Micb. 1 Too Many at the Same Game. Plain Talk About Government Em ployes. Pension Office Treat ed Unfairly. Sec'y Gage Creates a Hubbub. Jouknal BrjKEAC, j Washington, D. C, Dec. 25. )" Quite a number of Senators and Rep resentatives met each other with very sickly smiles at the White House this week. The reason was that they had detected each other in a bit of deception more or less ridiculous. When Congress adjourned these men had said lo each other, '-We will leave the President alone with his grief and his work during the recess," or words to that effect, and some of them actually left Washington. But they did not go far, and this week they flocked to the White Ilouse, each doubt less thinking that he had fooled all the rest and would have a good opportunity to talk the President into granting what ever favor they were after. The result has been lliat the President had moie Congressional callers this week than he has had before or since he entered olllce, and none of them had an opportunity to say more than a few words to him. Those of them who could see the hiimo in the situation have been consoled by e ijoying the discomfiture of themselves aud their colleagues, but some of Ihem were in sucli a bad humor about it that they did not enjoy Christinas much. Pension commissioner Evans told the Senate Civil Service committee a trulh well known in Washington, hut which few of the bureau chiefs in the govern ment service would have had the nerve to stand behind, when he said that Sena tors, Keprcsentatives, the Civil Service commission, and other influences com pelled the retention of at least 100 em ployes of the Pension Bureau who might be dismissed without the slightest drav -back to tho work of the bureau, because of their utter inefficiency: And it is the same way in all the other branches of the government. Senators and Representa tives who talk on the floors of Congress about merit and clliciency being the unly proper standard for the government to maintain in dealing with its employes will then go to one of the departments aad demand the retention or promotion of employes known to lie inefficient. There is much righteous indignation expressed in Washington, and there will be more fiom every section of the conn try, when it becomes generally known that 'the House committee on Appropria tions struck out the estimates of the Secretary of the Interior for sufficient additional help to bring and keep the business of the Patent Office, which is now from two to six months behind, up to date or thereabouts. When it is re membered that the Patent Olllce is the one branch of the government that is conduct ed at a profit, and that it has more than $5,000,000 to its credit in the U. S. Trea sury, the action 3t the House committee seems to furnish ample ground for indig nation. It looks a little like the administration was feeling the public pulse on the civil service question. There was such a hub bub raise J over Secretary Gage's creating of that civil pension list that the sec retary made haste to say officially over his signature that there were no pensioners on the pay rolls of the Treas ury who performed no duties. That was true to the letter, but the duties' per formed by those clerks over seventy years old who have been placed on a se parate roll 'roll of honor,' so-calltd are only such ns they may choose to make them, and orders have been issued that they shotld be exempted from all the rules and regulations which ordinary employes have to comply witii, Thus they are not pensioners, in name, but In fact, what else are they? When Con gress adjourned for Christmas it was stated that President Mckinley had de cided to annul a largo portion of the extensions of the civil service rules made by his oredecessor, and that it would probably bo done before the reassem bling of Congress; now, It is said that the President will wait and see what comes of the civil service fight in Cougres, because If he acted now be would be charged with having been actuated by fear of the movement In Congress.
