Tho Sunday newspapers brought
the first announcement of tho fact that
Androw B. Cathcart had been appoint
ed postmaster in place of Geo. A.
Clark, removed. Mr. Cathcart has
had several years' experience in the
post-ofiioe, and will make an efficient
official, but this action is a flagrant
violation of the rules of civil service
reform, and makes the pretensions of
tho republican party a sham and a
mockery. The removal of Mr. Clark
beforo the expiration of bis commis
sion, which runs until next April, is a
publics political outrage, because ho has
given Bloomsburg the best post-office
in size, in convenience, in appearance,
in cleanliness, and in servico that the
town has ever had; beoauso his remo
val was not wanted at this time by
tho business men, and was asked for
only by a very few politicians who
sought not tho pnblio good, but the
gratification of their own personal
ends in his removal; because he had
receivod the assurance of those high
in authority in the republican party,
that be should bo permitted to serve
until the expiration of his commission,
and bad made his arrangements ac
cordingly; and lastly because no cause
for his removal is attempted to be as
signed, and nono can be given, except
that it is the arbitrary act of tho re
publican President entirely from par
tisan motives.
The republican party is the cham
pion of civil service reform when
it ia out of power ; when it is reinstated
its pretensions are scattered to the
winds, acd it repudiates its own utter
ances in the most reckless manner.
How different the Democracy 1 Last
February Mr. Scott, Democratic mem
ber from Erie, mide the following re
marks on the floor in Congress :
"Sir, l have made an official list of
the number of Presidential post-offices
in the State of Pennsylvania, and I de
sire to place the same on the records
of Congress,so that they may not be
overlooked or forgotten by tho incom-
ing administration or the gentlemen
on the other side of the House who be
lievo in oivil-servico reform and that a
publto office is a public trust. I find
that there are in the Stato of Pennsyl
vania 191 Presidential post-offices, not
ono of whioh on the 4tu of March, 18
85, was held by a Democrat; tint dur
ing the four years of the present ad
ministration the appointments made on
commiosion expired have been 103; on
resignations, 22; suspensions, 17; remo
vals, 6; daaths, 3; offices blooming
Presidential, 37, and that offices in
which no change has been made were S,
I point to this record with pride,
and in a Republican Stato of 80,000
majority. Sir, it speaks louder than
anything I can possibly say that the
pledges of our party in connection
with civil-service reform and also to
carry on this Government on business
met nods have been faithfully kept.
In my own district there arc seven
teen Presidential post-offices, and dur
ing tho entire term of this ndmiuistra
tion, with tho exception of two cases
where charges were preferred of ir
regularities in office, or unlosa by
death, resignation or expiration of in
cumbent's term of office, not ono
change has been made.
This question of removals from
office in my State, and I presume in
others, tias been carried to such an ex
tent that where a poslmastor had been
appointed about one year prior to his
confirmation on the 3d day of Maroh,
1885, when we appealed to tho Post
Office Department and to the Presi
dent of the United States, claiming
tnat tbe incumbent bad not only belt!
that office for ten years prior, but that
he would hold it for five years in place
ot tour it a cnange were not made, tne
conclusion of tho Executive and De
partment was that the incumbent was
entitled to tho term of four years from
tbo date be was oonnrmed.
Sir, when you tako tho uumber of
confirmations and tho number of ap-
poirjtmonH which wero made in tbo
closing oi tne executive session of
Maroh 3, 1885, what do you find! In
my own district not less than four of
tbe Presidential postmasters wero con
firmed between tho 25th of February
and tho 3rd of March, 1885;and
there aro Hepublioan postmasters in
my district holding office to-day, ap
pointed uy 'resident Arthur, whoso
terms ot otneo havo expired, and
whioh a Democratic President knows
it is useless to fill, for a Republican
oarcus of tho Senato has given uotioe
no more appointments are to bo con
firmed.
I desire to givo these facts to tho
othor sido of the House, beoause
I know how anxious many of them
aro to oarry out civil-servioo re
form. I ask tho privilege to have the
memorandum in my hand printed with
my remarks, so that gentlemen on the
otfior side of the llouso can refer to it
in tbo future.''
Gentlomen on the other sido do not
wish to refer to this record when their
party is iu. Civil-service reform might
be defined to bo a system whereby
republicans can cling to office during
a (democratio administration. When
tbo Democratic parly again takes up
the reins of government, it ought not
to tako long to detonniuo what (ball
be done with republican office-holders.
THE
WABHINQT0H LETTER.
From our Kmrolar Correspondent.)
Washington, Aug. 5 , 1889.
Mr. Blalno must not bo as vindictive
in punishing his enemies, largo and
small, when ho gets an opportunity, as
ho has been credited with being, or
clso lie has lati ly nllowcd that eternal
vlgilonco whioh is tho price of keeping
traok of your small fry enemies to go
into innocuous desuotude. A man who
was dismissed by General Black was
reinstated in a olerkshlp in tho Pension
office a few days ago. Ho is ono of
tho bitterest men against Blalno I havo
over met. Just boforo tho meeting of
tho last republican National Convention
this man was for a short time tho edi
tor of a weokly republican newspaper
in this city, and wroto and printed iu
editorial column of his paper tho fol
lowing paragraph :
"Mr. Blalno has not said ho would not
accept it nominated. Ho just said ho
was not a candidate, and then winked
to his henchmen who boost him up tho
trco. Isn't it strango Mr. Blaine's
friends aro suoh warm friends Can
you recall ono of his ardent admirers
who lias not stolen something or who
has not placed tho republican party in
an cmbarassing position at somo time?
If Mr. Blaine allows tho writor of
that paragraph to remain in office I
shall beroafter always defend him from
tho ohargo of being vindictive
Mr. Harrison has been treated to a
revival of his experkneo during tho
early days of his administration since
his return to iho White House Thurs
day. Tho offico seekers havo mado a
grand rush knowing that this would be
their last chance until fall, and the
Prcsidont is ready to bo pitied. Ho
has appointed a largo number of post
masters, and tbreo Louisiana men have
captured good prizees Ex-Gov. War
mouth, Collector at Now Orleans, Mr.
John F. Patty, (a negro), Naval officer
at Now Orleans, nud tho notorious J.
1?. G. Pitkin, Minister to Argentine
Republic and more appointments are
expected before he leaves to mono w
for Bar Harbrr.
Ther is little excitement here on
account of tbe seizing of the Canadian
sealing vessel "Black Diamond" in
Behring pea by the U. S. Revenue
Cutter "Rush." No serious trouble is
likely to grow out of this or any other
similar seizure, while tbo idea of our
claiming exclusive jurisdiction over
Behring sea is not at all palatable to
England, her commercial interests in
the sealskin industry aro too great to
allow her to kiok up a row. The fact
of the matter is that England is just as
muoh interested In having the illegal
taking of seals stopped as is tho Unit
ed States, and tho Canadians may howl
all they please but her majesty's gov
ernment will not get excited over this
question. Tho law, under which this
seizure was made was passed by the
last Congress as the result of an in
vestigation mado by a committo of the
HouBe. It was among tbo last bills
signed by Mr. Cleveland,
Commissioner ot Pensions Tannor
has answered the charge of favoritism
in making applications special by giv
ing out a statement showing tho entire
number of suoh cases to have been
nine hundred and fifty two. These
applications wero reprcs ntcd by 317
attorneys, the largest number represent
ed by a single attorney being 97.
The hotel corridors filled up as if by
magic tho day the President returned
from Deer Park. After to-morrow,
when he starts for Bar Harbor they
will resume their usual August quiet
ness. A delegation of Ohio republicans
has told Mr. Harrison that unless
he placos certain patronage at their
disposal they might as well give up all
hope of carrying the legislature. It is
not known what answer they received.
Er-Postnnater General Hatton, edi
tor of ,tho J'ost, and Civil Service
Commissioner Roosevelt have been in
dulging in a wordy warfare in the col
umns of of tho newspapers.
The Interior department has sent a
commissioner to France to learn as
much as possibly about tho irrigating
methods in mo over tlure in order that
the knowledge obtained may be used
to devise some way of irrigating the
enormous tracts of arid land in west.
A. W. Layman, for years the Wash
ington correspondent to tho New York
Sun, has purchased the Helena Mon
tana Daily , Independent. Mr. Lay
man will make tbe paper follow the
Sun in its political course. Ho will
support Hill for tho next Presidential
nomination.
Ex-Senator Kellog, of Louisiana,
says Harrison by his appointments in
that Stato has thrown away what little
chance the republican had of carrying
the third Congressional district. He
also intimates rather strongly that
the Lonisana delegation in next repub
lican National Convention will oppose
the re-nomination of Harrison. All
of whioh is very interesting, but
tho fact should not be forgotten that
Kellog has a very sore bead.
The age limited for the appointment
of letter carriers in non-civil service
post-offices has been eitendol from
thirty avo to forty years.
More than forty democrats were dis
charged from the government print
ing oiuoe last wee.
