TAFT CIVIL SERVICE
ORDER IS ATTACKED
Democrats Want Fourth-class Post
Offices, but on Ground that 1t In
cluded Republicans Only.

The executive order issued hy Presi-
dent Taft last October. classifying into
the civil service 10000 fourth-class post
masters, which has been so uniformly
Rssailed by the Democratic members Of
Congress. who dislikcd to see 50 much
Federal pie withdrawn from reach. has
not yet been broach-d to President VII
son. The representatives. rs much as
they would like to see the order rescind-
ed and have the 3J.Os Offices back on the
pie counter. are timOrous about bringing
tho matter up to the President.
The Presidents intimates know that
no appeal for the withdrawal of the
order based solely on patronage cupid
itv will influence him. An argument
which has been used hv some Interested
persons and which Is based on the prop
osition that tn" order is not in accord
ance with the spirit Of tn" civil service
law. il is believed, rnay be more fornid-
able eventually. Thcs" persons declare
that covering Or 20C1N political office
holders. no were appointed largely on
partisan consideration into the civil ser
vice. is not calculated to better the per
sonncl Of the service nor To increase
the efficiency Of the fourth class post
masters themselves
Thos" who use this argument declare
they havs not thought OF asking the
President 10 rCscind tn, order and to
place the fOurth-class appointments on
III" old political footing. II is their
dcsir" tha: the President Issue an OK
eCutive order declaring all OF the offices
vacant and ordering them to he filed
by civil service examinations. Such a
course. tho declare, would be entirely
In accord with the htghes, spirit Of the
civil servir. law and would work a great
improvement in the efficiency If the
postal branch
