economy refuse to take the children
from the institutions and give them a
home.
This is far from being the case,
speaking generally. although the eX-
sminers entered on their duties with
this idea in their minds. and seemed
to feel that their retention in Office
depended upon the record of dis
charges they brought about. and hence
little pressure" OH the relatives of
the children was eXcusable.
Is II the irony of fate or of politics
that the department which. above all
others in the city government, should
have reflected the spirit of the present
administration should be the one which
has slgnally failed to gauge the public
conscience. and has made enemies i'm
quarters where support and encourage
ment could otherwise have been count
cd upon?
1t is quite true, the: public desires
that the funds appropriated for the re-
lief of the poor should be economically
administered, but. while insisting upon
economy. the same public will not
tolerate narshness TO the unfortunates
who ara obliged TO ask public aid.

AT VARIANCE WITH THE MAYOR
Social Worker Questions His Views on
Civil Service Controversy.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Without venturing an opinion
upon the motives behind the present
inquiry into the local Civil Service
Commission. it is clear that his honor
the Mayor is not well served by some
of his subordinates I'm the statement
which he handed out few days ago,
according 70 your report. he said: Let
me tell you, in the first place. that it
was brand new work which these
people were appointed TO do. OF char
acter which had never been done in
the Department of Charities before, re-
quirng very delicate touch, under
standing and sympathy The fact is,
as every one who has had anything to
do with institutional care Of children
in this city knows. this inquiry, or re-
investigation. has been made annually
for the last dozen years at least.
In past years. especially during the
winter season, the force of examiners
assigned to current work was unable
10 keep up with the food of appica-
tions for the commitment of children.
The reinvcstiga cations were. therefore.
sometimes suspended for time. and
the examiners in that department
placed on the new Investigations. For
the last two or three years this step
has apparently not been necessary TO
any great extent. so that the annual
demonstrations Of the homes of the
children VINO were public charges have
been made with regularity and care.
The new staff Is at an immense disad-
vantage IN this work, as compared with
the regular examiners. Few of them
have had any real experience. Their
knowledge Is merely book knowledge.
and they know nothing Of the previous
histories of the families whose chill
dren they are anxious 10 discharge.
The children committed 10 public in
stitutions may be roughly placed in
two groups those who are friendless
owing 20 the death or chronic vicious
habits Of their parents. and those
whose parents arc living but arc un-
able, by po.erty due 70 illness or lack
OF employment, 70 support them for
the time being. Perhaps Brooklyn has
larger number o. those transient
cases than any other borough. owing 70
its very large labor;ng population and
10 the poverty Of the private charitable
societies, whose funds do not permit
them to give adequate relief even 10
the deserving poor.
| think it viii be .ound that the
greater number o. children who have
been discharged by The efforts Of this
new bureau are in the transient class.

AMERICAN REVOLUTION IS OVER
A Statement of Fact, with Some Con-
cu.;on, Deduced Therefrom.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Many of your letters recall 'r-
DAYS Of the Revolution and what tEe
English did during that period ana al
later dates. also how friendly the G"f-
mans have been. Let us see: Ming
George III was a German, and nall
foolish at that. According to Amer
can history, the only prominent paI'
the Germans took in that important
struggle for freedom was TO SEND
horde of Hessians over here 10 heIp
George try and stamp oct the Sparh
of freedom then burning on TINS con
tInent. lust as Germany - trying 20
stamp out the great French Republic
to-day. Republics and democracies like
England are considered a menace by
emperors who rule by divine right.
Mr.. Bagg also complains of England
bringing indian troops into France 10
ipht the Germans. History chronicles
nothing which would lead us TO believe
that these Indian warriors have ever
been any more fiendish than the Ger
mans at the present time. During our
Civil War we armed the colored slaves
and turned them against their former
masters; during our war with Spain we
took negro regiments to Cuba TO HgAt
the Spaniards. Has war really become
such a highly eleyating occupation that
only college graduates shall be al
lowed to participate
Ali this talk about what the Eng
lish did over a hundred years ago Is
lust foolish twaddle. and If it had not
been for the French army which came
over and helped us CORVALLIS might
have decided not TO surrender at York
town, As we are told that on that tcS-
tive occasion there were seven thou
sand French and eight thousand Amerl-
cans.
No matter what George III thought,
did or tried to do the fact remains
that the English speaking race gave
the United States of America 10 the
world as a refuge TO the oppressed o.
all nations. and after reading Mr.. {. \.
Tracey's glowing account of the beau
ties of Germany and the 5umptuous
manner in which the most common
people live it is hard to figure out why
some seen million Germans found
their way over to this country, where
we can offer them nothing like what
they have been used to at home. Per-
haps il is another case of being unable
to stand prosperity.
Now. Mr.. Editor, | ask of you Cor
the benefit OF those Americans whose
ancestor came over in the Msyhower
TO print in large type across the front
page of your paper the fact that he
