NO PRIMARY NEED APPLY
SOME INTERFERING RULES
FOR OFFICEsEEK Era.
Appointnne nts are of an ExeCu-
tive Not Political Character, a,sl
Therefore the Executive Has
all the Say About the Matter

WASHINGTON, March 11.-From utter
ances Of the President and some of the
Cabinet officers the following rules have
been deduced for office seekers
1. Incumbe will be retained in office
until their commissions expire, unless
there is voluntary resignation. When
there is no commission fixing tenure the
efficient incubent will be permitted to
serve for four years from the time of
appointment.
2. No one who held Office under the
former Cleveland Administration will be
again appointed to Office, the only cx-
ceptions being railway mail clerks and
postoffice inspectors.
3. No appointments will be made in
States having spring State elections until
after such elections have occurred.
+. All postmasters must divorce
themselves from private business, ex-
cepting Instances where, in the fourth
class, the pay is so small that postmas-
ters will not give undivided time to the
postoffice.
5. Appointments will not be made
upon magnitude of petitions or indorSe-
ments alone, but the character, appear
ance and evident fitness of the applicant
for the place must also be considered.
6. AS appointments are OF an executive
and not of a political character, recon
mendations by primary election will not
prevail.
Rule 1 does not apply to foreign mis-
sions, to the hie her grades of Consuls
| and to Assistant Secretaries and Chiefs
OF Bureaus. 1t is intended, however, to
cover that vast class of patronage in
cluded in the postoffice, inter1.a revenue
and custom services.
Rule is flexible and will be made to
| cover appointees under the first Cleve-
| land administration who are still III
position outside Of the classified service
Rule is designed to postpone the con
tentions for office until after full attention
has been given to the spring elections
1t is felt that bitterness may be engen
dered among defeated candidates anC
their friends. which may bring about
apathy at the time of the elections. Fol
this reason all candidates are expected
to pay theiI first attention to the elec
tons and after that to the offices.
Rule is intended to discourage tn,
practice of many congressman who have
primary elections in order to avoid th'
personal responsibility of reco ommendins
several candidates.-Cinc Tribune

Plenty of Assets.

Boston, Mass, March 13.-At Kin
son the House Furnishing company, with
IL branches i'll other New En- gland
cities. has made an assignment to
Charles F. Libby of Portland and
Costello c. Converse of Boston. Presi-
dent Isaac H. Atkinson says the liabili-
ties are $1,5OO,OOO; assets, estimated
SO 100000. The trouble was caused by
the stringency in the money market and
inability to meet a call loan on Saturday
Last year the company did a bu siness o
SO 100000. President Atkinson saws
the firm will probably pay its debts in

FROM CLEVELAND.
KAe is Not "Axin" the Newspaper
Man.

WASHINGTON, March 13.-The report
that he did not intend to appoint news
paper men to office for the reason that
he might be accused OF subsidizing the
press does not hold good. Congressman
Dockery, DeArmond, Cobb. Burns, and
Morgan OF Missouri called on the Presi-
dent today for the express purpose of
ascertaining the truth about the mo
journalists need apply" rule. Dockerv
asked Cleveland point blank whether it
were true or not that he had discrimina-
ted against newspaper men and the
answer came, Just as straight as the
ques, ion, that there was no such inten-
ton.
