A PROTEST FROM TWO OF THE BECAPI
TATED.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The Post.
master and Assistant Postmaster were
removed on Saturday by the President
for alleged active sympathy with the
Star route defendants. They have ad-
dressed the following to tho President:
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.
To the Pres;dent-Sir Learning
through the public press for the first
time that by your orders we have been
removed from the positions of Post
master and Assistant Postmaster of this
city on the ground that we have been
guilty of misconduct as officers of the
government-which allegations are false
in every particular and damaging to US
we avail ourselves of this early op-
portunity to bring the matter to your
attention, in case said reports are au-
thentic, and asking of you that before
you finally confirm this alleged action
you will suspend such summary pro-
cedure until the matter can be thor
ouehly investigated by commission or
any fair method your wisdom may sug-
gest, to arrive at just and correct con-
ciusion. The charges of Tidball (late
Postoffice Inspector), to which Bliss al.
iudes in his letter to you, were met more
than a year ago and explained to the
satisfaction of the department. As
to the charge that we directly or
Indirectly interfered with the so-called
Star route cases, we deny. As to the |
of Mr.. Anger in his
home paper, it was simply the sub |
stance of what was stated by the Court |
from the bench at the time and was
az matter of news only. |
While we do not question your right to
suspend in one case and remove in the |
other. we do deny your right to assign

conduct and action alike dam
aging and injurious to us as public
officers and honorable men, without
giving us an opportunity to be heard.
You must be aware that these ret1ec-
tions, which are virtually ISLANDERS upon
our character, receiving the official
sanction of your high office, leave US no
other course than this application and
appeal to your sense of right and JUS
tice The offices we willingly yield,
but as to the aspersions on our charac-
ters we enter a respectful but earnest
protest.
Very respectfully your obedient serv-
ants, ID. B. ANGER.
