for keeping the ratings OF the clerks

be based.
The new system which takes the rlace
Of the so-called percentage system. by
which division chiefs rated each clerl,
on a percentage basis, places the mat
ter OF making the ratings in the hands
of a committee Of three OF the PRINCIPAL

Of value in arriving at the worth of
the clerk and the value Of the services
performed.
These cards are fled and become a
part Of the records Of the office. When

Mr.. Foraker said in regard 20 the

brought upon us our trouble was such
legislation as the Sherman antitrust
law, the Hepburn rate bill. with its
commodity clause now on trial. and

knows that II viii be a revision OF the
