex-Super. visor John J. Furey to vote for trol. ley franchise to the United Roads company will go far to remove an impression prevalent at the east, ana for the creation of which a section of our own community is largely re- sponsible. There never was the slight est donbt in the mind of any intelli- gent San Franciscan concerning the guilt of the accused boss. His dis graceful manipulation of a weak and venal mayor, and of the predatory board of supervisors for whose nomi- nation he was responsible, and whose election was secured during one Of the temporary alterations to which large communities are subject, was too patent to permit doubt to exist for a moment. There was absolute ly none, and if concensus of opinion were sufficient to convict, Abe Ruef would have been wearing stripes long ago.
 About the guilt of the accused there was no doubt -hat he was a man who shrank from no scheme by which he might line his pockets there is not the slightest question. The ev- fdenee that he was responsible for nearly all the rascality which afflicted San Francisco during the time he was in power may not stand legal scrutiny, but it is convincing enough 10 satisfy every one who has followed his career. But despite this opinion, which is shared by an overwhelming majority of the community, there has, from the beginning, been a fear that the technicaIities of the law, and the unscrupulous methods of i;6is defend CTS, who have aOt hesitated to eni. pioy every method, legal and illegal, to help their client, might result in a miscarriage of justica Unfortunately this feeling extended 80 far that it began to be feared that the jury sys- tenn was wholly undependable and could not be relied upon when it ser vices were needed to convict crim- inal whose cunning in employing the means Of defense, which too lax sys, tenn of criminal procedure permits, is equal to his ingenuity in devising modes of corrupting weak officials and of robbing the people.
 Happily the verdict will remove this injurious impression. It is now seen that an honest jury can be SC cured in San Francisco despite the efforts of bribers and ingenious in yentors of methods to exclude intelli gent men from acting in the capacity of jurors The demonstration of this fact has been iaboriously accomplish, ed, but if the lesson of the long and wearisome trial is needed the latter will not have been in vain.

The ultimate conviction of Abe Ruef, on a charge of bribery. after 2 trial which lasted for more than one hundred days. will be cause for gen eraI satisfaction among all decent and law abfdsng citizens. It is to be hoped that the conviction Of Ruef Is only a forerunner to follow until every graft ing politician. guilty of corrupting the city government of saD Flaasisco. is behind the prison ters.
