SATURDAY, MARCH 27, 18G9. Mhl In Retrenchment nl Reform? Thrrb is a committee o( tha State Senate at Darrisbarg wbioh is called by tbe hlgb-soand-ing title of tbe "Committee on Retrenchment and Reform," and tbe ostensible dutj of wbicb is to seek perpetually for a reformation of tbe existing abases at tbe Capitol. What snob a committee is tolerated for in such a place is a bidden mystery; and if it showed tbe least f ymptom of oarrving into effect tbe object of iU creation, we feel Bare it would speedily be abolished. As it is, it is found a pleasant recreation to bare a barring groan! in wbioh to inter tbe various buncombe measures of reform wbicb publio policy repaired shoald be from time to time Introduced. It would sever do to defeat them; so if they are in reality an improvement, tUty can be safely killed by a referenoa. Now tbe "Committee on Retrenchment and Relorm" have been oogiUUng an entire session over tbe salaries of publio officers and tbe expenses of govern meiit, and as tbe publio complaint has become a little too Btrong to be treated with contempt, kave made a report. We published a synop sis of it yesterday in oar later editions, and from it we are enabled to Judge of the nature of the reform proposed. The mountain has lieen laboring, and has brought forth a moose. Tbe report of the oommlttue, after cutting oat glittering generalities which uieao nothing, amounts simply to this: The salaries of the various publio officers ought to be cut down. "All right 1" say the people. "That sounds like reform, and deserves consider- ! tion." Now what publio ofli jrs are provided I for in this bill f "The richest, of course," say ; the people. Not at all. Poor Ignorant, men ! You know nothing of the way reforms are ; oonduoted at Ilarrisbarg, if voa suppose the ; influential are to be reached. It it the dtrlt ' and messenger of the variout departments that are t be reduced. Clerks who now work for a ; whole year for $1800 are to get $1500; those ' who get $1500, after having been in tbe ser- j vioe for years, are now to get $12X) per annum; while the $l'iO0 ones are to get $1000. S also with the messen gers. Men who devote all the year to faithful eervice are to get $700 in plase of $900. This is tbe great reform. This Is the cardinal measure whioh General Harry White has been favoring for several months. The richest offices are not touched. The fees of tbe State Treasurer are not put into th State Treasury. Tbe salaries of tbe members of the State Legislature are not cut down in proportion. Not at all. They are only made "permanent." The hangers-on around the balls of legislation are not to hi trimmed oS, as they richly deserve. The pasters and : folders are not to go uncompensated. A j change is recommended in regard to legists- : tive appropriations, but it U not toaui in tL j bill as reported. It is only the worst pail subordinates who are affected. Now let as look at the result of this jrrt "reform." It is said it will save annum. It will do no such thina. It will, at the most liberal estimate, not awo'iut to $12,000 a year. Now let as look at a-xne of those other slight leaks which are not atoppod by the oommittee in their report, and, after looking at these, we will leave it to our readers whether the retrenchment report does not "take In at the spiggot and let out at tbe bung-bole," as a homely adage has it. What wr the ex penses of the two houses of the Legislature last year? The Senate spent, as the Auditor 3eneral's report shows, tll'J.770 05; tbe House spent $233,454-51. Total legislative expense, $353,224-56. What does the committee of Oeneral White say to these figures? Is there no room for reform here? Can't more be saved than by cutting down poorly-paid clerks? In three months the Legislature speud $353,000. At that rate the annual expenses would bo $1,400,000. Why not begiu at home, Mr, Billiugfelt, and save here? Let as look at the items of these fabulous figures. The mem bers get $1000 each. The report of the com mittee recommends the continuauce of their pay at that figure. This would be $4000 a year, for they receive $1000 for three months' ser vice. Four thousand dollars a year to each member! For what? Misrepresenting their constituents, passing bad laws, and de feating or neglecting good ones! Vet $1200 U too much for a faltbtal and honest clerk! if reform don't mean buncombe, let tbe $1000 be cut down to $5WL That would be saving W,000 a year, and be a just reduction. Again, the nuleuje to the,Kuators last year was $3547 and to the luembe'rs $7304, total $10,855. At every man of tbeui rides on a free pass, and don't speud one cent for travel, we think that tLU suut could be dUpeused with. In fact, if pravtioal retrench Uieut is tueaut, let the mem ber ouimeuui at tke beginning and not at the wid. Tbe $200 a year saved by cutting ott the iwesftenger, who baa a large family aud wtrk all the year, is not tbe reduction the pwvple demand. No one wants au attach) to work forb-ithu a fair compensation, and the pooler aeutiweiut will not encourage such "re. Urn" 4 this. If they are going to make re iwAUMe, mt off the pasters aud folders, the IWui M.4 WU who surround tbe Capitol, -v4 (U it yet greater economy is ueededi (M el'U of erery offlcer, Juoludlug .,); ir er ten yr twenty per oeut. This it fe 4timluU aaJust the worst paid, and leave tbe members at tbe rat of $4000 a year, U aot retrenchment: It Is onjtm ard penurious dieoriininaUon. The peopl will give no credit for saob reform as thl. Whe II the Pwr te Kmlaat OfHrc II Idem T Public attention has been of late uracil occupied rn watching the action of the Sena tors and Representatives at Washington, in regard to the treatment of applicants for official positions, and of their sentiments iu regard to their right to the distribution of pa tronage. That much interest should be felt in their actions is natural, and that considerable surprise should follow the development of their opinions need not be demed singular. As we have no personal feeling iu the matter, no personal ends to subserve, nor any bitter- ntss to cause resentment, we ran a(lrd to view the claims of tbe members of Congress in the light of calm discussion aud not of feel ing. The caucus of the Pennsylvania mem ber?, we are told, agreed to ask the Pre eident to let each member who is a Republican name all the appointees to otIW in his own district, and that the Senators should name all the officers in the di. tiicts represented by Pmuivrsts, and all the general positions not located in any particular district. It such an aasvt np tion of power warranted either by preoedent, justice, or the spirit of our institutions t If it is, then we have no fault to find; but if not, then we must esteem the interfereuoe with the appointing power a great w roup, and one wLich should be disregarded by President Giant. We are tree to say that we find nowhere any ground for suck au action as that of the Pennsylvania caucus. The Con stitution of the United States deuues the duties of the several departments of government. The Executive is distinct from the Legislature, and the powers and privileges ot the one are entirely independent of tbe other. Tbe responsibilities of each are different. Mem bers of Congress are selected to legislate. They are to make tbe. laws. As the chosen representatives of the people, they should le entitled to respect: and their opiaions of men in their own district, while not con clusive, are nevertheless of vein, because of the ocntldence which the people bare repoeed in them. They therefore should be heard in all their utterances with attention. This is all they can demand. The Senators, how ever, go further thau this in their c'aim of con stitutional privileg. Ther are to advise and consent to the nomination of men to ciY.o. Tbe whole Srnate is to do this. Fat trey have nowhere the power to leave tbe a.ltic and consent to two of their number, nor have they any right, except through courtesy, to recommend any one to an appointment.. Tne Constitution is explicit: : Tte President thall tcmicate, and by and with the advice and content of the Senate shall appoint," etc. When a name comes before tLem, they have the right to reject the confirmation, but tLey have no power and no rifcht to eay to the President: "You icutt not Loioinate any one without cucfuilirg oe; if you do, we'll uyyttM tbe cor.r(nation." Tue doty of ex-cuting the laws it. vttd in tie Prudent, and in Liiu aJoie; and a tLe choice of Lis own kubisrdinaU- ik t-fcteZiUal to Lis proper rttpottibiJit, the aeievtfoju (Lou Id be abtolouJy i:t wnii Lito. fto u:u,:h for the law uu the tu jevt.

WJire, we would like to know, U there ay executive power iu aoch a proceeding ? is it not drroavry to the I'rhloVutlal dignity, aud :ab;uUUd to do away with enecullre efiicUrucy? Ajjain, it ie aubverhire of the very spirit of our institu tions. A member of Congress is aeut to Warhlngtou to legltJale for his constlluenti'., and to represent and oley them. What does he do ? lie goes and fills the district with his followers and personal friend. He has an assesHOr, with his ai-idbtarit, in every watd, aud bis subordinates iu evety pre cinct; a collector, with his score of clerks and deputies; a postmaster, with his clerks; inspectors, supervisors, aud all the other officials are named by bun. What is the result ? lie has just so many men bound to folio him and work for him, and as they live oil of him, tbey seek to secure his reuomiuation. lie makes himself the head of a band of men who live on his favor. The tiatronace of the Gov ernment is not, therefore, divided ko as to effect most good in the public service, bat so as to most strengthen the reigning prince. The people are slighted and Ignored, and the whole district, with iu 120,000 residents and 20,000 voters, circles around one man, and he a servant elected for an entirely different pur pose. All this is decidedly wrong. It is calculated to crush out all vitality in any party, and make it the follower of its members of Congress. We say, therefore, that if the claims of the Congressmen be allowed, we will have the spirit of the Constitution "ignored, and a class of henthuuen will be put in office who owe allegiance to the Congressmen alone. The same Is true of the appointments at large and the Senatorial selections. We Bay that these gentlemen were not chosen by the people to appoint. They were elected to pass laws. Had the gift of office been their object, the same selections would not have been made, and many a member who writes himself "M. C." would Lave been denied that privi lege. We chose General Grant to xaske the nomination ol the office-holders. On him rests tbe reepooaiblllty of a proper election. If bad men are put In, be will be held reeponai We, and not tbe Congressmen. He should re member thia, and also remember that the people look to him for an efficient execution of the laws. We have spoken freely, because we feel, as cilisens, that a danRtrona precedent is posslblv abont to be esUbKehed, and one wbioh will ignore the popular voice, and be an injury to tbe at!nilultratiou and to tbe public service. Sw(r!n. Snatoh CoNi.t., U will be remembered, is tbe member of the State Legislature who was particularly deelrons of providing for a friend, by creating the effloe of Receiver of Taxes for the Twenty-third ward. It therefore behoove us to keep au eye on Senator Ccnnell, and to scan the measures Introdneed by him somewhat nar rowly, to see what there is In them. Oo Tim rod ay Mr. Counell introduced a bill to Incorporate tbe Steam Heating Fuel Com pany of Philadelphia, which is at least open to ensplolott. We have not seeu the roll tel of ibis bill, but the brief mention of lllu the retnlsr telegraphic summary of the legislative proceeding it uffi,Ment to estab lish Its bad rliaraoter, in the abseuoe of any evidence to the contrary. The bill offered by Mr. Comiell propone to Incorporate J. M. Refer, J. P. Ree, , V. OHr, aud other, a tbe Sleam Heating Vuel Company of Phila delphia, with capital of f.W.OOO, aud -here w perceive a reptile of gigautla dimensions with fvxvi 1 yjj I, rtoM,;, ond across oy irett., olhvs, etc., to euable them to lay pipe for the distilbution of steam heating fuel. The powers which it was proposed to dele gate to a certain weighing company were nothing to this. The Cattle bill is a mere trifle In comparison, and the proposed exemp tion of tbe Kleveuth street minstrel hall from the" provipions of the law reiiniring the pas sage ways and lobbies of places of amnse tnerls to be kept free from obstructions could only be considered as a piece of legislative Ucetiorisues. It is bad enough to hare all the streets of the city given over to Hie pasuenger railway corporations; but there is a tradition that eels in time become accustomed to Mug skinned, and our legislators are apparently of the opinion that the citisn ot Philadelphia are by thi time educated up to the idea that they hare no rights in their own streets which legislators and coi potations are bouud to respect; or if they are not educated up to this point, they ought to be.
