CIVIL SERVICE PENSIONS.

THERE is developing i'll Washington a scheme

ernment clerks who are worn out in'the service
Those behind the plan think the 'hard worked

1t is argued that their salaries are low and they
cannot lay by anything for their old age and
that the people of the country through the gov
ernment should support them They want
Civil Service pension list that would become
larger and larger the years rolled on. Per-
haps the schemes of few private corporations
to take care of their employees by insurance and
pension funds and the like have spurred the
friends of the clerks and other government en-
ployeS to urge their plan of a Civil Service PEN
sion )st.
The country will however, hesitate before it
plunges into the wholesale pensioning of all en-
ployes of the government Those employed in
the government service not forced to work
for the government. Government jobs at Wash
ington are looked upon as Snaps by the outsid-
ers. There is not much to 10, there is fair
pay, and not a great deal of competency is re-
quired. The pay is better or as good as for the
same line Of work in private life. If clerks in
private life have to look out for the future, why
should not the government clerks holding steady
positions be able to lay something by for rainy
day? We don't imagine that the ordinary clerk
can save much money but the government clerk
is certainly better off than the average clerk
on the outside.

OF incompetent men to DO the work of the city
departments is just as much of a fraud upon the
city as is the stealing of money from the city
revenues. This is putting it rather strongly, but
the experience Baltimore is having justihes the
expression.
How ridiculous it is to think Of great city
conducting its affairs in an antiquated manner,
making itself an abiding place for incompetent
political hacks who could not be successful in
ordinary business either because of their lazi-
ness or incompetency, but who are, because Of
municipality should secure the very best of

tendance is concerned have been failure. A
handful of people have been there listehing to
the very able addresses of the speakers who were

on the remaining days has been small.

Here we have a state with fertile soil that will
produce almost everything, and we think that It
will be admitted that much of the progress made
in agriculture in Delaware has been due to the
efforts of farmers from other states who have
come here and settled among There are a
number of native Delaware farmers who have
either kept up with the procession or have been
in the front rank; but it must be confessed that
a great many of the native farmers-and they
