Senator Harrison Charges President

Washington, Feb. 11-President Hard

a postmaster at Marion, Ohio. was at
tackled In the senate today by Senator
Harrison. Mississippi as an attempt by
the President TO destroy the civil SER
vice system at one swoop." Harrison
announced he would demand the senate
consider the nomination in open session
instead of in secret as is customary.
''I will oppose it, said Harrison. 'It
is the beginning of the destruction of
civil service. Like a clap Of thunder
out of clear sky the president stamp
ed civil service under his feet in maxi
ing this appointment by executive or
der. 1t is farce the way postmasters
are being named throughout the coun-
try. If you haven't a Republican pull
now you have no chance to get job.
in spite of civil service"
Harrison said the civil service COM
mission overturned its own rules, dis
regarded the results of examinations
and the reports of inspectors and did
this ION orders from higher up"
Harrison also criticized inclusion in
the Independent appropriation bill of an
amendment permitting Harding's allow
ance of $25.000 for travelling expenses
to be spent also for official entertain
ment." Senator Warren of Wyoming,
explained that was to allow Harding
more latitude under the heading "tra-
yelling expenses" than heretofore ac-
corded presidents.

PUBLIC OFFICE a PUBLIC TRUST

In view of the questioning that has
arisen regarding the morals of those
in authority in Mississippi due to
certain serious charges made thru more
than one administration it seems to us
the voters should look carefully into
the character of candidate before they
vote for him for any office. His per-
sonal private life is, in the very ma
ture of the case, bound to reflect upon
his public service and the people he
represents.
Hosting immortality into office makes
it just that much more an~offense be-
cause the record belongs to the public
and it is the peoples privilege to know
the conduct of their political choice, and
it he is guilty of criminal accusations,
or his conduct warrants them, know
ledge of these things is bound to lower
moral standards and exert baneful in
fiuence in many directions as it is dis
seminated among the people.
A man who is not capable of realiz-
ing his responsibility in public office
and is not ambitious to honor his state
or county or town with a high and
honorable service should not be consid-
cred at the polls.
A public office is public trust.
