When, finally, the inevitable clash came, It was month before our nuthoiltie seemed to awaken to the fact that the rillplno. acclimated, familial with all the nat mal intricacies of the countiy. well genernled and fatalistic to the verge of fanaticism, comprised u foe cap able of offering formidable leslstance.

Philadelphia's eminent engineer, unl veislty piofes'-'or and canal expert, Hon. Lewis C. Haunt, having di tiled point blank the Interview in which ho was ci edited with having charged that the appointment of anothei Nltaiagua anal commission was only an aitilke to secure delay, the Philadelphia Eve ning Telegiaph. in which the Inter view oilglnally nppeaied, te-alllims the authenticity and nccuracy of the intetvlevv in every particular and gives in minute detail the tlrcumstancen of the Interview. it is a common niacticp among some public men to give to newspaptt men opinions for publication and then, afti i those opinions appear In print and do not look as well as expected, to take dishonorable ltfuge in repudiation. We trust nnd assume that Piofessor llaupt has not been guilty of this thing. If lie has, he is unfit l serve upon any commission repreentlng the I'nlted States government. We know nothing ns to the particulate of the alleged In terv lew called in question bv the pres ident; but we do know that Professor Haupt, in a public leetuie dellveud In Scranton on March .1 last, made public opinions fo nearly akin to those con t'inoj in the Intel view pi luted last Saturday in the Philadilphla livening Telegraph that If the inteiv l( w was not authentic It was a mat vdotthly ac curate piece of mind-reading. The man of prominence who, In eva fIob of responsibility for printed opin ions, tries to put the odium of false hood upon an honest repot ter Is con temptible and should be consldeied ns not one whit better than any common liar. Pennsylvania Democrats are proud ot their "matchless leader, William Jennings Hiyan," but they do not seem to take much stock In his mles nnd jesulatlons. A Pertinent Question. In nn oration delivered at the com menecment exeiclses of the Pnivoislty of Pennsylvania on Thuisday. Hamp ton h.

In tho same jeir theio was paid In wages to textl'o vvoikers alonu $17Mffb,000, nnd tho sale of the product of their work amounted to $722,000,000. The total Income of ,-,n the unlvctsltles nnd colic-Ken in tho entlie United States, from ull wii.rces fiom foes, productive tunli, state, municipal nnd federal appropriations was $16,7S3,63S, and In Pennsylvania, $1,207,543; while in tho aamu year tho r.joduct of tho Amtrlci.1 mluea was $6SJ,Si,9; the valuo of the cotton crop wns JMi.493,711: the coin cton, r4i.)SS.5; the wheat cron, J217.W9.50x; and the tobacco crop, in.riTt.220.

Mr. I.ymon's views have alwnjs been accepted as sound by civ II seivlee asso ciations and for that leason the piesl dent sought his advice and Insti listed him with the lesponslhllltv of coirert Ing the mistakes made b Piesldent Cleveland. Mi J.vtnun is also Uw auilior of the recent explatntlon fui nlslied by Secretai.v fJagc to the news papers in icplv to the ciltlelsms that thi otder has called out ' This explanation would fill thioe col umns of The Tribune, and is thetefore too voluminous to he repi educed in full. With the knowledge that it was wilt ten by bo eminent a rlvil service i. foimer a Mi. I.ymnn we must, how -evei. quote one poltion of It the pait which answeis the Indictment of the National Civil Seivlee Ilefeum league that the tub's have been iilu-ied so that "in futuie pei sons appointed with or without competitive examination, or without any examination, may bo placed by liansfer in any classified position, without regaid tee the char acter oi similarity of the employments intelchallgel, Mi. l.vman in polite language biand this as a wilful un truth. "The one change." sav.s he, "which has been made In the rules governing tinnstvrs has been the drop ping of pnit of the- last sentence of that rule ns It long stood the rl,uie 'or if In said position there Is not ie qutred. in the Judgment of the com mission, the peifotmanee of the same class of vvoik or the piactlce or the same mechanical tiade performed or luactleed In tho position from which tinnsfer Is proposed." With Hint clau-e In foice, the rule of transfeis stood as nn iiiisolute bar. both to mobility in Hie spivlce and the development of cm plojes except along a single line. Un trniiee Into the elosslflid j-eivlce was entinnce Into u caste, and there could be no change no matter what abilities the person might evolve, no matter what needs the servlco might develop, If. 'In the Judgment of the commls slon," theio was not icquiied tho pei loiuianee of the bame class of woik, or ihe piactlce of the same mechanical tiade. What business Institution would make ii rule which hold, 'Once stnited In this service, von bh,ni develop nlong only the one line In which jou begin? If you slait to vvoik with your hands ou may nevei hope to wmk with your head. You have elected to put your self In a caste, and no matter what our business may lequlre. or what your de velopment may demonstrate, neither the wishes of employe nor cmplovcr can change you fiom that caste." Mr. Ionian goes on to t-how that there nre still all the safeguaids of ex amination. "The- rule," says he, "clear ly says i hut transfeis shall not bo made 'without examination provided, by the commission to a position for oilglnal entrance to which, in the Judgment of tho commission, thero Is jequired by theso rules an examination Involving essential tests, different from or higher than thoso Involved in tho cxamlna tlon required for original entinnce to tho position fiom which transfer q proposed.' And yet the critics of the order declaro of this rulo that 'the politicians hnvo devised It to assist them In debauching tho public service to a degreo tho limits of which can scarcely, bo Imagined and that 'It U an Iniquity carefully covered up Ijy the politicians nnd not appreciated by the president.' As the tulo originated In the Treasury department, nnd wan never asked for or suggested by nny politician, it can at leaRt be snld ot It that these criticism- leveled nt the poll tic luna nre unmet Ited. If theio Is uny safeguaid In examinations conducted by the (Ivll service commission, It Is dllllctilt to see how the commission will under this ruto lend Itself to debauch ing the service to a degteo the limits of whlrh can scarcely be Imagined." This little explanation sheds a vol ume of light upon the character of the National Civil Service Hefonn league. It mukes plain that that organization cares les for actual civil service re formfor the adjustment of the fed eral civil setvlco on business principles than It does for Its own .self-conceit; that It Is Ignorant of the very subject which It pretends to expound and full ot the vanity which lend otherwise well-educated men to make nsses nt themselves. The National Civil Service Iteform league had better let Mr. Chailcs I.ymnn alone. The statement that soveial chlldien have been mnde ill by the self-admin-Istratlon of patent medicines left on vi-iandas In vnilous sections of this city Is enough to tir.Be the passage of an oidlname similar to that tecenlly Inttodueed In the councils of Hauls burg, forbidding such distribution. Just why chlldien are so engei to eat pills and powders which they find on porches and which, under regulation clicumsfanees, It would bo Impossible to Induce them to swallow, will prob ably never be fully explained. They will do it, however, and It has been denionsttatpd that ceitaln headache lemi'dle are not good for little people, particularly If taken with disregard to the proper elose. It was only this week that mi eldetly woman In Clinton coun ty died from the effe-ets of a headache powder which hnd been left at the door. If a diugglst makes an error In a pre scription, and serious coneqtience en sue, .some redress Is obtainable, or at least the author of the carelessness may be properly punished, but If a little child finds antl-pvilue or phena-c'etlne- pills on the front porch, swallows them under the impression that they are canelv and I made 111, It can not be pioetcteel fiom the recunence of such .v catastiophe ns long us tho In disci (initiate ellMi lhutlon continues.
