The Original Act.

"And this brings us to the inquiry
whether and how far, If at all, the act of
January 10. 1888, commonly known as the
civil service act, affects the power of re-
moval at pleasure which the Postmaster
General would possess under his general
authority to appoint this class of officers
1t does, indeed, very materially modify the
power OF appointment heretofore existing
but 1t does not purport to affect the power
OF removal. except in a single Particular
In section ID II provides that: No off,
Ger or employe of the United States mem

mote or degrade, or In any manner change

other officer or employe, or promise or

ing or neglecting to make any Contribution
of money or other valuable thing for anv
political purpose
Substantially the same is directed to t.e

AMERICAN BUTTER ABROAD.
Full Report on the Third Experiment
tnl Shipment.

The Secretary of Agriculture has re-
ceived complete reports from the third
experimental shipment of butter to London
by his department. This consisted of lot
OF Minnesota creamery butter. in 56-pound
boxes and tubs. and lot of Massachusetts
creamery butter in small tubs. family pack
ages and fancy prints. The export was
made in June. 1t cost 81 cents pound to
carry the butter from central Minnesota
TO London, by the single ton, with the best
refrigerator accommodations all the way,
excepting short transfers. The transpor-
tation from western Massachusetts, cost
rather more. because of the absence of a
refrigerator car lire to New York. and the
necessity Of paying expressage.
This butter was all placed by the depart-
ment agent In London in the hands Of re-
tail dealers. They paid from Is to 1917
cents per pound for it, the same butter
being then worth 16 cents in New York.
The wholesale price OF Danish butter was
about 20 cents In London at that time I.
was all retailed to consumers at "a IS and
2G cents per pound. most Of 1t at % cents.

Is matter between the President and his
cabinet, and not a matter for the courts.
or one in which the complainant has any
legal interest. All that 1 mean to state in
this opinion Is that the rules in question
were not such as the civil service act au-
thorizes. and do not derive any efficacy
from that act
Il know Of nothing more important to
the true interests of the country than the
policy which the civil service legislation
was intended to initiate and promote, AMI
1t Is perhaps matter for great regret
that the act of January 16, 1888, has not
gone further than it does. But IL is my
duty to construe 1t as it is.
Summing Up.
ITO sum up, conclude that, apart from
the civil service act, the Postmaster Gen
eral had the authority to remove the COM
plainant from office at his pleasure; that
this act makes no change in this respect,
except to forbid removals for refusal to
contribute to partisan objects: that the
power to the commission and the President
to establish rules to carry that act into
effect does rot authorize any rule whicn
shall make a change in the law in this
respect, and that even If this court had

by the President through the heads of de-
partments. He can use his authority as

Irrational Interpretations
ut would be a very irrational interpreta-
ton which would give to the words and
among other things which are prefixed to
this enumeration such scope of meaning
as to convey by implication an unlimited
authority to establish rules having no re-
lation to the objects, Of the law. If that
were proper Interpretation of the law.
THESE rules might be made to impose new
conditions to the power of appointment
and even take it away from the heads Of
the departments and vest 1t in the COM
mission itself. The absurdity of such a
proceeding would be manifest, and vet II
would be no more obnoxious to criticism
than rules modifying the power of removal
as it existed before the act was passed. or
