The article discusses the political issues related to the U.S. Civil-service reform is going to be the crucial test of the new administration, being led by Mr. Grover Cleveland. President Cleveland's success or failure will depend on his surrounding himself by men who either mean civil-service reform themselves, or know that their places are dependent on their carrying it out. The article also discusses the importance of voters for political parties. The future of any political party depends on its voters. The only disease of which a party ever dies is paucity of votes. The business of getting votes is the one great work of the party manager.
