Candidates Hear Rhetoric At County Convention
A jumble of candidacy notices from Stephenson and surrounding counties appears, with names such as TIMMS HAYES FRISAIE and CHARLES W. showing intent to run for Sheriff Treasurer County Superintendent and other posts, all subject to Republican County Conventions, alongside parliamentary debate about tariff issues and Civil Service provisions in Congress. The text also notes a Morrison versus Randall dynamic and references to a New York Times commentary on Civil Service law and appropriations.

Civil Service Reform Critics Balk at New Appointments
In a fiery address, critics deride plans to replace civil service protections with party loyalty tests. They argue the proposal undermines the Civil Service Commission, recalls past abuses, and would politicize federal staffing, favoring appointments like Mr Oberly and allies while weakening merit-based hiring. The piece frames the conflict as a battle over reform versus patronage, with veterans warning of sweeping changes that could erode professional standards.

Speech by Hon R R Hitt on Civil Service Reform
The lengthy speech critiqued reform proposals as too radical, urging gradual, prudent Civil Service changes. Hitt defended existing appointments, warned against partisan attack, and argued for steady improvements to serve the public with efficiency and integrity. He cited past trials and British examples to justify measured reform.
Public speech argues for merit over patronage in appointments
In a heated address the speaker urges choosing the fittest candidate for department work, criticizing distributing clerkships as a form of office brokerage. Applause interrupts as the crowd reacts to the message about elected legislators and their duties.
