istration nifty years ago. under President
:. Cleveland, would play
merit system havoc with the civil
Maintained. service system by util-
izing all public ap-
pointments as political spoils, proved un-
warranted. The President proceeded TO
maintain the merit system and his reor-
ganization Of the Civil Service Commis-
sion was to that effect. The Star Of
November 10, 1885, says:
1.-THE new Civil Service Commission
starts on sensibly by ef1ecting an organi-
zation In the ordinary American way by
electing officers. 1t was one Of the
crotchets Of the old board that all the
members were on an ofncial equality.
So far as q presiding omcer became
necessary in their deliberations, the COM
missioners filled the place in turn. This
was q clumsy plan and the new board
does well to discard it.
TN other respects the new commits
sion shows an inclination to remodel its
rules in the light Of experience 50 as to
meet all legitimate objections to the
civil service law. And it is by such
changes Of detail rather than by revo-
lutionary methods Of repeal that the
operations Of the commission will be
affected. Even the New York Sun, which
may be relied on to fight the new law
for all it is worth, confessed yesterday
that it was idle to talk about the repeal
Of the Pendleton law In view Of the fact
that the Senate and the President would
be sure to oppose any such efforts.

since. The Star Of
November u, 1885, says:
"The new Pension Once Building,
from its size and elevated position,
mounts up in q way to command OBJ
servation. 1t Is Of the barn-style OF
architecture, designed to give the most
space within its walls at the least cost
for construction. AS IN this structure,
however, three immense barns are placed
criss-crosSed one above another, there
seems to be considerable space lost
under the steep-pitched roof Of the top
barn. If available space and cheapness
Of construction, without regard to archi-
tectural appearance are to be considered
IN the erection Of Government buildings.
it Is suggested that the hat-roof &C.
tagonal, or railroad round-house style OF
architecture, would afford the maximum
OF room at the minimum Of cost. But
If the country Is too poor to consider
the matter Of beauty, grace or dignity
in its public buildings here, 1t should at
least place its plain, cheap structures In
some inconspicuous position where they
will not challenge criticism"

Louisiana is Southern State only once
represented on the court. but then with
such distinction as to warrant pride In
1894 Edward Douglas White Of Louisiana
was appointed as associate justice. In
1910 he was elevated to the position Of
Chief Justice of the United States and
by q Republican President. Mr.. Taft.
Chief Justice White was the only Roman
Catholic ever to be named to this high
post.
Another State only once represented Is
Mississippi. Here, too, we find remark
able man. In 1857 Lucius Quintus Gin.
cinnatus Lamar was elected from Mis-
sissippi to the House Of Representatives.
He left the halls of Congress in 1860 to
join his Confederate countrymen. He
rose to the rank of colonel in the Con-
federate Army and also was employed in
the diplomatic service Of the Confederate
cause. He was sent on a mission to
France, England and Russia in an at.
tempt to gain the support of those ma
tions for the Confederacy. After the war
and this is an interesting example Of
how the American democracy has func-
tioned-Mr. Lamar again, in 1873. was
elected to Congress, then to the United
otdGcS 6cldCe III 1ot'. 4Hc year 1000
sees him Secretary Of the Interior, and
in 1888 he Is elevated to the supreme
bench.
Politics is presumed to have no part
in affairs Of the Supreme Court, and.
once a man is on the bench, immediate
political questions are non-existent.
Broad general trends in the evolution of
the Nation may very gradually be recog-
nized, but there are no partisan politics.
However, 1t is customary. although by
no means invariable, for Republican
Presidents to appoint Republicans to the
Supreme Court and for Democratic Pres.
idents to name Democrats.

Install A Rural
Ambulance Service
Will Equip Sub-stations AT
Conowingo, Easton, Salisbury,
Frederick And Waldorf

The Inauguration of an ambulance
service by the State police for per-
sons in rural sections needing quick
hospital treatment was announced by
Maj. ]. Purdon Wright.
Maj. Wright, superintendent Of the
State police, said plans call for the
purchase of five new automobiles,
which can be converted quickly into
ambulances. Sold in the low-cost field,
these cars, he explained, are so con-
structed that through the removal Of
a front seat a specially constructed
stretcher-cot can be brought into
service.
He said five such machines had
been ordered and will be placed on
duty at the State police sub-stations
at Conowingo, Easton, Salisbury,
Frederick and Waldorf.
! They will be held at these stations
for such general duties as answering
emergency calls, transporting prison
ers, carrying supplies and routine
service between calls for ambulance
duties.

Chevrolet Dealers
Vote To Continue
Newspaper Advertising

Seventy-four Of ChevroIet's LEADING
dealers, who together accounted for
the sales of 3S,116 new cars and
trucks last year, attending a two-dav
conference at Detroit on sales and
advertising plans for the remainder
of 1885, went on record as unanimous
ly endorsing the Chevrolet Motor
Company's decision, announced at the
closing session, to retain the news
paper as the backbone of the comp
any's advertising media.
The announcement that Chevrolet
intended to adhere to this time-tried
policy was made by c. P. Fisken, ad-
vertising manager, who spoke in en-
thusiastic terms of the results the
company has obtained through news
paper advertising in which it has long
been conspicuous leader.
eve are constantly on the lookout
for any means of making our appeal
to the public more effective said
Mr.. Fisken, "but up to date we have
found nothing to compare with the
newspaper as the main highway for
our advertising expenditure"
The days sessions were in tie ma.
ture Of round-table discussions, and
the subject was referred to the DEAL
ers for expressions Of opinion. Al the
close of the discussion, which was
strongly in support of the plan, the
dealers voted it their unanimous en-
dorsement.
