The Chicago Conference.

Inocracy has advanced further with its

The Postal Service

There can he no doubt of the logic
OF Postmaster General Burleson's posi-
ton regarding the examination OF post
masters who were included in the civil
service by executive order during the
last administration. If the competitive
examinations which he proposes are
conducted without any reference what
ever to partisanship of either incum
bents new applicants, the result
will he the filling of these places with
the best available people. If. however.
this examination is utilized simply
a means of oustins the people who
were included by the executive order
and their replacement by democratic par
tisans the effect will be grave injury
To the civil service principle.
The Postmaster General, in explanation
of the new order. speaks as one strong
ly favoring the merit basis of selection
for public office. and it must be assumed
that he will proceed with its execution
in that spirit and disregard all political
Affiliations as having nothing whatever
to do with the selection OF postmaSters.
This will be the surest way to secure
permanence in the application of the
true civil service idea to the postal sys
tenn. If the abrogation of the Taft
order and the opening of the post offices
to competition should lead merely to the
replacement of republicans by democrats
the next change of administration would
probably be marked by similar over
turning.
No matter how many republicans or
how many democrats are in the postal
service today. the federal government
should primarily require efficiency. 1t
should seek the most capable person in
each community for the responsible
work of handling the mails. regardless
of the question of partisanship or fac
ton. The postal service is great
business institution. intimately touch
ing the lives of the people and render
ing them invaluable assistance in tine
handling of their affairs. Its usefulness
has recently been greatly enlarged
through the postal bank and the
parcel post. and the Office of post
master, however large small the
town or city. is of sufficient Importance
to call for the services of efficient,
trustworthy. reliable people, who should
be selected with view TO their merits
and without reference to their political
predictions. To this end the examina-
tons that take place under the new
order should be conducted without the
slightest regard for political affiliations.

Murderous Militancy.

The London militants are passing
into their most dangerous phase of ac-
t:vity. Monday a bomb was found in
one of the large branch postal stations
OF the metropolis which If it had ex
ploded would undoubtedly have killed
many people. The other morning another
bomb of great potency was discovered
in the vestibule of one of the large
hotels in Trafalgar Square. The
woman who placed this second bomb
was caught. Yesterday bomb was found
in St Paurs Cathedral. Had these Internal
machines exploded London would to-
day have been the scene of a tragedy
of a character TO bring the British ma
ton to realizing sense OF the enor-
nifty of the militant law defiance.
There is no difference in principle be-
tween the smashing of windows of
merchants and the dyna hitting of rail-
road stations. post offices and hotels or
the burning Of dwelling houses. 1t is
all warfare. and the meanest kind of
warfare at that. for I'm practically every
instance of the British militancy the
chief sufferers have been innocent peo-
pie who have no part whatever In the
quarrel between the suffrage organiza-
tion and the government. AS long as
the women engaged in this propa ganda
confined themselves to the heckling of
public speakers and the annoying of
ministers with petitions and other
means of forcing their claims upon OFF,
cial attention they were within their
rights. although the program was i'm
practical and undignifed. But when
they started in TO destroy the property
of people who have no part in the con :
troversy. many of whom indeed were

subject Of woman suffrage. they placed

ciple' The gentleman is mistaken. War
for the most part is a sodden. brutal
thing, but ii has its moments of supreme
courage that appeal to the imagination as
the fortitude and sacrifices of peaceful
vOcatiOns never can. The army of toll

have peace. Let us work for it as a
fairer. more just policy. but let not the
pride of purpose assail truth. Cruel and
pitiless as war has been and must be. 1t
has glory in human appraisal that can
not be denied. The peace propaganda
will make little progress by distorting the
facts of nature.

themselves in the category OF outlaws
These women who are planting bombs
in London are no better than the
Mexican insurgent chief at whose
orders the other day train was
dynamited and 160 innocent lives were
sacrificed And the tragedy OF 1t all is
that these women are carrying on this
crusade Of destruction in the name OF
a more enlig htened civilization and for
the sake of a cause that on its own
merits appeals to the reason Of men.
Well doe, Mrs Gait say as she has just
