tt la reported Irom Washington that
Secretary Gago intends to perform an
act of poetic justice .by replacing in the
Philadelphia Mint some thirty veterans
of the war w ho were dismissed from their
tuitions by the Cleveland administra
tion. An investigation has shown that
the veterans were removtd on lVcora
lion day four years ago, and Mr. Gago
will replace them on the coming lVooia
tion dav. Tho Justice of their reinstate
ment will therefore have the element ol
poetic retribution by takiug place on
what will be, not ouly the anniversary
of their removal, but Ilia day set apart
as a Boleuin festival for tho commemora
tion of the services to the Republic of
that grand army ot which they are mem
tor. The leiiistateuieut of these voterans
will be gratifying to all patriots through
out the country. No feature of the
Cleveland administration gave more ct
(,'rton lo luiblic sentiment than did those
acta which disclosed a hostility lo the
veterans of the war Biraply because they
..m vntorana. The country noted with
profouud indignation the removal ol
.-omnetent olhcials from oince by the
democratic administration, against whom
no charge of misconduct or inetiicieucy
could bo brought.
Had theae removals been made (rank
Ir. under the spoils system of turning out
republicans to make way for democrats,
the pcopIo would have regarded it with
les hostility. Clevelaud, however,
made such loud claims as a civil-service
retormer, and so oatentaliously posed ss
an opponent of the spoils system, tnai
no conclusion was possible except that
theae removals were made simply he-
causa the men were grand army veter
ans and had taken a patriot's pari in the
war to which Cleveland had sent a suo
etitute.
