which the business of the government
would be suspended st. least in port, and
the reupportionment bill which has us
yet received consideration in neither
house, but which the Republicans in both
houses have said must be passed at this
session. Then there are muny measures
of importance on the calendars which
have missed one house and are therefore
half through the legislative journey.
lull» That Are Half “'ay Through.
The most important of tbcae is the fed‘
erol elections bill which paused the house
at the tint session, mid which was resisted
in the sensu- bv the Democrats so firmly
that it \vns necessary for the Republicans
toagree ton postponement of its consid-
eration in order to bring about the passage
of the tariff bill and tin adjournment. of
the first session. 'iitrre are also on the
calendar of the senate the national bunk-
nrptcy bill which is being pushed by the
representatives of the commercial conven-
tion; t'lie bill to transit-r the revenue mu-
ritie service from [ill' trvusury to the navy
department, which W?!) debuted nt some
length during,' the tin: scrub)“: the bill to
discontinue flier-littugst‘ ut' the St and 83
gold pieces, tutti the (.‘ongrr lurtl bill.
These measures have ptlssmi the house.
On the house cnlendur un- Illl‘ mlmidy and
shipping hills which have pu-swl the sen-
ttle. A number of other lllt’ithtil't‘s‘ of great.
importance are on the Cfllt'li'lilra of both
houses which have received limit action in
neither.
The Federal Elections Hill.
The Republicans in the senate are
pledged to the passage of the federal e1ec~
lions bill, but it is a question in the minds
of some whether it i» possible to pass it
against the ob-trnctivt- lin"ll(‘$ of the Dem-
ocrats, and tin-u the tpits‘lloli is raised
whether there is :my party necessity forils
pussuge, now that the elections for the
Fifty-second (‘Ullgi'l‘Ns un- over. The Re
publicun senators will probably hold it
caucus during the week to determine what.
into bedorm There has as yet been no
consultation of the Republicun leaders on
this point. -
The I’enitlent'n Mei-page “end.
The first day of the session this princi-
pally devoted to the receipt. of the presi~
dent's message. which was read at length
in each house It is not unlikely that to-
mormw the lions» t'lllllllllilt‘l‘ oil uppropri~
lions will be ready to l't‘pul‘l. one or more
of the Annual appropriation bills. The
pension bill and the fortification bill will
be the first to come up for cumirlerutiou.
What will be tlune In push the opprepriu
lion bills forwnrii will be. determined in
caucus The Republican caucus has also
to determine upon it pmttuuster {or the
house, the other having been declared vu~

port of the civil service commission vriu
nude public todIy, and states that the
classified service has grown so In to include
at present more than 30,000. Considerable
space is devoted: to the question of re-
mnvals in the elIlelied service for partisan
reasons, and figures are given which show
thatduring the first year of Mr. Cleve
land’s administration between 7 Ind 8 per
cent. of the appointments made during the
previous administration were removed or
resigned, and of these who came into de-
partmentul service through civil service
examinations during Mr. Cleveland’s ad-
ministration, it little more than 8 per wot.
were retrieved or resigned during the first
year of the present administration.
Commenting on this ditference of bare-
ly one~bnlf of l per cent. in removals
during tbetlrst year of the opposing ad-
ministrations, the commission says: “It is
so small that it. may be entirely disre—
garded, for it is likely to have arisen from
other than political causes. When only 8
per cent. of the appointees of one adminis-
tration are separated from the seviee dur-
ing the first. year of n succeeding adminis-
tration, it is safe to say tint political con-
siderations have practically disappeared
as factors in making removals in the
classified service of the departments at
“hashing '. . Doubtless in a. force of 8,000
employes. . .iere changes are continually
being made, some of these changes are
made for improper reasons, but this is
this of any system and of any business,
public or private."
In the customs Ind postal services, the
result is less satisfactory. “Comparing"
the report says, “the percentages of re-
movals in the classified service in each
postollice with the number of removals
made in the unclussltied and excepted
places, the difference is astonishing. DJ
one case the percentage ranges (mm 3 to
28; in the other from 46 to over 90, and the
average is about seven times as great.

the low as it is among (lithe who are pro-
tected by the luw.
“It would be dimcult to advance any or—
gumeut which would show more conclu'
sively the good ett’ect that the law has in
preventingiu the classified service clean
sweeps and removals for political pur-
poses' The portions of the civil service
law interdictiug political assessments, the
report says, have not entirely stopped the
evil, but have undoubtedly much abated it.
Of the general result of the operation of
the civil service law, the report says: "Act-
ual experience for seven years lius shown
that it produces on the whole a better gov-
ernmental mlriiiuistrntiou thou does the
putronage system, and it immeasurably
boners the tone of political life by making
the mass of government cmployes simply
public servants and not adherents of the
party in power, organized into disciplined
bodies for it.» support. and straining every
effort to secure llh continuance and su—
premncy."
