Wrong.
The attempt of the partisan politi- ~
cians and partisan newspapers to cast
the blame of the present financial dis-
turbance upon the new administration
and create the impression that all
would have been v. ell had the Harrison
administration remained in power is
decidedly wrong.
It is well known that there were
symptoms of financial trouble on the
horizon a year or more ago, and that
secretary Foster resorted to various
methods and devices for mitigating the
tringency of the situation and avert-
ing a. crisis. The finances of the coun-
try were under as much strain prior to
the election as after it, and the incom-_
ing administration was simply con-
fronted by conditions that had already
perplexed and embarrassed Mr. Har-
_ rison’s.
Mr. Harrison was governed by a pa-
I triotic solicitude for the interests of
the country, and it is certain that Mr.
Cleveland is actuated by a similar high
and conservative purpose.
The difficulties of the question were
not determinable by the November
election. They would not have been
concluded had Mr. Harrison been re-
elected, and every honest citizen knows
that the attempts being made to weak-
en public confidence in the present ad-
ministration are guerrilla methods,
helping no man and no cause.
This is a time of all others when the
press and the politicians should make
common cause for the general welfare,
and there should be strong and united
efforts on all hands to strengthen the
. popular faith in the wisdom and ability
of the Government. The Government
is in good and capable hands and it is a
matter of small consequence what its
politics may be, as Democrats and Re.
publicans alike are of one mind as to
the maintenance of the public faith
and the national prosperity.
The Army of the Disappointed.
Among the shoals and quicksands
that beset the Democratic party' is the
“ army of the disappointed.” This was
a factor that the'managers of Mr. Har
rison’s campaign entirely overlooked
in making up their combinations, but
one that entered largely into his de-
feat, and. this element will always be a
menace to any political party desiring
to win the second time. Eight years
ago Mr. Cleveland desiring to burn in-
cense before the Mugwump Buddha
made but few removals and but few ap-
pointments, and when he Come up for
re-election the army of the disappoint-
ed were very poor fightero,and Mr. Hat:
rison won “ hands down.” But Mr.
Harrison made the same mistake, and
he too recruited an army of the disap- .
pointed mine own party who were
worse than“ raw recruits. This is proven
by the election returns which show
that the Harrison vote fell away more
than the Cleveland vote increased.
Voters blamed ClcVeland or Harrison
and struck them down on election day,
but their hands were tied by the civil
service law which everybody hates. but
. whichnone have the courage to core.
but, such a bugaboo- is the Mugwump
vote. 0111: young men take an interest
in politics, attend meetings, study up
on public questions, stir up the. luke-
warm, encourage the timid and win a
victory. But when they ask for recog
-, nition they are blandly informed that
the civil service law stando' 1n the way
and unless they take an examination
and their chances for on appointment
4 they must stay out 111 the wet.
Cleveland has succeeded Mr.‘
' Mr.
Harrison and is pursuing the some too-
tics that led to his own defeat in 1888'
and Mr. Ha rrison’s in 1892.
The. only. thing that may salve the
Democracy from the indifference of
the army of the disappointed is that
there will be a" new man in the. field,
which may prevent apathy from doing
its dendly work. After a while the
' young men of both of our great politi-
cal parties will see that to advance the
interests of their respective party with
the hope of being in any way identified
with its administration is a waste of
time so long as civil service reform is
policy of any administration.“ The
Democrats have great hopes of fasten-
ing tariff reform upon the country, but
in 1896 they will be laid out, as were
the Republicans last full, and that too
by the indifference of the young men
of the party, who will probably go
fishing when the next presidential elec-
tion day rolls round. In 1888 Norwnlk
gave Mr. Harrison 350 majority, but
how many Republicans or their friends
obtained any recognition? Last fall
able showing, but how many of them
will get any consideration from the ap-
pointing powers? They may apply
but only to be :told that there is but
one doorway to an office now-asdayS—i
civil service reform. The outlook that
can is encouraging inasmuch as the
army of the disappointed is now being
recruited from- the ranks of the Dem--
ocracy. This. condition of affairs is
strong evidence of the inexplicable in-
fluence of the MugvtumpWhose num-
bers ‘are'contemptible, but who gets
the obeisance of both parties. . ,
If the young men of this country de-t
sire to hold positions of ho'nor and
trust under the administration of their
choice they must combine and demol-
ish the civil service law, a law so ridic-
‘ulous that its'own father-was ashamed
of it and induced a fellow member to
introduce it on the floor of Congress.
Had Major McKinley first repealed
the civil service law and thereby given
the young Republicans 11 chance to. ‘h
identify themselves with the adminis-'
tration, and led others to believe that-
opportunities would open from time to
time, the policy of pretection would
more trash alonrrside of the civil sore,

tariff and introduce a. new policy, but
he will hardly get his law in wOrking
all his work, and they will be plotted 1n
polities to the Mugwump's, who claim
to be able to hasten the millenium, and
betske themselves to other callingS
We think it wrong, however,- that our
the civil service law as it clearly is.
But the civil service Commission has, .' 1
come to stay. That 835, 000. per annum- _

the institution, and make it extremely
desirable to professional reformers,
who' in their annual reports can smesr,
themselves and the Commission all,
over with tafl‘y an inch thick. .
Great is civil service reform, but it
means a new president every four years,
and radical and disturbing influences
in our tariff policy.
' Froze Them Out.
Henry L. Goodwin of East Hartford
told the railroad committee Tue'Sday
afternoon that it would be a. matter of
vestigate the lensing by the New Y ork,
New Haven & Hartford Railroad Com;
pany of the Housatonic Railroad. He
intimated that‘ by acquiring a majority
of the stock of the Housatonic the New
York road had leased the other to itself
and then froze out the minority stock—
holders exactly as was done' In the case
of the Connecticut Western.
The hearing was on a resolution to
invest'gate the lease in question, which
had been referred to the committee
without any instructions whateVer.
Mr. Goodwin denied being a party to
it and as the person who drew up the
resolution did not appear, nothing
came of the matter. The Hon. L nde
Harrison and the Hon. Henry C.
insOn both frequently crossed swords
with Mr. Goodwin during the hearing.
