IN his annual report Public Printer
Rounds recommended that congress fol-
low up the humane provision made in the
case of the hard worked letter carriers
whereby they are allowed an annual ff-
teen days leave of absence with pay, by
making the same provision for tho
equally hard worked employees Of the
government printing office. To carry
this measure out he advised an appropri-
alton of $4,000. subsequently he fol.
lowed up his recommendation by strong
letter moro fully setting out its justice
and its advantage alike to the govern.
ment and the employees, The committee
to whom the subject was referred were

that they have reported in favor Of grant
ing the fifteen days annual leave, but
have omitted to recommend the appro-
priaton necessary to make the privilege
valuable TO the employees, and to put them
upon an equality with tho letter
carriers and other public servants, This
is an oversight which should be remedied.
The employees at the government print
ing office serve as faithfully and labori-
ously as those employed in any other
branch of tho public service, and should

the printers are to enjoy the benefit
of an annual leave Of absence, as do other
government employees they should also
be allowed pay during their leaves of

THE incompotoncy of the majority of

THE incompetency of the majority Of
tho present house to handle questions Of
moment was strongly illustrated by the
senscless struggle of Monday night to
avoid focing consideration of the bank
ruptcy bill. Tho people would have some
respect for party that had sand"
enough to boldly grapplo important prob
Ions of national concern even if its ac-
tion should be wrong, but they are not
likely to admire tho present timorous
policy of avoidance. Democracy, quoth
Mr. Curtis, is "a party without any dis
tinct national policy which it dares to
present to the country" Itknows nothing
but the dull theory Of obstruction.
