Harrison on Civil Service Reform, i
In none of his papers upon "This
Countrv of Ours'' has ex-President!
Harrison delivered himself with such
vehemence as he has in the one In the
Mnrnh numher of the Ladies' Home
Journal, "The President's Duties."
Beside commending one nf'Mr. Cleve
land's acts, and censuring ambassa
dor fop making political aneeches. he
talk of presidential appointments in a
Tiot feeling and an almost pathetic
wav. TJnon the lattr theme, in giv
ing endorsement to Civil Service Re
form, he says, "In spite of all the diffl.
eiiltle that beset the question of
removals and appointment it must he
conceded that much progress in the
direction of a betterment of the service
has been made. The Civil Service
Rules have removed a targe number of
minor offices in the department at
Washington, and. In the postal and
oilier services, fern the aoramhle of
politics, and have given the president,
the cabinet officers and the rremlwrs
of congress great relief: but it still re
mains true that "in the power of ap
pointment to office the president finds
the most exacting, unrelenting and
distracting of his duties. In the na
ture of things be begins to make ene
mies from the start, and haB no way of
escape it is fate; and to a sensitive
man Involves much distress of mind.
His only support is in the good opinion
of those who chiefly care that, the pub
lic business shall be welljdone, and are
not disturbed br the consideration
whether this man or that man Is doing
it; but he hears very little directly
from this class. No president can con
duct a successful administration with
out the support of congress, and this
matter of appointments, do what he
will, otten weakens that support. It
Is for him always a sort of compromise
between his ideal and the best attain
able thing."

Corbett Still Claims the Championship,
James J. Corbett baa sent Fitzaim-
mons the following challenge:
"To Robert Fitzslmmons: When I
retired from the ring it waa with the
distinct understanding that if the
championship was won by a foreigner
I should reclaim It. I hereby claim
the title, and, as you also claim It, wish
to direct your attention to the fact that
I have deposited $1000 with Will J.
Davis, of Chicago, for a match with
you. Please cover it at once, and by
so doing show that vou are not again
avoiding a fight with me, as you did
at Hot Springs. I will gladly meet
you before any reputable club In this
country or any other that can guaran
tee a fistic meeting between us for as
much money as you can raise or for a
purse alone, immediately or in any
reasonable time, but in any event you
must deposit a sufficient monetary
guarantee to insure your appearajee
in the ring at the time agreed upon, I
doing likewise. Now let us have a
nieetiiig,f.ahd no more recriminations
or newspaper talk. You are the one
man In the world I especially desire
to fight, and I will meet you at any
place you may name to arrange for a
match. If you really believe you are
my fistic equal, prove it by your fists
and not by bombastic newspaper talk.
