subscription TO the state committee
and as liberal as you can afford TO
make il. If the republicans OF Penney

IL will prevent any agitation or dis
astrous change of the tariff by the

subscription as promptly as possible
by check or money order; or call at

Anumber OF similar communication
were received by empolyes Of the

has transmitted the circular to the
civil service commission for such ac-
ton us they may deem proper. 1t Is
maintained by officers of the Interior
Department, that the Pennsylvania
state committee have, by directing
the letters specifically to employees, Ia
be delivered by carriers in the govern
ment buildings, committed breach
of Section IL OF the civil service act
which reads as follows: Section IL

discharge of official duties by any oil
Ger or employe of the United Statei
mentioned in this act, or any nav,
ward, fort or arsenal, solicit in an,
manner whatever or receive any con
tribulion of money or any other thin
of value for any political purpos'
whatever. Section eleven OF the SAINT
act expressly forbids such solicitation
by any persons in the service OF tn
: United States in any place and II
probable that an examination will b
made to ascertain whether any of tn
me.nbcrs of the committee fall withi
the scope of this section.
