CARLISLE'S BLACK LIST,
Clerks Who Failed 10 Vote Must Gel Up and

Washington. May 2O-Sccrctary Of
the Treasury Carlisle has a little list.
IL Is u lisi of the employees Of the treas
ury department, Democrats as well IA
Republicans, who have been therc for
years and who have failed to 20 home
To vote.
This list Is destined To become famous.
u u nlWndy known a. "Cnrlislr's black
list" ns It contains only the names Of
tlcsr marked for dismissal
MIR, Carlisle has expressed the opinion
that no man who neglrcts 10 exercise
the right Of citizenship should be re-
q med In public service. This, Of course,
does not rcfcr to the employees of the
department appointed from the District
of Columbia, o. they have no right 10
vote, but It does refer to every man
calming residence in one Of the states
who has repeatedly failed 10 go home
ard cast his vote on election day for
one party or the other. Secretary Car
Isle respects Democrat or a licpuhli-
eau. hut he has no use for q mau who
claims no allceinnce TO some parry
This BLACK list Is the direct out
growth Of the ease Of Chief SiurirNnni,
of the stationery division. Mr.. Sturte-
want has been In the department for
thiriytwo years. and during all tlIat
time has been charged 10 the state of
Massachusetts lie has not cast vote,
however. In any election In Massa-
ohusetts In all these years.
PROTESTS FROM MUGWuMrS.
Whom his resignation was called for
by Secretary Carlisle a great howl went
up from The mugwumps, some Of whom
called upon MIR. Carlisle and protested
agains' Mr.. Sturtcyants removal. They
pointed to the fact that Mr.. Sturteynnt
Ind had nothing whatever TO DO with
politics, aud he had depended altogether
for retention Ia office upon his efficiency
as Il public officer.
This only served to make MIR, Car
Isle more determined 10 accept the
resignation, already rendered, Of the
chief Of the stationery division II also
brought about the preparation Of the
black list" The little list " not yst
completed, but it will be In . few days
