WILSON SP EECH
CHEERS lem Up
Regarded as An Expression of
Good Will by Local Fed
eral Officers.

"If men are to know that a mere
change Of administration n TO empty
an office no matter how they have de-
served to be re-appointed. there Is not
anything Of justice or public right left"
This particular passage from
statement made at Trenton Tuesday,
by President-elect Wilson, travelled
like a messenger of good cheer through
the Offices of the Richmond Federal
building yesterday and caused little
plants of hope TO take root and blossom
anew. IL furnished a lively topic of
conversation all day. IL was particular
iy gratifying to hundred or more
holders of minor clerkships who took
Mr. Wilson's statement to heart as an
evidence of his good will TO all Federal
servants who have performed their
duty well. whether they are enrolled
under the donkey or elephant
Mr. Wilson has all through the
campaign given evidence that he is an
earnest advocate of the merit system.
said one of higher Federal officers, "and
his utterances at Trenton yesterday
only strengthen that view. l nrmly
believe that the spoils system as IL was
known in former years has lost caste as
an instrument of reward for party ser
vice. ] believe the day Is not far on
when employees of the government will
receive the same consideration as en-
ployes of business corporations
That was the tenor of the remarks
heard on all sides. The fact that Mr..
Wilson made this statement to dele

preached him with request to replace

Labor with one OF the Democratic faith.
was regarded as especially significant.
The more case-hardened of the Fed
eral jobholders were inclined TO look
upon the utterance as prefunctory
statement of a theory of conduct with
nothing to encourage the belief that IL
will be more generally observed next
March than in previous changes of ad-
ministration. But even these showed
a brighter mien. Hope springs eternal
in the human chest. and Federal office
holders. at this time particularly, are
strongly inclined 10 hope
