" I have heen up In St. I_wrence County for Btv

Krorn what I heard there, I think thi Demoeratle

and tho pension vetoes of President Cleveland. I
elld not find an old soldier, either Democrat or Re?
publican, who wa* going to vote for Cleveland- Al
for the tariff, that wa* plainly losing us a large
number of votes. Then the eulogies of Cleveland In
the Canadian newspapers are hurting us. An Irish
American, for Instance, would have some business In
Canada, and would no sooner ero** the line than he
would find Englishmen praising Cleveland and lay?
ing uhat the Mills bill supported ty him was the
greatest piece ot statesmanship of modern times.
Mell, no Irish-American likes to hear f_at kind of
talk, and I think lt hurts BB."

**?* Mr. Cleveland gained the Presidency as a
Reformer of the Civil Sorvice. If he then de
sirod the chango of tariff he now urges, he de?
ceived the people about it. The votes which
turned the scale were "Lt.ai nod Ky his rxplioit
promises that abuses in the Civil .-service should
bs ('"rrectorl, that appointments should lie
made for merit only, and that qualified and
faithful officers should not he removed for par?
tisan reasons. In his letter rf acceptance, Au
gu.st l*, 1881, he said:
The selection and retention of subordinates in
Government, employment should depend upon
their ascertained fitness end the vu lu.- of their
work, nnd they should neither i*e expected nor
allowed to do un-iuesTinniih1.- party mb visa.
In ease nf his election, he declared that ****>
form should prevail, sn that:
Tha unseemly scramble for pince under the
Government, with tlie consequent Importunity
which embitter! official lif". will rcn^o: nnd th**
publio. depart*-oeata will not he filled hr those
who cone.-ii.- it to !k- their fir^T duty to .-nd the
flirty to winch they owe Their plane*
Tn hi*i lc*!tor to Mr. Curti*. I)--ceml'0r -">.
1881, h.* said:
The lessons of tho pBSl ihoald >** unlearned,
ami nieh offi-tala, ns well aa their Bneoesaora,
should be tiiu.'ht, that efficiency, Btneae and de?
votion to public duty ar** rh.' Conditions of th*ir
conti nun nee io pu i*1io place, and thnt the quiet
und unobtrusive exercise of laffivfaual politic*]
rights is tbe reasonable measure of their partly
?erv! ce.
To show that he thoroughly understood the
pernicious tendencies which he pledged hiin
lelf to resist and OTSrooiDS, he (leeland in his
letrer of acceptance :
When we consi'ler The patronage of this crrent
office. Tin- allurementa of power, the temptation
t*) retain public pince one.- gained, an*i. more
than .iii. the avaintbilit-y a party linds io un In?
cumbent whom a horde of offlce-hoMera, with a
4ea! bora of iienefirs received, and faotaicd bp
the ho|j?- of favors vet to come, r.r,me| ready to
old with money nnd trained political service, we
reeogni/.e In tlie eligibility of the President for re?
election a ui"M serious unger.
How have these pledges h<*<*n kept1 Tho
President has become a candidate for re?
election. But has he purifiod tho puhlie ser
vieo? Has ho boon fnithful lo Civil Sell iee
Reform, which moans, according to " The Xew
Tork Times" (May 31. 1884 ,
The essential principle of reform is the absolute
abolition of petrona**, the complete and per
manent separation of the po bli 0 -nice, i_ its
administniri _? ^ranchos, from politics.
In the fellowing pages. evidence regarding
tho actual conduct of the President and his ex?
orcise of the appointing and removing power
is presented. It i-* eviclenoe mainly from Dem?
ocratic sources. Out of 1,048 editorials or
dispatches quoted, only 21 !? are from Tnr.
TRI-OrTE and all Other Republican journals;
more than throcr-uryTors aro fr**m papers
which are now supporting Air. Clevelsad for
n-etoetion. While great care has been taken
to omit statements bv these supporters of the
Administration which wore afterward found
erroneous, ir is possible rhat. in semi" Instances
out of so many, Batisfactory corrections have
been overlooked, and if in any case this luis
happened, Tnr. Tkim'ne wiU promptly pub?
lish s correction.
It appears that in seventeen eases the Civil
Serries law has boon directly violated by ap
pointmenta and in seven by removsls; that the
intent of the law has been violated in nine
other appointments gpecified and in sixty-five
rem* vals, besides 886 cases in which the fa. is
without namos ar*- given. Arr. of offensive
partisanship by *.(lina's of Mr. Cleveland's se.
lection are specified in 1 "1 esses, while many
othera are described. But it is within the
personal Imowledjte of every in'clligont citi?
zen tha' the entire anny of officials is ga actively
at work in the cause of party as ir ever was ii,
rhe days of pierce and "lucinnan. before Civil
Service Reform was ondertsken. < if-k**-! stat**
ments more than a year BRO sh.,wed thal above
four-fifths of the officials under Preaidenl
Cleveland had leon changed during his Ail
ministration, so that Ja AugtisT. l*--,;, the
resolutions of the National Civil Service Kc
fpirm League declared:
The chanire in the unclassified 'lvil service js
so great as to forebode it* 'i.:nple.<* pun isan r>
eonstrnction by the eWc of the Administration.
The changes during the past year have sub?
stantially finished this "complete partisan n
constnicrion'': undoubtedly much m*'re Utan
nine-tenths of rhe officials are pow men se?
lected by Mr. Cleveland. and Klected becanse
they are Democrats. Mori hare been un?
