A Cordial Welcome to Everybody
The Penn's Grove record., 1921-05-13

melee lent color to the already un-
favorable impression of him in the
public mind.
When in the midst of the fight and
a losing fight, Garfield was shot, the
American people revolted at the
thought that Arthur and the "Stal-
warts" shoeld profit by the assassina-
ton. The public mind revolted also
at the prospect of a political boss en-
throned in the White House, with his
motley following about him.
That popular picture of Arthur, as
a city politician out of the pages of
Puck, was distorted and untrue, simply
because the background was omitted
from it. The real, the native character
of the man had been shaped in sur
%roundings very different from those in
which the country found him when he
first came under its attention. Born
in Vermont to a Baptist minister, a
nan Of education and high principles,
who had come over from Ireland and
who soon afterward settled in New
York state, Arthur had grown up in
village parsonages, where the living
was plain and the thinking high.
When the great test came and he
stood silently for three months in the
shadow of the high office, Arthur found
himself, and he left petty politics and
factions behind him as he entered the
White House. The public was incred-
ulous at first, but was convinced at
last that he honestly meant to be pres
ident of all the people.
Some of his old associates in ma
chine politics were as astonished at
the change that had come over their
as Falstaff and his cronies
were when Prince Hal became King
V. Not that the new president
coldly repealed the claims of friend
ship. He simply put first his obiisa-
to the whole country, though IL
cost him dear in the regard of men
like Grant and Conkling, who set him
down as an ingraie. a
why, general, if you were still
president of the New York County
committee, you would be

County Republican committee" Ar

certainly would; but since l came here

The Penn's Grove record., 1921-05-13

THE public anxiety for Garfield
= through his long battle with
death was deepened by a general dread
of the vice presidents succeeding to
the presidency. The people as a whole
knew nothing of Chester Alan Arthur.
except that he had been only lately
removed from the collectorship of the
port of New York as a machine pol
~itician, and that he had been nomi-
mated for the vice presidency as a
henchman of Roscoe Conkling.
After Arthur had been sitting in the
vice presidents chair only a little
more than two weeks, he opened a big
White House envelope one day and
flushed as he glanced at the unexpect-
ed contents-the nomination of a hated
"Half-Breed" to the cOllectorship of
the port of New York. With an ex-
cited gesture, he summoned Senators
Conkling and Platt, and the three
"Stalwarts" famed up with rage at
the challenge to them from the new
administration. When the New York
senators resigned thir seats and ap-
pealed to the legislature Of their state
TO re-elect them as a protest against
the administration, the spectacle of
the vice president descending to that
The Penn's Grove record., 1921-05-13

Tt IS n Of the pranks of fate that
l. Chester A. Arthur, whom President
Hayes put out Of the New York Gus
tom house as a spokesman and a politi-
cal boss, should find himself in the
White House seven months after
Hayes left it and conducting a reform
administration. 1t was the mandate
and lesson of Garfield's assassination
that we must get rid of factions and
spoils or the government itself might
next be struck down as its chief had
been. Arthur saw that this was the
logic of the tragedy which had thrust
him into the presidency and he did his
best to clean house.
The race for preferment had excited
an unnatural appetite for public office,
and the getting of a job vas regarded
as exhilarating sport. From police
man, fireman and letter carrier to
chiefship and consulship, every place
on the payroll of city, state or nation
went by favor. Two endless process
sions were forever moving. one made
up of those who had been turned out
or turned down, and the other of those
who were struggling to get in.
The civil service law, which was
passed in Arthur's administration. took
out of politics the departmental clerk
ships in Washington but So per cent
of the federal employees as a whole
were left under the spoils system.
Nevertheless, the difficult first step had
been taken toward the present com-
prehensive system, when all but a few
hundred of the hundreds of thousands
The Penn's Grove record., 1921-05-13

of places are open equally to self-re-
ties or politicians.
Arthur also was the useful instru-
ment in carrying forward the recon-
Citation of the sections. He was the
first president IN his generation who
made no reference in his annual mes
question. He was indeed almost the
first president in so years who felt
free to ignore the unhappy issues of
Sectionalism.
When ne stepped into the White
House Arthur found his party rent
united than it had been before in
20 years and with at least a chance
to win again in 1884. He might him
self have been the Republican NOM
inee in that year if he had O scrupu-
lousy refused to take an active part
In promoting his candidacy.
He looked as we'll as acted the presi-
dent. The first city man in a line of
rural or small town men, Arthur was
the best dressed mar TO sit in the chair
since Washington, and perhaps the
handsomest, with a tall, graceful fig
ure, the manners of the great world
and a grave but easy courtesy.
Although a widower president. his
sister, Mrs. McElroy, was a charming
mistress of the White House and under
them the social life of the mansion
took on a more sumptuous tone. His
son and namesake was away at school
much Of the time, but his little daugh-
ter, Nellie Arthur, lit up the house
hold with her song and laughter.
Mrs. Arthur died only in the year be-
fore her husbands unexpected rise to
the presidency, and her absence from
his side was a haunting sorrow to Ar
thur.
Declining to remove the collector Of
the port of New York, whom Garfield
had appointed, against his protest, he
ever permitted that ~officeholder to
leave his post and oppose him in the
contest at the national convention.
No other president has done so little
as Arthur did to obtain a second term.
1t was well. not only for the sake Of
the high example he set, but for his
OWE sake also. Arthur's health was
not equal to the strain of another
administration and anothe. Il III in
the White House, where he lived not
wisely but too well. In less than two
vears after leaving The presidency, fol-
owed by the good will of all the pee
pie, he was dead of apoplexy.
