WASHINGTON LETTER Fr str EeraUr Osrtei pwdeot. The Unted Htats Govern laent diBeru from the govern merit of other great powers in that its civil service far ex reeds in personnel ts "milita ry or naval services. T b i s cannot be a.iid of Uerinany, of France, of Russia or any other great power.. Wi t h them there are far more sol diers bearing arms than clerks wielding pens, and the United Spates government Is further peculiar in its exten sive employment of women in clerical work, Perhaps in po other country except Rus sia la the civil service estab lishment eo much in need of leorganiiatjon and retci- A great reform was dot less effected when admisi to the. seme was made pendent upon a corn pet i examination requiring tain educational attainuv The service under Rooae is .decidedly better thai waa under Grant. But t fact that a tban or wor has proved by an exami tion that ha lean spell, wi and knows something ol ritbmetic does not prove t he is willing to work or not take advantage of t many opportunities to i lect a(ni tjUirk Lis work, departments are enuraix with employees who h t b en placed there on aecc of their political servicei on account of their relnt ship to Senators or S-nH wives or mothers inlaw have htll fast through n administration's succe cabinet officers as hea departments hi-sitatinj displace clerks so respec so venerable and of sui midable antee4ents. These clerks so wel trenched have a most d qlizing influence. They long drawn pay for doii tie or no work, and t depisin all the arts of i ing work and making most of their sinecures. President and the Cabir fWrs hnve long been c zant of this state of ni and at a Cabinet me just previous to the I dent'a departure Sout whs decided that the 1 dent and Cabinet offices! be entited to the rignt t mij8 preraptorily- any service employee known Infflnent, or obstruct! the Government servin euch a cane as lh dier should be final and th charged employee with courw or rightofappec howl that has arisen i Department in Wnshir riemonstrateu better t anything else rauM, th lwr of heads that shoul The efficient, honest ai dustrious clerk ha n to fear from the ordr is conHervative to est that thirty per cent, ol government clerks ar king in their shoes at present moment. It is be supposed that tbir., , rent 7 of the civil employees will be disminsed nor that a third of even that proportion will go, but every 'man and woman with a guilty con science Is conscious that ' he or she is in range of the light ning that may strike at any moment. :i . . The government clerk does not have a hard time. He is asked to work seven "and hours six days in the week. He has thirty dajs annual sick leave and thirty days annual vacation, He has as many holidays as a patiiot ic people can devise reasons for or find desd heroes to honor, including Labor Day. During three mouths of the summer he is dismissed ev ery Saturday at ninn.. And for all of this he gets a sala ry higher than would be paid by any private corporation and paid with a regularity that nothing can interrupt. b in best ans. tea me, r e it, rsi- ?cu kto nci du )88l I n h nent per- un- jday light to (with Rests Uu- O IS mu bu- mon lions or chief tfend lace. en hich with paid lata lent. nerj mlier ink, per cent Ithan after erfu- they give If a dayn le ne ment at is. from ball turns with e he e has a pic est ot s and hsider the nesty t may ecti fi- nw are too widely a varvniK -maracter to moKe dewcriptionpossibk Suffice an example or two. A chief of a bureau is an habit ual drunkard. He has a tru ted clerk who feels his own position : more secure or bis chances for promotion better if he humors the chief. The Chief leaves with hi signa ture attached to blank docu ment papers of all variety when he goes for a spree. The clerk fills them in and they go to the Secretary and occa sionaiiy even the President is honored with one which the chief has never seen except when he attached, his name to the blank. His clerk keeps him informed in a general way of the office, it he can be found, and if his absence cau ses too much comment he generally has sufficient con trol to sober up and come bak until quiet is restored."' Another, the coresponn ent of a powerful newspaper wants his "ladyfren" kept in office. It is both moie respec table and more economical for him. She hasn't had the advantages of an extensive educaion but shedusfs books so she gets a position at sey enty five per month. She isn't always eleven or always po lite or always sober but it is a dungeioux thing to antag onue a powerful newspaper and the correspondent prob ably knows about other ir regularities in the Depart ment that the chief who signs each month for her effi ciency and good conduct, would not have made public for a good deal' more than seventy five dollars a month paid by tbegovernment. Bnt space forbids enumeration. The cabinet officers have the right in their own bando now. If they qllow the Gov ernment to be so persistent ly and systematically nVeec- ed the public will know where to place the responsibility. Disastrous wreck. Carelessness is responsible for ma. ny a railway wreck and the same causen are making human wrecks of suffering from throat anil lung troubles. But since the advent of Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption, Coughs and Colds even the worst cases ran be cured and hopeless resignation is no longer necessary. Mrs, Lois Cragg of Dor Chester, Mass., is one of many whose life was saved by Dr. Kings New Discovery, This great remedy is guaranteed for all throat and lung diseases by M. B. Blackburn.

I was taken severely sick wi'.h kianev trouble. I tried all sorts of medicines, none ot wnjen relieved me. One day I saw ad of yo ir Eec trie Bitters and determined to try that. After taking a few doses I felt relieved, and soon thereafter was entirely cured, and have not seen a sick 'ay since Neighbors of mine have been cured of rheum a tism. neuralgia, liver ana money troubles and general debility." This is what B. F. Bass, of Frcemont, N. C, writes. Only 50c at Black burn's. Charity is the i-reatn gener ated by the milk of human kindness. . A Runaway Bicycle.

Those on the speaker's platform crowd led up to congratulate h i m and ihnk.'his hand. In Athe midst of this informal recejv tion, some big-lunger) fellow from the crowd below shout ed out, "Music by the band.'" The bandmaster away in th gallery, heard the shont an' l be music came, It was "Dix iel" Instantly the people, feel ing good, knowing that they had received what they came after, delighted with the per sonality of the President, went into a fury of cheering Roosevelt saw the moment to win the hearts of the mul titude for good and all. He stepped briokly to the rail, bis high hat came off. He marched up and down in time to the music, swinging h i s hat. Men below went crazy. They fought to get towards the stand. There was a pr lect volley of applause. Still the band played and the President jnst out of a speech in the full glare of the sun, still inarched up and ddwn waving his bat. "Come on, boys!" he shout ed. They came. The grounds rang with it, the shouts of men, the delirious cheering of boys, the hoarse throated bellow of the men from the farms, the sobs and high fa I setto of women. The Presi dent was part of it all. There wan no sham about hts en thuHia.Htn. H pranced thre is no other word, undignified nathat sounds. Almost, I had said, he cake walked, and to Dixie! No one could look at the sight and think of it and miss theentbusiasm of the moment. Presently, madder in its joy as the rythnj of th old tune had come to be, I he band ceased playing. There was a nod from one of those in the seats of the mighty, the big Heret seryi'-e man stepped in front of the President .and the party, followed by t h e marshals and others in au thoiify hd away to the luncheon to be given to tho Piesident. Doesn't Respect Old Age. It's shameful when youth fails to show proper respect for old age but just the contrary in the case of Dr. King's New Life Pills. They cut off maladies no matter how severe and irrespective of old age. Dyspep sia, jaundice, fever, constipation all yield to this perfect pill. Price 25c. at M. B. Blaekbui n's.
