An Obnoxious Practice Revived,

The Presidents attention is called to
the action Of these Federal officials
who are now at Baton Rouge in the
interest Of aspirants to the high office
Of U. S. Senator from Louisiana. Es-
pecially conspicuous is the Assistant
Postmaster at New Orleans. who, not
content with leading the canvass for
his Senatorial choice. appears also to
have undertaken the business Of elect
ing a Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives.
This action is not only ia violation
of the Civil Service rules, but strikes
the onlooker as affronting the dignity
Of the House itself. The State has,
throughout its political history, endur-
ed a great deal too much meddling at
the hands Of United States officials.
1t is time to call a halt. United States
officers are paid to give their time to
the government service. not to assist in
the election of Speakers aud Senators.
Public opinion should express itself SO
emphatically as to put an instant and
final end to this revival Of an obnox-
ious and heretofore vigorously de-
nounced practice.-N. Q. City Item.

is stated that it still believes that
