Defect Of Merit System.

This, II seems to me. is the fatal de-
fct in the present administration Of the
civil service system. most enormously
called the merit system 1t is said that
no question is settled till 1t is settled
right and this question of compensation
to government employees will never be
settled till the civil service laws are so
amended as to provide for automatic
promotion at the end Of certain periods
Of service.
1.-The propriety and justice Of the sys-
TEN Of automatic promotion is recognized
in a bill presented by Senator Martin of
Virginia and passed by Congress last
crease 40 per cent? in the salaries of the
surgeons Of the public health and marine
hospital service. at the end Of each
successive period of five years. 1t is
likewise recognized in a similar BILL pre-
sented, II not passed. a year or two ago
In favor of the faculty Of the United
States Naval Academy. and this is the
recognized system Of promotion in both
the army and navy.
"If automatic promotion is correct in
principle. when applied to these surgeons
on the one hand and these teachers on
the other mot to mention the soldiers and
in aid of that vast army Of no less faith
full servants, the subordinate civilian
employees Of the government. more de.
pendent than any others on their salaries,
and on whose falthIuIneS6 ana en1clency
the successful administration of the
government SO largely depends?
Whatever difference of opinion there
may be in regard to such an automatic
system Of promotion. there can be but
one as to the injustice Of the system at
present applied to government employees
(excepting the favored classes referred TOP
by which their advancement Is made alb
solutely dependent on the interest mani
tested and the aggressiveness displayed
by the one In oflcial control Of them.

eminent employe, restrained and restrict
ed by executive orders from doing aught
in his own behalf, has apparently been
forgotten, and while the salaries OF the
President, his cabinet. the Judges Of the
Supreme Court, members Of both
branches OF Congress and possibly other
Of the higher officials of the government
have been materially increased, and most
properly SO, the salaries Of the defenseless
subordinate employees Of the government,

I'm the case of the higher officials,
mentioned above. the argument of the
increased cost Of living seems to have
been most potent, but when the attempt
is made to invoke this same argument
in behalf of that vast army Of faithful.
industrious and efficient subordinate
employees, to whom their salaries are
their all, this same argument seems to
have lost it's validity and its potency.
THE government, as l have already
said. takes very good care that the value

ually increases (as, indeed ii necessari-
ly does from Increased experience, and
therefore, increased efficiency, but, on
the other hand. the government seems alb
soluteiy unconcerned as to whether the

VIEWS OF W. D. BERKELEY
LETTER TO THE STAR

An indication of the widespread inter-
est which is being taken. not only in
Washington, but in the states, in the
campaign for better pay for the govern
ment's civil employees Is to be found in
letter addressed to The Star by William
n. Berkeley. government employe at
Annapolis, Nd.
Mr. Berkeley advocates the establish
ment Of an automatic increase in pay as
the government clerks increase in length
of service and efficiency. Referring to
the recent reference in The Star to the
campaign in the interests of the clerks
Mr. Berkeley says:
II am encouraged by these evidences of
your interest in the matter Of increased
compensation for government employees to
call your attention to certain line of
argument which, it appears to me, might
very we'll be used in support of this cause
which you are so ably championing, but
which, nevertheless, has never been en-
ployed. so far as l know. The argument
to which l refer is embodied in the fact
that when one enters the service of the
government he or she enters into a con-
tract with the government which is as
binding on the government as 1t Is on
the employee of the government.
by the terms of this contract. ex-
pressed or implied, the employee of the
government agrees to render to the gov
eminent services of certain prescribed
nature, while the govrnmnt as faithfully
promises, by implication at least, to ten
der to the employe a compensation which
shall at all times bear an equitable reia-
ton to the value of the services rem
dered by the employe. The maintenance
Of this equitable relation between the
value of the service rendered and the
value of the compensation rendered alb
solutely demands q continuous increase in
the latter corresponding with the neces-
sary increase in the former resulting nat
urally and necessarily from increased eX
perience, and, therefore, increased eff

The Valley Springs Sunday School.

Editor Times:
| had the pleasure a short time
ago of attending the Valley Springs
NJ. E. South Sunday school, which
is under the supervision OF Bro.
Ruble. 1t is the best Sunday school
have attended in some time, Bro.
Ruble is a live wire and keeps every
thing working to perfection.
Their faculty OF six teachers is not
to be excelled Everybody seemed
to be interested and took a delight
in making the school pleasant and
profitable. Attendance was good
and behavior excellent. Why not
have Sunday schools of this kind all
over Boone county? We could if we
would only do our duty as Chris
tians. 1t is well to look forward,
To anticipate the future end prepare
for it is not only perfectly proper
but eminentlv wise But then we
should be careful that we look for
ward to something worthy and
noble.
To have only anticipation and ex-
pectation of selfish and worldly pro-
fits and pleasures is to cherish the
dreams of a fool. To aim to spend
the life for God and man and the
interest of higher nature is to lay
the foundations of a career full OF
the trhest JOY and largest success.
Oh, young people standing on a
new year. look forward to some
thing worthy Of your nobler nature.
Then, when life nears its close, look
ing backward, with the aged
apostle, you may say also with him
"Henceforth is reserved for me a
crown of Righteousness"
