BINGHaMS DISLIk r. OF CIVIL SERVICE

Senator Binzham's most recent speech in the Senate against the civil seryicc principle and his lauda- ton of Connecticut as state that wishes 10 have nothing in common with this enlightened method of dealing with officials, was his sec ond attempt to enlighten the upper house regarding the advantages of party politics
 One is reminded of the words put into the mouth of Senator Thomas Wharton" by William Allen White in the latter's story, The Mercy of Death" one Of the notable poHti cal stories in the volume Strata gems and spoiIs."
 Senator Wharton" vas being in teryiewed by a reporter and one can easily imagine the fctional sen ator to be Senator Bingham;
 Do you want 10 talk civil
 service. sanator?" questioned
 the reporter.
 q dunno --- anything wrong
 with this: say that the thing
 that threatens this country Is
 political apathy. Citizens pay foo much attention to business
 and not enough to politics and then ask how you're going 10 get more interest in politics
 by taking all the offices aaay
 from inc people and putting
 them in cold storage. Get my idea 2"
 The reporter nodded.
 Well. if you think it's any
 good. trim if mp. Tell 'em it's all right to holler about a pub
 lie office being a private snap. but ask how the registration is
 going 10 be kept up in the ward if tho mansions in the
 skies arc 10 be tho only re-
 ward for the fellows who drive the hacks"
 Senator Bingham has tho same ancient and dscrepit ideas about civil service as this fiction senator had; and no doubt for the same reason.- But he puts 1t in more subtle fashion:
 We believe in the form of government known as party government, with party re- 4ponsibilly; but if the party in
 power has its hands tied hy reason of 8 so-caIlod civil sery- ice law which prevents a man from being discharged except
 upon specific causc. the party IS unable 10 enforce the law and @iya efficient government" Senator Bingham made an earlier sprcch of similar senti- mrufs In April He evidently thinks one or his main functions in Wash inglon is 10 teach recalcitrant sen ators inc iniquttias Of civil service. No doubt, if he had his way. every government clerkehip would be , prey for party regularity, and every post office worker, from let ter carrier 10 superintendent of mails. would b. subject 10 dis charEe for political non- conformity,
