would have nu meaning.
It is not to he expected that the it
of reforming the aervice will lie a►
pleasant or an easy one. The first
step was to secure the report of the
rominissiwl which hots just cul 'tted
the results of its investigations, and
the presentation of this rep.rt is
hailed by the Opposition press as a
blow to the Government. It in alto-
gether probable that the Government,
if it was not IWare of faults and weak-
uearet in the civil ew•rvice, would not
have prueurel au investigation: and
-if it had desired a whitewashing eonl-
missiou it would nal have appointed
such (leu x. Mr. Cotrtuey, air. Fyshe
and Mr. Ifaein as its Un•IUIerb.
The (Government is to he eongndu•

manner as it hs, aand it will still more
strongly command public approval in
carrying out the refonus which are
sero to be needed in the civil eei•vice.
