RETURNING TO spo1Ls SYSTEM.

If there is any sentiment left in
this country in favor of the civil SER
vice method of selecting Federal
employees, it is high time that 1t
we're manifested to prevent if pos
sible return to the old spoils sys-
tenn with all of it's attendant evils of
barter and sale and political cor
ruption, is the opinion on the part
of many who have supported the
principle of civil service in order to
obtain efficiency in government and
cleaner politics.
The charge has been made and
there is ample evidence to sustain it
that offices have been bartered and
sold by so-called Federal referees. y
1t is notorious that appointees for
postmasterships are selected upon
the recommendations of political
leaders and not upon their civil SER
vice records.
BY executive orders President
Harding has nullified the civil SER
vice in the matter of post Office APP
pointments, and has not only per-
mitted the least capable candidate
to be named by political influence
but he has himself trampled the civil
service regulations under foot by the
personal appointment of personal
friend in the post Office at Marion. D.
Both political parties in their
campaigns have for years declared
in favor of civil service. They have
declared that they believed in the
efficient enforcement of the civil
service law, and their candidates
have promised to enforce it. Demo-
Gratis have not forgotten the success
full campaigns Of Grover Cleveland
in behalf of civil service reform.
Until this administration the en-
forcement of the civil service law
was fairly satisfactory, but now ap-
parently it is held in contempt by
Republican politicians from the
President down.
There are exceptions, however, as
shown by recent statement of
Senator Norris (Rep., Neb.), in dis
cussing President Harding's appoint
ment of postmaster at Marion.
He said:
II do not believe President Hard
ing is justified in setting it (the
civil service law aside for the APP
pointment of postmaster at Mar
ion, o. The post Office at Marion
o.. is not any different from the post
office at any other place. Because
President Harding happened to live
in Marion, because that was his
home, does not give him any greater
moral right to set aside the law or
the rules that provide for the nom
partisan selection of postmaster In
Marion. 1t gives him no more
right than it would to set it aside in
Philadelphia, New York, or in the
city of Washington. do not think
he was justified in doing it, and
would like to see in writing the rea-
sons he could give for doing it. The
appointing of a postmaster to that
Office is not his private business"

Though the majority of the Pantages

ater Saturday night were artists of
merit in their respective roles, that
ranged from comedy to grand opera,
the vital spark that was needed to
put go" into the entire performance

weather or the desire for something in

the cause. but little enthusiasm was
aroused in the crowded house.

Worries Danish King.
'aThe first imperial travels were to
st. Petersburg, Vienna, Copenhagen,
London. In Copenhagen the emperor
declared that he liked it there so much
that he would return every summer.
The Danish king almost fell from his
chair. If one considers that Denmark
is but small country and that the
king Of this minor state has only linn
tied means at his disposal, one will
understand his dismay. In considera-
tion of the Danish poverty the czar,
whenever he visited his father-in-law,
paid literally the cost incurred by him
and his retinue. The German emperor,
however, whose retinue consisted of 60
heads, never spoke of money. He
rather asked military parades, warship
salutes, gala opera, banquets and the
like. No wonder that panic broke
out when the puffed-up Berliners an
nounced themselves. Subsequently,
whenever the kaiser proposed a visit
to Copenhagen the Danish ambassador
in Berlin was directed to call attention
to the sickness of the queen, who
needed rest, and ask that the visit
should be postponed.
Gear Alexander was more out
spoken in his refusal of Williams Wis
its. He, to be sure, had no reason to
fear that the Berliners would eat him
poor and bare, as at the court Of Co.
penhagen, nor could he allege as an ex-
cuse that the czarina was not strong
enough to stand the excitement Of
such visits. The czar simply wrote to
his Berlin ambassador that he refused
to be disturbed in his retirement by
that young man Of Berlin. When Bis

The appearance of this astonishing
publication in one of the strongest
Prussian monarchial organs has
aroused speculation upon it's possible
connection with the Forthcoming Sec
ond marriage of tie ex-kaiser, to
which most of his family, and espe.
cially his eldest son, the former crown
prince, are known to be violently op-
posed. There is even gossip that a
Hohenzollern family council may de-
clare the ex-kaiser non compos mentis,
and therefore incapable of reclaiming
the throne, whereupon the succession
would pass to the crown prince.
