We learn that the indictment of about

The Truth About Civil Service

CIV. +. Sutton in National Republican,
The civil service method of filling
public office may easily become as
great a menace to government as any
spoils and plumber system that could
be devised. and it is beginning to be
lelt among students of government,
and men and women of all parties
that civil service is being overdone in
the United States.
Hundreds of offices in Washington
and elsewhere throughout the country
are being filled by barnacles that have
fastened themselves upon the ship Of
state through the medium of the civil
/ service. once in office and without
the fear of being removed, these men
and sometimes wOmen-become lazy,
Indifferent and wholly incompetent,
with the result that the taxpayers and
the public in general are robbed just
as surely as though they had placed
defaulters in office
There are a few things that keep an
employe up to the mark as well as the
fear of losing his job When a man
knows that he must rely upon his own
ability and that alone to make good.
he will do his best in the work that
has been assigned to him, if he
amounts to anything but if he is not
of any value he is very properly kicked

But filling our government offices |
with bureaucrats is only another way |
of robbing ourselves. The man who
has a lifetime job so long as he carries
ont the routine of that job is not likely
to put forth any great effort to give

What manufacturer or what mer-

REAL ATTITUDE OF FlLIPINOS

Periodically some democrat offers a
resolution in congress demanding
withdrawal Of Uncle Sam from the
Philippine islands and the recognition
OF their independence, accompanied by
numerous whereases setting forth the
settled and stable conditions and the
dissatisfaction of the Flipinos with
American policies These attempts to
force recognition probably emanate
from group of propagandists with
headquarters in Washington whose
literature helps fiji the editorial waste

these activities to create public senti-
ment in favor of recognition and the
charge that the Filipinos mistrust the
Americans and are hostile to the pres
