Poliard of Nananse is Next Sunday another missionary in the ten per cent. of office seekers. What about the remaining sixty per cent.! They are onâ€"lookers who are interested only in looking for a square deal and they are quick to recognize "dirty work at the crossâ€" roads", and that is what they call firing a Grit to make way for a Tory or visa versa. Then let us see the reaction on the ten per cent. of office seekers when the spoils system is applied. Fifty of them want the job. One of them ieta it and the other fortyâ€"nine are sore about it. The thirty per cent. who are apologists for the system are divided in their views. To sum up the net result. Only one of the ten per cent. is satisfied and not more than oneâ€"third of the thirty per cent. will defend the action of the government, and the latter wil{go down in the estimation of the sixty per cent. In short, practice of the spoils system will please only ten per cent. of the government‘s supporters and it will be more or less offensive to ninety Vr cent. of them. A wise ,overn- ment will therefore regard the spoils system as not only bad for the state, but injurious to its party. In cases where a vacancy occurs in the natural wayâ€"on acocunt of a death, a retirement or t‘e creation of a new officeâ€"it is quite natural and proper for the ?vemmm of the dn{(‘tn appoint one of its friends to the position. Even in those cases, however, it would be better if the choice be made by an indeâ€" pendent commission irrespective of party politics. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Flynn and babe Not only is the spoils system bad for the state, but it is bad for any political party which {ets into the hands of leaders asinine enough to practice it. Let us see how it works out by considering its effect on any party in power. After a change of government there is always a great hullabafim about who is to get this office or that. The newsâ€" papers give such questions prominence in space that would be more usefully employed in informing their readers about other matters which affect all the common people. And after all, not ten per cent. of the common people are office seekers or care a hoot about who is appointed to office, so long as they are served by the appointee courteously and efficiently, Perhaps thirty per cent. take more or less interest in adv‘nnc‘ing the claims of their friends who constitute 1 suspect that when Senator Hardy slammed the spoils system at a great meeting of Liberals the other day, it was the language of the blood which spoke, for he is the son of a provincial statesman of fragâ€" rant memoryâ€"a man of high ideals, and British to the core. In his day, the late Hon. A. S. Hardy was a hard hitter for the causes which he espoused, and he not unfrequently aroused the ire of his opponents, but he has a worthy place in the annals of the province as the very antithesis of a peanut politicianâ€"as one who stood for the emulation of the ideals of British institutions, and, of course, in them there is no room for Uncle Sam‘s spoils system. The senator did well when he "spoke out in meeting" the other day and his words should have a saluâ€" tary effect on the Lifiera] party, and the Conservative party as well. Senator Hardy made some remarks the other day which should be pondered by all peanut politicians who profess to admire the spoils system which prevails in the United States. Under that system the deâ€" feat of a government is a signal for a change in the personnel of the civil service. It is founded on the unsound principle that to the victors belong the spoils, that being the way that government jobs are regarded in that countryâ€"a marked contrast to the British view that the civil service is a nonâ€"partizan body of men and women appointed to serve all the people and are as far above the hurlyâ€"burly of politics as the judiciary. It is only under the British system that any country can have a really efficient civil service. This was recognized several years ago by the best minds in the parliament of Canada and the federal civil service commission was established to make the principle effective. And under it the public is getting a better service trom coast to coast than prevailed in the days when the service was poisoned by United States methods being here and there employed. Tflere are some part time jobs which cannot be conveniently seaft with by the commission and the service paid for on a commission basis. In such cases no harm should result to the official if he exercises his right to be active in politics. But the salaried holder of a fullâ€"time job should be as aloof from politics as are our judges. To be otherwise should warrant his dismissal. And when the last of the present politicians has graduated into the ranks of real statesmen this rincip?e will be recognized by them all and no helping hand will be herd out to any civil service fairly convicted of offensive partizanship, no matter which side of politics he tries to aid. We would then soon have an ideal civil service. THISTLETOWN Weston Personrals By A. B.

Williams, chief of the enâ€" tomological staff of the Rothamsted Station, Herts, finds that bees can be made to clock in after breakfast and clockâ€"out at teaâ€"time. One hundred bees enter each of his hives in ten seconds. Each bee breaks an invisible ray in the porch which is connected to a recorder on top of the hive. 1# clocks each bee out on the splitâ€"secâ€" ond. One difficulty was that if at the end of a day‘s liquorâ€"crawl a bee has one sip over the eight he is liable to cannon into the doorâ€"posts and upâ€" set the whole apparatus, Every mornâ€" ing except Monday there is a rush period, and the ray becomes so excited that it clocks out one long bee.
