SPOIuS IN THE WASHINGTON
POSTOFFICE.

OO1OI 4OlI'
The postotfice scandal which reflects
SO seriously On the integrity Of high
officials is growing worse each dav.
and the department is forced to face
a new set of accusations which appear
in report by President Proctor of the
Civil Service Commission. 1t should
be noted, however, that the gravest
of these charges relate principally to
violations Of the law which antedate
the term of Postmaster General Payne.
as they are ascribed to the years 1900,
1901.
The Was ington postoffice, it would
appear, was run to a large extent upon
spoils principles. Persons were ap
pointed to classified POSITIONS without
examination s'by the devious method
of appointment in small unclassi6ed
offices or in Offices about to be consoli-
dated and subsequent transfer and
appointments of those labors who were
appointed aud separated during the
administration Of the present postm as
ter.n Indications are afforded, says
the report, that the department used
this Office for political and personal
purposes to an extent which left the
authority of the postmaster in trans
fers and appointments Of this sort but
little more than nominal, and placed
the Office in many respects in the re-
lation of bureau to the department.
In some cases there was direction
from the department, in others there
were requests or suggestions by high
department officials which had the
force of direction,
I he report then goes on to give an
instance of the packing of the postal
service just before classification.
'sNearly all the clerks and messengers
in the rural free delivery service who
were covered into the classified service
we're in positions in Washington, ID G. y
1t appears, moreover, that the num-
Der of the appointments in the month
of the classification was more than
twice as great as for the preceding
four month. and that during the en-
tire eight cen months that this service
has been classified there have been II
persons selected for appointment with
in the District of Columb ia, as against
fifty six clerks and messengers APP
pointed during the twenty. six days pre-
ceding classification. These rush APP
pointed during the twenty-six days
preceding classification, These rush
appointments were clearly excessive
and at that very time the commission
had registers of eligibles ample for all
needs
Mr.. Proctor believes that the provi-
sions of the revised rules which went
into effect April Is, 1908. will prevent
the s.buses in the classified service and
hopes for effective regulations for the
employment of laborers in the Wash
ington postoffice, but this report en-
phasizes the necessity for constant
vigilance in the administration of the
law, showing as it does that shifty
politicians never relax their vigilance
in trying to defeat it's purpose.
