lieve that Federal employe has right to do with
his wages what he sees fit. II he wants TO contribute
to the campaign expenses of the party in power, he

employees In this city fixed upon a certain percentage
OF their salaries which they agreed pay into the

MoyED-AN ORDER FINALLY ISSUED.

the Mayor says It Is an incumbrance, and has no
right TO be there As long ago as August % James A.
Roosevelt the owner of the premises No s45 Broad

the pole in front OF his property from which the
Pirroy banner hangs was there without lawful au-
thorlty and he wanted 1t removed No action result
ing. Mr.. Roosevelt September wrote to the
Mayor, renewing his complaint with the additional
specification that the wires used to guy the pole had
been attached to the coping of roof and had pulled
down a big stone weighing 600 y 500 pounds, which
fell upon the sidewalk Fortunately no one happened
to be upon the spot when the stone fell Then Mayor
Hewitt wrote to General Newton. incosing Mr..
Roosevelt's complaint "Of course" he wrote. It Is
an incumbrance that ought TO be promptly removed
and request that you Will direct the attention Of the
Bureau OF Membranes to the matter without delay"
The banner and the poles were still undisturbed,
and Mr. Roosevelt's lawyer called at the Commits
sgoners Office TO know the why. lie was IN
formed that in an alleged similar case in Park place
the courts had granted injunction forbidding the
removal Of the New-York Sign Advertising Co.'S
banner. When this reported 10 the Mayor he
again, on September II, wrote TO General Newton
