Consuls and the Pie Counter.

While Mr.. Bryan is in the west ad-
dressing legislatures and discussing many
without any head formally authorized TO
conduct the foreign relations of the ma
ton or to answer the questions ambas-
sadors are addressing daily to our gov
eminent, he can scarcely expect the pub
lie to take him very seriously as seere-
tary Of state. In the role of lecturer
on constitutional law he speaks aften AS
a party leader and throws out advice on
the best methods Of making two Demo-
cratic senators grow where only one
grew before; but he dismisses the re-
sponsibilities of the portfolio of state by
proelaiming that good, plain common
sense" is the chief requisite for the sue
cessful discharge of the duties of secre-
tary of state. That sounds well enough,
but it does not answer a question OF pub
lie intereft affecting the administration
OF the state department regarding which
he is ominously silent.
What about good, plain civil service
reform!" Under Presidents Roosevelt
and Taft the consular service was re-
moved absolutely from politics and
placed upon merit basis. During the
last administration no appointment was
made to the consular service except in
the lowest grades, and then only after a
written and oral examination. Although
not directly under the civil service com
mission all appointments were upon 3
merit basis, and as result a larger
number OF southern Democrats We're
among those who passed successfully the
rigid examinations. A census of the con-
slilar service to-day would probably show
fairly even distribution between the
several political parties. Business or
carnations all over the country We're
many years laboring for this reform, but
Congress has not yet enacted the legisla- |
ton necessary to make permanent the
terms of the several executive orders |
which removed consular jobs from the
pie-eounter.
1t was not necessary for President |
Wilson to await the return to Washing /
ton of the secretary of state to post on
the bulletin boards the new policy |
toward China. Then why delay day |,
longer a specific statement that the con-
sular service will be preserved intact un-
der the present administration, and no 1
or appointments to that service
be ordered except as provided for unlor
the rules promulgated during the last
two administrations? Here is an oppor-
tunity for the Wilson administration TO
square performance with pledge. 1t was
that, as president of Prince
ton and governor of New Jersey, Mr.
Wilson heartily favored protecting the
consular service from the spoilsmonger.
We hope that no words from his see
-etary of state will alter his views, but
very days delay of definite announce
nent increases apprehension that Sec
'etary Bryan is preserving, as he wonld
put it, "an open mind" upon
| reform regarding the value of which
he public long ago reached final con
lusion.-Boston Transcript.
