Washington, Nov. 2?. Republican
opponents of the civil service law, who
candidly admit that their opposition is
largely based upou the belief that the
effect of the law is to keep a great many
Democrats in olllce, will find when they
begin to assail the system, after Congress
convenes, that, while Democrats have
been protected iu ollice since Mr. Mclvin
ley was inaugurated, the number ol
office holders within the classified service
who are Republicans, largely exceeds the
number who are Democrats, The record
of the civil service commission, showing
the dales upon which extensions of the
system were made, show also that at tie
tune of the extensions the employes of
the government included by executive
order iu the classified service were most
ly Republicans.
It will, therefore, be forced upon the
civil service antagonists in the present
Congress that in trying to secure the
offices for their own followers they aid
directing their efforts as much against
Republican olllce holders as against
Democrats.
It is stated from an authoritative
source that no recent negotiations have
occurred between Secretary Sherman

man and Lord Salisbury on this subject
and that Sir Julian has not spokeu of
the matter since lie returned to Wash
ington some weeks ago from London.

presses the opinion that there will he i
