WASHINGTON CITY, July 1.-THE presi
dent issued a letter to heads of departments
i'll which he lays down the rules that must
govern federal employees i'll the matter of
their actions at political primaries, conven-
tions, etc. The document is written in the
presidents usual plain and easy be under
stool style, and informs the oiiiceholders
that while their political rights ana priv
ileges are not impaired by taking office. the
spectacle of federal official managing the
politics of the country is not edifying is
not in harmony with the real public senti-
ment aud he will have none it. The
president drops the employees of the country

guently it is not political party tdat is

1t is noticed that tho president Is careful
not to say that federal ofiicohoiders must
not be delegates to conventions or do other
political work, but hs makes 1t pretty plain
that they must not take the leading parts
in managing the politics Of their counties
and states.
The letter Closes as follows: "A just
discrimination in this regard between the
things citizen may properly do and tie
purposes for which a public office should
not be used, is easy IN the light of cor
rect appreciation Of the relation between
the people and those entrusted with official

under our form of government of political
action free from coercion

on the method of tariff reform precisely
II says; In justice to the various in
terests now staggering along under the
tariff, as well rs TO the great mass of
citizens at whose pockets alt tariffs are
aimed, future moveme against mon
opOly taxation should be made all along
the line. 1t is useless to expect the rings

They will not do it. To threaten one is
TO threaten ALL The whole scheme has
been built up on the log rolling principle.
The compact is for life. They

only will they, as well as the rest of the
people, be able perceive at glance the
benefits which the change will bring
about" According to our view Of the
case, Mr.. Morr;son's bill of two years ago
was in many respects much preferable to
the one that has just been shelvcd. Any
bill to he satisfactory must not only pro
vide for an immediate reduction, but
also provide for steady continuation OF
reduction. until purely revenue basis is
reached Then every man will know pre-,
cisely what he has to expect and can ar
