Simplicity cf Lcgidatian. One of tbe needed reform* In governmental affair* la more careful and lest haaty legtalatlon. Oeaplte retieated executive lUgBeetluu tbe pbraaeology and language of our law* continue obscure and confualng and the number of lawa at eacb session to multiply rather than diminish Every law should be intelllgtble to tbe ordinary mind, and no new law should be passed unless tbe public welfare will suffer from tbe failure of Its enactment Tbe average number of laws per year for tbe last decade baa been about 280 There are <i.0U0 act* now In force Such a niaas of law Is SO confllctlur and perplexing as to be a sealed book to tbe lay citizen and to tbe laaryer a mass of Intricacy which baffles profes slona 1 skill and research SVe hare bad no reviaion of tb* statute* since that of 1874 Tbe general statute* published. closing with tbe acts of ItfitS. was a mere compilation. Tbe time is ripe for a condensation and revision of oar Statutes Reformation of our Jury system wts at tbe last session made a subject of legislative enactment. A great step in advance was made by providing that tbe petit (Dry lists should be subject to revision in tbe wav of snlwtltutlon and elimination at tbe bands of tbe Jndge of tbe court of common pleas Tbe method of selecting tbe grand Juries should lie likewise carefully re viewed and If possible a better method devlaed and enacted into law. Civil Sarvie*. Good government demands both probity anil efficiency In pnbllc offl clals It Is difficult to tndoee tbe best men to enter public life Much lea* can they be Induced to do ao where pt> aition is tbe plaything of partisanship Instead of tbe sure reward of merit Patronage Is tbe bllgbt cf office Officeholders wboae position depends upon tb* service they render to tbe ap pointing power necessarily give tbelt allegiance to that [lower In preference to tbe people. Public business should be conducted upon tbe tame basis as private business. A state' civil service commission would be necessary to tbe e'zecntlon of aucb a law. I would vest In this commission tbe power of confirmation over all appointments to tbe classified service and would make all aucb appointments subject to trial for a period before they are made permanent. Corrupt Practices. Tbe parity of tbe ballot la tbe foundation of good government. Corruption begets dishonesty, and a corrupt and fraudulent ballot produces a government of like character. Tbe legislation of last year for a purer ballot was baaed upon two principle*—a broader definition of what oooatltatea bribery at the primsriea and at the polls, so that no form, bo were aidioua. of debauching tbe electorate, either by money, promise or hospitality, abonld be legal, and a better aetbod of etc mint tbe convict ton of both the bribe taker and tbe bribe giver. Too severe penalties for these offenses t detection end conviction well nigh Uppossible. A penalty, sorb as that prescribed In tbe act of last year, that merely disfranchises for tbe lint offense and for tbe second Impose* both dlefrancbiaement and punishment li more likely to eliminate bribery than severer penalties that can never be OSforced To.tbla wae added Immi of _fhe Informer for bis own offanae. so that tbe bribe giver or the' bribe tiker la now always In danger of being betrayed by hlr confederate. This provision makes bribe giving and bribe taking dangerous experiments, as It pats wrongdoers at tbs mere]
