Representative Fess Charges
Democrats With Disregard
' of Classified Service Law.
PREFERENCE ON INERT"
NO LONGER RULE, HE SAYS
Criticises Presidents Change in Atti-
tu1e Since He Was Officer in
Civil Service League.

Severe criticism of the Democratic
Merit system is made by Representa-
tive Fess of Ohio, republican. and pub
lshed by him in an extended speech
in the Congressional Record. Repre-
sentative Fess declares that the civil
service system is being gradually dis
fcarded for spoils system, and offers
considerable detail to show the legisla-
ton and orders under which the civil
service has been ignored. The present
attitude toward the service. says Mr..
Tess. is to get what YOU can and can
.what you get and this he offers as
comparison to the saying of Presi-
dent Cleveland. Public Office is pub
lie trust.
Representative Fess traces the his
tory of the civil service commission
for thirty years more, to point out
the non-partisan character of the ad-
i,ministration of the service during
Jprevious administrations.
During the years from 1889 to 1918. -
says Representative Fess, the civil
service commission gained a real place
as one of the governments bureaus.
1t was the one commission that stood
for efficiency rather than partisan ad
ADMINISTRATION. The commission itself in
is personnel was so created. Roose-
welt. to avoid partiSanship. made it
democratic and Taft continued it so
two democratic members and one re-
spublican. There can he no suspicion
that such a comm iSsion. so constituted,
5mith purpose in creation to avoid par
tisan politics. could be prostituted for
party purposes

placed 1885 such offices within the
classified service. being those offices IN
the states north of the ONO ana east
of the Mississippi river In octoper'
1912, Taft placed 1926 offices in the
list being the remainder of this class
of offices not yet covered into the clas-
sified service.
Representative Tess points out other
notably the taking into the service OF
$1,000 skilled civilian employees OF the
navy yards. Then he says:
Another step for better service was
the effort to reach greater efhciehcE
by empowering the civil service COM

the condition of administration, ana 10

veStiEatiOnS would warrant IN iatt'
one of the dominant facts of the laSt
two administrations was bet ter citil
service. This was the status when the
former vice president of the national
civil Service League became ihe 'fiesl-
dent of the United States March 4,
1913. What has been done sine" that
day"
Displays Hand of Spokesman
The first act on this question dis
played the hand of the spokesman. 1t
was en- May :, 1913. four days over two
months after Inauguration and just
one month after the meeting of the
special session OF Congress. This act
nullitied in greater part President
TaftS extension of the civil service
rules to fourth class poStmaSte tiers.
"One month and two days later the
President reconstructed the civil serN-
ice commission, which had been two
democrats and one republican since
Roosevelt's day. by appointing two
democrats. one from Louisiana and the
other from South Carolina and one
progressive from the state of Wash
ington. 1t should be said that the
democrat from Louisiana had been APP
pointed by Roosevelt in 1906. While
the republican policy avoided the
charge of partisan control by making
the commission in its personnel ad-
verse to the party in power, the demo-
cratic policy reciprocated by removing
the only republican to make room for
man who at the time of his appoint
ment was not Il republican, whatever
he may now call himself since his
party is no more. and he cannot be a
democrat and remain on a commission
that by law must not be all OK one
party.
This administration must be judged
by the record it makes. Up to date it's
record on the civil service is as follows:
First. Numerous party declarations
demanding an adherence to the prin-
ciple of civil service.
Secondly. The head Of the party
pledged to it in his many references in
his books and his official connection
with an association devoted to the
cause nation wide in its influence
These were prior to March 4, 1918.

MOTHER FINDS SON
after LONG SEARCH
Father Stole Him, Then Was
Adopted From Home.

Webster City, Ia.-Stolen from his
ago, later placed in a children's home
in Des Moines and adopted by a fam
lily at Lehigh, David Brundage now
finds himself the heir to an estate, all
because his mother during all these
thirty years has never once ceased her
search for him.
Brundage is now thirty-two years Of
age and makes his home in Lehigh
with his foster parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Joe Brundage. Mrs. c. Thompson OF
Randall, Wash, is the mother in the
case, and q letter just received from
her by the Brundage family states that
she located her son only recently. The
mother pleads with the foster parents
to tell her something of her son and his
whereabouts. whether he is dead or
alive and if he is happy.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brundage adopted the
baby in 1887. He was healthy
youngster and grew up with the Other
Brundage children. Many people il
and about Lehigh did not even know
he was an adopted child. Every atten
ton was lavished upon him. While
young Brundage is anxious to learn all
he can of his mother and other blood
relatives, yet he signifies his intention
to remain with his affectionate foster
parents.
A. E. Watkins. a Randall (Wash.) at
torney, finally located the boy for his
mother, and a letter to him conveys
in trust for young Brundage. AS yet
however, the Brundage family has not
been appraised of the amount. 1t is like.
ly that Brundage will make a visit tc
his mother.

Foot and Mouth Disease is Close.

Platteville Witness: An outbreak of
foot and mouth disease in Lake county,
H., has been reported to the live stock
sanitary board and State Veterinarian
0. H. Eliason is anxiously waiting for
confirmation or denial by the officials of
that state. Wisconsin is free of the
disease, but Lake county, just across
the line, is altogether too close for
comfort and the Badger authorities will
not rest until they know exactly what
the situation is. Meanwhile the de-
partment will take steps to guard
against entry of the disease.

MIR Stendebach Tells His Experience.

Mr. Stendebach Tells His Experience.
The following brief account of an
interview with a Mineral Point man
over five years ago, and its sequel, will
be read with keen interest by every
citizen.
j. G. Stendebach, painter, Mineral
Point, says: II had considerable trou-
bic from weak kidneys. 1 suffered
from severe attacks of backache and
other symptoms of disordered kidneys.
The kidney secretions were unnatural
and very irregular in passage. 1 got
box of Doan's Kidney Pills at Ivey's
Drug Store and they gave me prompt
relief from the pains and aches in my
back. My kidneys were fixed up in
good shape, too" Statement given
July 26, 1900
ALMOST THREE YEARS LATER,
Mr. Stendebach said: Il have the very
same confidence in Doan's Kidney Pills
as when [ previously recommended
them. When have any slight return
OF kidney trouble, Doan's Kidney Pills
always benefit me-
Price soc, at all dealers Don't sim
ply ask for kidney remedy = get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mr.. Stendebach has twice publicly
recommended. Foster Milburn Co.,

Fox Hunting.

Belmont Success: Mr. Charley Shaw
and Harvey Rowe shot and killed d red
fox northeast of the city limits Satur-
day forenoon. Shaw had been trapping
in that neighborhood, and the animal
had first be en- caught in one of the traps
but had gotten away. With the as
sistance of Rowe's fox hound, old
"Bugle," who Notwithstanding his ad-
vanced years is always ready for a
hunt, the fox was tracked to the
Henry Poppa farm, where the last act
in the tragedy took place. He was a
fine specimen of the wipes tribe, and
measured four feet, two inches from
tip to tip The pelt sold for So.
