Postal Employees Must Not Lobby"

\ general order recently promulgated
by the postmaster general. Hon Charles
Emory Smith, is a repetition Of IN on
der which was made by Gen. Wilson
when serving in President Clcveiand'3
second administration. At that time va
rious organized bodies of postal en-
ployes were in the habit Of sending enc
or more paid delegates to WashinSt ~
during the session of Congress ana u
influence congressman to favorable ac-
ton. The eight-hour law, which IS now
giving 50 much trouble on account of the
construction of the supreme court that
carrier must stop at the end Of The
eight hours whatever the condition of his
work. and which renders him liable to re
moval if in his Willingness to deliver
what mail he has he over steps the time
he is allowed. was put through Congress
through this kind of effort.
1t is evidently the intention Of the pres
ent administration TO adh ere strictly to
the line which was laid dowl in Presi-
dent CIcvelands time relative to the I'M
becoming efforts of government employees
to lobby for legislation in which they are
personally interested. The order reads as
follows:
ordered: That hereafter no postmas-
ter, postotiice clerk, letter carrier, rail-
way postal clerk. or other postal en-
ploye, shall visit Washington, whether
on leave with or without pay, for the
purpose of influencing legislation before
Congress.
ANY such employe Of the postal SER
vice VINO violates this order shall be Ii
able to removal.
"POstmaSters and other employees Of the
postal service are paid by the govern
ment for attending TO the respective du-
ties assigned them. which do not include
efforts to secure legislation. That duty
people elected for that purpose.

mendation is desired, ! am ready at all
