OF civil service reform did not satisfy
only desire to shield something like
$4,000 republican Office holders, many
of whom were appointed to Office for
political reasons and for political rea-
sons of th&..owest type.
It is now said that Postmaster Cen
eraI Burleson is planning civil service
examinations for all fourth-cIass post
masters. This is wise and just Il
the foIirth-class postmasters are to be
under the protection of the civil SER
vice rules, they certainly ought to be
able at least to pass the examinations
required by law.
President Taft knew and Postmaster
General Hitchcock knew that few Of
their republican fourth class postmas-
ters could pass any sort OF an examina-
ton, where an educational and intel
lectual standard was demanded, hence
the sweeping order.
On the face of things the republi-
cans will still have the better of it,
because it is to be presumed that after
man has held an Office for months
and perhaps years, he ought to be
better able to pass an examination
along the lines of fitness of such duties
than a new man.
Public sentiment demands the best
service possible in public office.

DISCUSSES SOME BROADER
VIEWS WITH The PUBLIC

March %, 1913.
| Editor Pensacola Journal:
I notice that Mr.. Henderson in the
Directory Issue" of the Pensacola
Commercial Association says that
the name of the association is
open to criticism, and I wish to say
in your columns that 1 agree with him
and think it should be changed. Had
my thoughts stopped at that point I
need not have troubled The Journal
with this letter, but I want to make
tr an occasion for mentioning some
broader views to the public.
A city is community, with a va
riety of interests which serve them
selves the better by helping to serve
others; hence the expression "a com
munity of interests
The law allows city to raise money
by levying taxes, but only for certain
well-defined public purposes. Apart
from these there are other good and
useful purposes for which public funds
are necessary, chief among them be-
ing the promotion of trade or COM
merce; hence the names, Trades AS
socia ton, Commercial Asso ciation,
Chamber of Commerce. etc, given to
ton. l am of opinion that the estaib-
hShment of a system of Commercial
Associations throughout the world is
only the beginning of a larger, broad
er organization, by means of which
every possible need of a city, CONNER
cial or aesthetic, can be taken care of.
and the cost thereof be betrayed by
the voluntary or self taxation of the
citizens: this quite apart from the
cut and dried system of taxation for
public service.
That voluntary taxation may be re-
lied upon has been demonstrated by
the large sums SO raised by CONNER
cial Associations generally; therefore,
all that need be done is to widen the
scope of such associations SO as to
include in their purpose all and every
scheme calculated to benefit the city
and thereby the subscribers.
Such a widening would necesSitate
a change of name from Commercial
Association to Citizens Association.
and every citizen should be member,
including every man and every woman
of legal age. Members having ideas
for the betterment of the city could
hand in their opinions in writing to
the secretary with the certainty of
getting a hearing at the monthly or
possibly weekly meetings, and the
whole city would thus be working for
the general benefit of the city.
/ can see how the present associa
ton might increase it's membership
and income four fold, and could han
die many new desirable projects with
very little addition to its present
enninentIy satisfactory staff.

Wide Range
For Work.

The Pensacola journal said on more
occasions than one that it will be
better for the country for the next
congress to give to the people the
promised tariff reform before anything
else is attempted.
In his call for the extra session, Pres
ident Wilson does not indicate what
the public business will be that makes
this an extraordinary occasion. The
president leaves the way open for con-
gress to consider the tariff, currency
reform or any other matters he may
recommend
The democratic party has promised
to the people a reduction Of the tariff
taxes, a reform of the currency and
banking laws, tax on incomes, popu-
lar election of senators, a single term
for presidents and severa. other I'M
portant matters. Congress is making
good some Of these reforms as fast
as it can and the people will not be
content until all Of these promises are
carried out.

When President Taft just on the
eve OF his retirement from office issued
an order placing some $4,000 fourth

less caustic comment. The leading ad-

not justify the ex-president's action,

before he did. This eleventh hour

Some Queer Stunts

some queer sums
Congress does some queer things.
For instance some one without the
fear of Tampa in his heart secured an
amendment to the bill which changed
the whole system of collecting customs
in Florida, by making Jacksonville the
head centre with Tampa, Pensacola,
and Key West as branch offices, with
sub collectors to be appointed by the
collector of the port of Jacksonville.
The injustice and unreasonableness or
this arrangement will be seen when 1t
is known that as a matter Of fact the
customs collections for the Tampa
office for the year 1912 amounted to
$500, 900, while the collections of the
Jacksonville office amounted to but a
paltry SIS, 900. Tampa has every rea
son to feel insulted.-Palatka News.
