Sngton 80 days sick leave The heads
Of departments may give them that
leave if they so desire, but there il
nc law requiring it. On the other
hand, the law requires that limited
leave be granted for department
clerks outside of Washington In
1890 Is days were given to the clerks
and employees in first and second
class post offices, and to the employees
of the bureau of engraving and print
ing, which was extended in 1896 to
compositors and pressmen in the au-
diting division of that bureau.
Mr.. Robinson = If the gentleman
will pardon me, this is not sick leave,
but vacation. In the first place, the
printing department in Washington
has no sick leave; they get an an
nual vacation of 80 days, but they
do not receive a sick leave
Mr.. Hemenway-I call the gentle
mans attention to the error he
makes-that there is a 3O-days' sick
leave granted to other employees. The
table on. page II of the report
shows that they do not get 80 days

A CURE FOR DROPSY.

Ashley, North Dakota, June 2nd.-J.
II. Hanson of this place has found a
cure for Dropsy.
For years Mr.. Hanson himself has
suffered with Rheumatism of the
Heart and Dropsy, and of late has been
SO bad that he could not work.
He has tried many remedies but
nothing he could get helped him in the
least and he was growing worse and
worse.
Finally he began a treatment of
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and to his great
delight he soon found that the Drop
steal Swelling was gradually going
down and that the rheumatism of the
Heart was also disappearing. He
says:
81 have taken seven boxes of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and am feeling better
than l have for five years.
II am able to work again and if the
Dropsy or Heart Trouble ever comes
back will use Dodd's Kidney Pills at
once"

sick leave; that the average sick
leave, over and above the 80 days an
nual leave, is only three days and
fraction. Now, observe the state
ment: You take all of the depart
ments at Washington, and the av-
erage sick leave is only a fraction
over three days.
This debate was prolonged; but
sufficient is here quoted to show the
facts, and the animus of Mr.. Robin
son. Later in the day he announced
that he had prepared and would in
troduce a bill cutting off the sick
leaves of employees of the govern
ment. His attack upon the clerks
has caused a great deal of consterna-
ton among the civil service employees
of the government. Not less than
$4,000 people depend upon govern
ment employment for bread and but
ter.
There are clerks who absent them
selves from their desks and send word
that they are sick. when that report is
false. There are congressman whose
lives are as crooked as dogs hind leg
But it is not fair to assume that all
of a class are alike dishonorab BILE
AS a general rule when clerks report
themselves indisposed they are telling
the truth.
1t is customary for the executive de-
partments to permit clerks to have 80
days of sick leave every year, without
| deducting their pay for absence. This
| is merely humane. But the integrity
| of clerks is manifested when Mr.
Hemenway publicly reports that so
| few clerks report themselves sick that
in all of the executive departments the
average sick leave is ''only a fraction
over three days" That shows that
| thousands of clerks never take any
| sick leave at all, while other thousands
take only such leave as they are emit
tied to, on account of impaired health.
The writer knows of five individual
| cases in which good clerks after hav-
| ing been absent sick for 80 days, were
| required to resign their positions on
| account of continued sickness. This
| was a great hardship, to lose an in
| come when illness required the ex-
pense of medical attendance and med
| zeal skill. In each case the depart
ments held their positions for them,
and four of the good clerks recovered
and were restored within year If
! a Sick clerk is absent more than year.
| the civil rules will not permit restora-
| ton to Office. One of the clerks re-
| ferred to above died within a year
after losing his place.
There are thousands of ladies in Of
| fee. some of them in delicate health.
| They have children or parents or other
dear ones dependent upon them. They
are conscientious and faithful. Many
of them go to their desks to work when
they have swimming headaches. or
other ailments, and they do not shirk.
Not many days ago a young lady
tainted at her desk in the office of the
auditor of the post office department.
While worthy of commentator.
that young lady is only one of a class
of worthy women, all of whom deserve
praise. 1t is unfair that any censure or
shadow of censure should be aimed at
them. They are worthy public serv-
ants all. And the majority of the men
are like unto them for fidelity.

The Legislative appropriation bill
was under consideration recently,
and Mr.. Hemenway, of Indiana, hav-
ing charge of the BILL was inter-
rupted by Mr.. Robinson, of Indiana,
with inquiries which led up to an in
teresting subject. The debate was
carefully reported, and it appears in
the Congressional Record as fol-
lows:
Mr.. RObinsOn-I desire to call the
attention of the gentleman to the
subject of the sick leave of employees
in the departments, subject to
which the committee addresses itself
largely in the report. l understand
that in the executive departments in
Washington the heads of those de.
partments may require not less than
seven hours service of employees and
not more than eight hours, and that
these employees are granted an an
nual leave of 80 days with pay, and
in addition to that they have 80 days
sick leave with pay each year.
Mr.. HemenWay-I want to call the
gentleman's attention to this fact
just to correct the statement he
makes. The law requires that they
shall perform not less than seven
ment may call upon them to put in
II hours day if he is SO disposed.
Mr.. Robinson-Under the law, can
they be required to perform more
than eight hours work?
Mr.. Hemenway-Yes.
Mr.. RobinsOn-NOw, the gentleman
has said that there is no abuse of
the sick-leave privilege in Washing
ton
Mr. Hemenway - The gentleman
does not want to misquote me. l say
that in instances there is abuse of
the sick leave in Washington, that in
many instances there is abuse of it;
but on the whole the result is not
bad.
Mr. RobinsOn-The gentleman does
not hold the heads of departments
responsible for this, because he SAYS
they are doing the best they can I'M
der the law. This is only the position
in which L desire to place the gen
tleman. L believe he says that; but
the fact nevertheless remains that
this abuse exists, and l want to ask
him if his committee have considered
this branch of the question, that the
government employees here in Wash
ington have 60 days leave of absence
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1902-06-11

with pay, while the employees of the
government outside of the city of
Washington many of them have no
leave of absence at all, while others
have but Is days leave of absence,
and none have the sick-leave privi-
leges unless they are connected. with
the executive departments here in
the city of Washington. Now, has
the gentleman's committee consid-
cred the question of reducing the
sick leave, or cutting it away alto
gether, as a privilege granted to the
executive employees in Washington?
] rather hoped he would do that so
there would be some means of equal
ization of the privileges of vacation
of all employees throughout the
United States.
