Excerpt from Colonial Civil Service: The Selection and Training of Colonial Officials in England, Holland, and France All thinking men are united in the Opinion that the United States ought to establish in the Philip pines a civil service which Shall be thoroughly effi cient and free from political pressure of every kind, and hence it appears worth while to see what light can be derived from the experience of other nations. A radical change in the British system has been made since the excellent work of the late Dorman B. Eaton on the English civil service was published; and there is no book in our own language, and none containing the latest information in any other, upon the methods of recruiting officials for the colonies of Holland and France. For this reason the fol lowing pages on the Selection and Training of Colo nial Officials in those three countries were originally prepared at the request of the American Historical Association, and a summary of the results was pre sented at the meeting of the Association at Boston on December 27, last. In writing a report of this kind it is important to include, as far as possible, everything that a student of the subject might desire to find, and hence the following chapters must comprise a great deal of detail that is unnecessary for the general reader. In order, therefore, to save the latter from wasting his time on what does not interest him, the chapters have been subdivided into short sections with sepa rate titles. This, it is hoped, will enable any one to find rapidly any special points in which he may be interested. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
