the extremely unusual weather condi-
tons which have saturated the wheat

absolutely necessary in order to save

any administration policy in reviving the old
morbund system of securing designations by
petty blackmaii, because the administration al
ready has enough disappointments to explain
without adding the suggestion that it is trying to
defeat the civil service law and regulations by in
direction.
If Maj. Sylvester not efficient and patri-
otto in command of the police department, he
should have been removed, but that action should
have been taken only after full investigation that
the citizens OF the District might know the source
and purpose of small talk and malicious gossip.
So it should be with other officials when malici-
Gus gossip is deliberately used to separate pat
riotic and efficient officer from the public service,
we ought to know who is manipulating the ma
chine which grinds out that gossip. In this in
stance it is the Times own suggestion that Of
fcials must resign whenever there is small talk
and malicious gossip, and it is also the medium
through which the gossip is circulated. Since the
developments in the of Maj. Sylvester and
the Times assumption of full responsibility for
forcing him out it ought to be matter of public
regret that the major did not stand pat for the
purpose OF disclosing the inner and secret work
ings OF this system that once became stencil in
the nostrils of the whole nation.

An Official Controversy.

1t i, not at all likely that the President OF the
United States is ever to be confronted with the
question OF the efficiency the noncficiency OF
tho Excisc Board OF the District of Columbia.
Should the proposition ever be presented to him.
it is not TO be conceived that he will be influenced
by the trivial arguments for against the issu-
OF licenses for certain establishments in the
city OF Washington
That the members OF the Excise Board may
have full faith in a Gcntleman's agreement to re-
sign on the part OF a contemporary OF The Herald.
this newspaper calls their attention to how it
kept faith with Maj. Sylvester. No organ OF pub
Lefty gave more attention to the small talk and
malicious gossip about the police department than
did the Washington Times, at the same time ad-
vi>inG the superintendent to resign, and when he
asked for retirement newspaper gave that Of
fetal higher praise for his long. faithful unselhsh
and patriotic service to the District.
1t is not made clear whether in this advice TO
public officials the Times acted in intermediary
capacity for the White House as it eo-operated
with the Treasury Department little more than
a year ago to relieve the District from financial
distress; but whatever the commission Of our
contemporary, it has adopted a system which,
while not new had been permitted to decline since
Congress enacted civil service laws, and half a
dozen Presidents insisted their enforcement.
The old plan with each administration
to start small talk and malicious gossip about
public officials, and then suggest designations as
the way TO avoid Investigations and removals.
That system placed government in the hands OF
| scandalmongers, and that was one of the short
comings of the system which led to the civil
service laws and regulations, that there might be
some protection for honest efficient, self-sacri6c-
, ing and patriotic public servants
We regret to see pur contemporary trying to
revive the old system of intimidation by malicious
gossip. and that it has succeeded in the case OF
Maj. Sylvester. We sincerely hope that the Wash
ington Times does not represent the President OF
