Kansas has Just now something like an Aus

their hands on the weetern climate has not

needless for me TO say that there ma"
been no such ruling by the present adj

thing has been done 10 permit the free
political coduct of oficeholders within
reasonable bounds.
This departure from the old order or
things was first begun while Democrats
were filling the offices. The first time
q came to MY attention was In the case
Of the deputy-pOstmaster at Columbus
O.. under Postmaster Seuter. Demo
crat over year ago. This official was
the secretary Of the Democratic County
Committee. and an appeal came 90 the
office to either remove him or 10 require
him 10 give up his Office Of secretary.
The subject was gone over very carefully
with Mr.. Gray then the head Of this de-
partment. and we reached the conclusion
that so long as this official was AT his
Office 10 attend TO his official duties and
did not permit his political labors TO IN
terfere with the discharge OF his obliga-
lions to the Government this department
would not 90 anything. This man re-
mained as the secretary OF his committee
all through the campaign and did Jealous
work for the party opposed 10 the present
administration. The only official act OF
this department was TO send him letter
TO the effect that he was only required
20 do his public duty, and beyond that the
department was not disposed 10 disturb
him.
"'rhe question again came before this
department upon the request Of a letter
carrier connected with the Chicago office
wanting TO know If he could act as a dele
gate 10 a convention. lie was Informed
that ne was al liberty 10 put a substitute
on in his place and attend this convention
so long as he conducted himself properly
and did nothing that would bring the
postal service into 81 repute. Both Of
these cases related 20 Democrats, and
this permission was given when Demo-
Gratis were IN Office. For my own part
! have never been able 10 see why the
mere fact that a man holds an office
should make II impossible for him 10 eX-
erciso his privileges as an American Citi-
zen. or to identify himself with the party
TO which he owes allegiance.
