Hammond’s statement tvas to the ef fect that he had not kuown that Hun nicutt hnd registered before or he would have told him not to register agtiiti. He dented in toto that he had told Hunnicutt to give the name of Bob Evans. Attorney Fogarty made a long and forcible speech for his client. He Aid great stress on the fact that the judge should not believe the evidence of Hight and Williams. He said: ■‘Of course nil the witnesses are hon orable men. Of course, all they did towards giving evidence against Ham mond was from patriotic motives on ly. ‘They represent moral politics,” said Mr. Fogarty, looking at the judge with a alight emi e rippling over his coun tenance. He went on to state that Hammond, even If he hnd desired to register Hun nicutt as Jones, would not have told Hunnicutt to give the wrong name In the presence of Registrar Meßeth. He stated that Hunnicutt might have Stated anythtng under the Influence of Hight and Williams. “Tom flight's the 'fixer.'” sail Mr. Fogarty, “and Charles Williams' evi dence Is undoubtedly false."

Policeman Reynolds brought that charge. The de fendant plead guilty, but, after a bit, said to the judge: “Judge, you might as well fine me and that other boy, 'case we is both not gwlne to tat! the truth.” The other boy, a witness, denied the charge. There was nothing done about the charge, as it could not be proven.

The merit system tn our public ad ministration baa proved Us worth. Ex perience haa shown that wherever tba hostility of appointing or governing of fleers haa sot been an tmpedtm< nr. If baa Improved the personnel of the j branches in which It Haa been estab lished. and reduced the public expense, while in other branches wheer th« rules have not been applied, the case baa often been notably the reverae. In the classified force of the depart mental service at Washing on, alone, titling the period from 1X93 lo 1X96, the saving effected annually through in creased efficiency has been estimated. In the official reports of the flvit Ser vice Commission, at more than three millions of dollars. We believe that changes, whereby | positions and classes of posltlors sr<- | now removed permanently from the j classified service, will be accepted not i only aa a step backward, but as proof ! that the system Is not regarded by the j preeont administration as here and j here to stay, and will Inevitably I awaken doubts as to the sincerity of j repeated declarations of the party now ; dominant in notional affairs that the ' law establishing it shall be thorough')- and honestly enforced and extended wherever practicable. How far this view of the action wl to tie contemplated would be Jnst or reasonable, we do not think It needful to discuss: we lay before you our con viction that It would be the view ta ken. In fact, by the intelligent public, that It would Impair the confidence of many palriotic Americans In the hnnor and good faith of their government. ; nnd that it would encourage the per- , nlriotis activity of men Interested In ; our politics principally as a means of securing selfish advantage. We urge earnestly, that these grave evils may be guarded against. CAR THIEF CAUGHT. Will Logan Was Arrested Last Afternoon.
