IT IS A QUESTION.
Department Clerks Fear Their Political
Zeal May Cause Them Trouble.

Zeal May Cause Them Trouble.
Washington, August O.-Department
clerks are agitating the question of their
rights to assist after office hours the cam.
paign committee of the several politica,
parties. The Democratic Congressional
campaign committee, it is said, is short
OF funds and large share of its work. it
is said, in the way of distributing litera-
ture, is performed by volunteers who
serve without pay and most of whom are
employed in the Government depart
ments. 1t is estimated that nv This
means the committee is now saving about
Sl25 per day, its force having been con.
siderably increased of late. Some ones
tion has arisen as to whe Their or not this
service did not constitute offensive parti
sanship and constitute cause for remoy-
al, despite the civil service laws A num-
Der OF the chief bureau officials have been
interviewed on the subject and nearly all
OF them express the opinion that the
matter is one concerning which the clerks
may do as they please, and that they
have no right to prescribe what use the
clerks shall make of their time after
Office hours. \ few of the officials told
the clerks who inquired of them that per
sonally they had no objection, but there
was possibility that some one might
make trouble for them in the future be-
cause of their political zeal Chairman
Faulkner, of the Democratic executive
committee, said that the clerks had n
right to assist the committee and that it
proposed to protect them in that right.
