The Rise Of
Democracy

ITO the victor belongeth the
spoils" was long the slogan of
American politics. The ''spoils
system" has been one of the
greatest abuses of our political
organization. 1t has distribut-
ed public offices on the basis of
party service, and sacrificed
efficiency in admiration to the
Strengthening Of political ma
chimes. it has given rise to
many and grave evils. It has
been a great obstacle in the path
Of Democracy.
The system of patronage re-
ceived its first great blow in the
creation of the Civil Service
Commission in 1883. When
this law went into force it ap-
piled to only about IA, 600 places
which were then included in the
classified service. But the num-
ber has been steadily increased,
until to-dry the larger per cent
Of Offices in the executive civil
service are filled by examination
and promotion under civil SER
vice rules. Mr.. Roosevelt, in
the course Of his administration,
notably widened the range of
the merit system, almost
doubling the number of positions
to which civil service rules ap-
ply.
But so firmly entrenched an
institution as patronage has
in our political ss,stem, is not
easily overthrown. With the
rise Of pure Democracy the
''spoils SYSTEM must become
increasingly thing of the past.
The great watch-word of De-
mocracy is EFFICIENCY. 1t
is modern word, and one new
to the political vocabulary. 1t
is a word that many politicians
cannot understand. It means
that the people rule in fact as
we'll as theory. It means that
the interests of the people are
to be safeguarded by measures
enacted for the common good,
and by the appointment of gov
ernmental employees who are
competent. trained and qualified
for the task of ministering to
the common good. EFFICIENCY
is great word. It is greater
word than conservation. It
means conservation, and more. |

lie not what the world has in

Homecoming Day at ST. PauI's,

The Home Coming Day exer-

Church, near Salisbury, Sunday,

for the occasion was a success. In
the forenoon, the pastor, Rev. NJ.
L Ridenhour, preached on "Home
Coming there was plenty of
good music, and Mrs. John A.
sloop sang a solo very effectively.
The homecoming exercises in
the afternoon we're the main fea-
lures of the day. A welcoming
address was delivered by State
Senator T. D. Brown and q re.
Spouse was made by R. A. Rainey

by M. e.. NJ. Fisher, J. D. A.

Among the former pastors who
took part in the exercises were
Rev. G. A. Brown CT China Grove,
Rev. V. Y. Boozer of Lexington,
and R ". R. R. Sewers of Granite
Curry. An interesting feature
was the reading of the history OF
the church from 1880 to the pres

ed building, poured volley after
volley into the Catholic ranks and
it was a sordid story of Inc morality
and vice which he laid at the door
of the priesthood. He gave the
names, dates and places in relat-
ing numerous almost unbelievable
Incidents, in which priests we're
the central figures. With plain
language he attacked the system
of the Romanish church, az we'll
as the life and habits of her
priests, bishops and the popes .
At times his descriptions of Ger
tain Incidents which he said were
true and of which he exhibited
evidence of proof, we're in plain
language that could not be mis-
understood. Hardened men we're
almost b%reathless, wondering
what would come next. The
climax WAS reached when he told
what he said he knew of the mep
he was assalling and what had
been accomplished in the lives Of
some of them. He apologlzed for
his language but believed it best
to tell things without lodging.
The address throughout, ending
a few minutes before midnight,
ought to awaken our people to
this great menace which is hans.
ing as a pail over u country ane
her institutions. No such public
utteranoes have ever been heard
in this city before and though i,
took a strong stomach to listen t,
it all, it is hoped much good will
come of it. 1t is a strange fact
that every ex priest, nun or
speaker against Romanism tells
substantially the same story of
priestly lusts, depravity, drunken.
ness, political ambitions and deg
relations. 1t is horrible to think
that such things can be said and
proven on an institution purport-
ing to be a Christian church. If
one tenth of the statements made
are true, 1t is remarkable that a
single decent person, aware of the
facts, can be found connected
therewith.
