any officers or employees of the United
States, was quoted, and all persons
serving under this department were
required to observe strictly the prohi-
billions of this law, and were recon-
mended to refrain from service on po-
litical committees charged with the
collection or disbursement of funds.
now repeat the injunctions of that cir
cular, and add the following further
directions on this subject:
Rule No. 2 of the civil service rules
provides that no person in the execu-
tive civil service shall use his official
authority or official influence for the
purpose of interfering with an election
or control the result thereof. The
spirit of the civil service laws and
rules renders it highly undesirable for
federal officers and employees to take
an active part in political conventions
or in the directions of other parts of
political machinery. Persons in the
government service under this depart
ment should not act as chairmen of
political organizations nor make them
selves unduly prominent in local po-
litical matters. 1t is expected and re-
CURED that all officers and employees
OF this department shall act in entire
conformity with the views herein set
| forth -

Chicago, Dec. 16--In reply to letter
of coincidence semitic Mrs. William Nc
Kinley, Colonel Walter Fieldhouse, sec
rotary of the West Park board, has re-
ceiyed letter from Judge Henry NJ.
Harter. of Canton, part of which
touches upon the physical condition of
the widow of the martyred President.
1t is in part as follows:
while Mrs. McKinley's health is not
robust and she is far from well wo-
man, | am glad to say to you that if
her condition shows no great improve
ment it certainly shows no decline. Her
great sorrow is with her al the time,
and she grieyes continually about the
death of President But while this
is true, it is also true that her physi-
cal condition is much better than it
was when you were here during the
obseQuies."

HENDERSON WAS OFFENDED.
Resigns From Metropolitan Club Be
cause of Insult from Attache.

Washington, Dec. 16.-The board of
directors of the Metropolitan club have
before them the resignation of Speaker
Henderson of Iowa. but it is possible
that it may be withdrawn. 1t was ten
dered few days ago, but no action has
been taken other than an effort to have
the speaker reconsider the matter and
withdraw his resignation. The cause
that led to the resignation was a mis-
take on the part of one of the attaches.
A few evenings ago Mr.. Henderson in
vited a prominent citizen to dine with
him at the club. While in one of the
reception rooms the attache interrupt
ed the conversation by calling Mr.
Henderson's attention to rule which
prohibits members from entertaining
guests who live within a prescribed ter
ritory to the club. There was but one
of two things for the speaker to do
accompany his guest to the door and
say goodbye or go elsewhere and have
dinner.
The latter course was adopted. Lat
er Mr.. Henderson sent his resignation
as a member of the club to the board
of directors. The attache who COM
mitted the blunder has offered an
apology and the speaker has been re-
|quested to withdraw the resignation.
He is now considering the matter.

ANTI-PAsS BILL AGAIN.
Representative Hughes Will Introduce

Representative John Hughes Jr.. of
Iowa county will introduce at the com
ing session of the legislature his anti
pass bill which gained him such no.
tor1ety two years ago. Mr.. Hughes
says that he has not changed his mind
about the necessity for such bill, and
inasmuch as it came within one vote
OF passing the house he believes that
there is demand for such bill
again.
Mr.. Hughes was chairman of the
committee on congressional districts
in the last assembly, and was also a
member of the committee on ways and
means, suppression of intemperance
banks and banking, labor, private cor
porations, military and county and
township organization.
Mr.. Hughes is a strong believer in
the reforms advocated by John Her
riott, was Cummins man during the
last campaign, and is thoroughly in
accord with the principles of the men
who viii control the coming legisla-
ture.
He has been mentioned in connec-
ton with the craftsmanship of the COM
mittee on ways and means along with
Clarke Of Dallas.

DEATH OF L. D. M'GLAsHoN.
Former ottumwan Passes Away at De
Soto, Missouri.

On Monday morning of last week
occurred the death, at De Soto, Mo-,
of Lorenzo Dow McGlashon, formerly
of this city, but who has for several
years been resident of the town
where his death occurred. Mr.. Nc
Glashon was born at Chagrin Falls.

four children were born, all of whom
are living. They are: Lorenzo d..
Mrs. Mary ]. White, Donald S., and
Miss Lucille McGlashon.
Mr., McGlashon was a civil engineer.
and superintendent the work of putting
the first paving in the Ottumwa
streets. He had many friends in OF.
tumwa and also in De Soto his late
home, and much grief is expressed on
account of his demise. His sister
Miss Miranda McGlashon, resides on
West Main street in this city. His
mother and William McGlashon, his
brother. reside in Chicago.

While the conditions above mention
ed have been fulfilled the districts are
not geographically proportional. The

as badly as does the present monkey
wrench district, while the Fifth as
outlined offers the same objections
The Seventh, Eighth and Ninth remain
unchanged.
Glover's Plan.
John F. Glover, of Sibley, in the
Eleventh district, which district is the
/ loudest in it's demands for reappor
tionment, has a plan which meets al
three conditions named above. 1t is
as follows:
/ Take Davis and Keokuk from the
Sixth district and add them to the
First.
Take Marion from the Seventh ant
Marshall from the Fifth and add then
to the Sixth.
Take Boone from the Tenth and ado
it to the Seventh.
Take Hardin from the Third an(
Hamilton from the Tenth and ado
them to the Fifth.
Take Winnebago from the Tenth ant
add it to the Fourth.
! Take Hancock from the Tenth ant
add it to the Third.
Take Sac and Ida from the Elev
enth and add them to the Tenth.
| Leave the Second, Eighth and Nintl
districts as they are.
This plan meets all of the require
ments as far as republican majoritie:
are concerned, and also keeps the pre-
sent congressman in their districts.
The objections are that the miro
district is strung out across the stat,
at greater length than before, ant
that the Fifth is made to initiate thu
Third.
Payne's plan concentrates the coun
ties and makes much better geogra
phical division than at present, o
than is contained in either of the 9th
err plans. but as stated before, ignores
the rights of the present COMPRESSION
al delegation.
