NEPoTIsM.
Abuse Of the rubl,e service.

WAsHNGToN, Sept. 16. - Tho Ma.
tional Republican to-day makes what It
calls startling revelation. ltsays that
the officers OF the soldiers aud sailers'
national league, which has an orgauixa.
tion everywhere throughout the country
and its headquarters in this, city, have
been making an investigation, the result
of which will astcpish the people ofthe
country when made public. The asso.
olation isdeclared to be national in char
acter, non partisan, and Incorporated
under United, States laws, and ito object
the promotion of the interests Of ex.
Union soldiers and sailors Independent
OF politics, and that one teature Of the or.
ganizatlon'is that its bylaws prohibit any
officer from holding . government posi-
tion while acting as an odlctal of the
league. The investigation reterred 70
by the Republican relates to snSpotism
in the several departments. Enough
has been discovered, it Is claimed. 70
show that lnepotism is not only glaring.
ly illustrated in appointments secured
by cabinet officials, but also BY chieis OF
bureaus and other subordinate officers.
It is asserted that the officers Of the
league are compiling book IN which
are contained already the names Of at
least five hundred families, averaging
from four to five persons in each family,
holding places id the government SER
vice in this city alone. and that there are
numerous cases Of fathers. wives sous
and daughters all in one department;
that with the possible exception Of Sso-
rotary Window the heads Of departments
are all guilty OF nepotism; that one GEO.
retary has his six relatives In his do
partment; another has two; another
three sons in his department, and one 10
the pension bureau. That one head Of
bureau has twelve relatives In the ser.
vice; that one assistant secretary has
twelve relatives in the Office under him,
and others in government employ else-
where; that an assistant postmAster.
general is credited with having tour rel.
atives in the postal service under him
and other relatives in other branches Of
the service here. and elsewhere. al
One OF the discoveries. according to
the Republican, is that b certain United
States senator has q lady ..frlend" who
has been on the pay-roll at the post-offioe
department tor several years, but. has
not been at the department two weeks
altog gether since her appointment. She
has been receiving $75 per month right
along until recently, when, through the
influence of the senator, her salary was
increased from 800 to 81. 200 per year.
Alter this increase OF salary the ap.
pointee condescended to report at the
department regularly for few days,
but subsequently discontinued going to
the Office, except to draw her salary the
first day of each month. 4u7
1t is promised that the above and
similar charges will be laid before con-
gress next winter. 1t is somewhat sig-
nificant that such assertions appear In
republican newspaper. There is no
doubt that nepotlsm exists in very large
the soldiers and sailors league will do
we'll in exposing them.
