Sunday morning globe., 1901-12-08

The Government Printing Office has for
some time afforded very little cause for
criticism II IS true now as it has been from
the beginning that there are ON its staff of
over 900 employees many unworthy per-
SONS. a- well as not afew baruacles with au
odd half ir-esp pousibic and wholly unfit iudi-
vidual OF individuals holding down jobs
from which even the Public Printer Is unable
todislodgo them. And thi- i- equally true of
3ll the permanent departments of the gov
eminent The GLOBE however for the
present is dealing with the G. r. o. and the
illustrations furnished are confined oxelu-

Rumor has reached us that for some
cause we have "let up on the Government
Printing Office The cause" is that de-
velopmcnts there have been insufficient to
warrant the expenditure of adjecuves
Recently, however, some of the more
notorious of the unworthy employees have
gotten it into their heads that they can
again cut up and friss around with i'm
punity and that the GLOBE will not notice
them This is a delusion they are laboring
under and as an evidence of that fact the
GLOBE desires to admouish Captain Mar.

not and will not be made a subject for
criticism
His career in Leadville has no interest
for us, but his behavior as a government
employc has If there is not a decided and
speedy change in the latter there will be
some unpleasant facts cited for the iuforma-
ton of Public Printer Palmer and Grand
Vizier Ricketts,.
