Richmond Evening Journal. President Taft's new order, . placing fourth-class postmasters under civil service. afTects 35.0u" postmasters, 25,000 having been previously put in the classified list by the President. It is understood that there is no purpose to disturb any that are not unfit. Vacancies will hereafter be filled by the Civil Service Commission on the report of postoffice inspectors where the office pays less than SSOO. For offices paying more than SSOO a year one of three ; applicants in high standing will I be chosen. As a large proportion of fourth- j class offices, however, pav less than SSOO considerable power is! placed in the hands of postoffice, inspectors, which might be turned to political account when ! new appointments were to be made. On the whole, however, it will serve to take the smaller offices from under political in fluence, and make the choice of a postmaster of a small office an appointment for life. The President's order is not necessarily permanent, as Con gross can undo it if it desires, or can make it permanent. The order will go into efl'ect at once, however, and it i;- not | so easy to undo a reform in ihei public service. There is d-vp-i roofed conviction in the minds! ot'thi people that a tenur ur-j ing g'iod behavior tends r> a more cii'riont and more ee tunic j s. rvio", and public opinion v, uldj Political Advertising. And Now the Carolina Union Farmer Calls Mr. McNinch Down i i Is Neither For or Against Any of the Candidates In Mr. McNinch's indictment of Senator Simmons he included the Carolina Union Farmer, along with The Progressive Farmer, Woodrow Wilson and Collier's Weekly, as opposing Senator Simmons. The Progressive Farmer and Woodrow Wislon have already sent in their disclaimers in no uncertain way. Collier's Weekly has completely turned Republican, and now comes The Carolina Union Farmer and says on its editorial page this week, with a border around it for emphasis: "We desire to again call attention to the fact that The Carolina Union Farmer and the Farmers' Union are not taking any part in the Senatorial Primary. Some months ago we warned campaign managers not to attempt to use the Farmers' Union to advance the inter ests of their candidate. We are neither for or against any of the three candidates in the field, and any attempt to mislead the public is not going to be very profitable in the way of getting votes. The fact that during the past two weeks, extracts from the editorial page of this paper have been used, in one candidate's favor has given some people the impression that this paper is supporting this particular candidate. We desire to have supporters among the officials of the North Carolina Farmers' Union, and no one has a monopoly on the Farm ers' Union vote." Getting lonesome over there, isn't it, Mr. McNinch? By the way. as Mr. McNinch didn't answer my telegram about The Progressive Farmer, it is presumed he failed to get it, and so I am sending out this "Marconigram" to ask, if it should find him within its radius, if he has seen this week's issue of the Progressive Farmer, which has in it a letter from Mr. Poe addressed personally to Mr. McNinch? SAM L. ROGERS, Manager for Senator Simmons. I likely to be opposed to a step backward and the President's order is likely to stand. The Government would do I well however, to let the people name their own postmasters.
