reduced salary
Can't Discredit Tulloch.
1t will not do for the men involved in
Mr.. Tulloch's revelations to attempt to
discredit them on the ground that they
come from a dismissed employee. Such
an attempt might have some effect out
side of Washington but it will have no
weight with men who know Seymour w.
Tulloch. The standing of the former
cashier of the Washington postoffice in
the business community of this city is
one that any man might be proud to have
He served for more than twenty years as
cashier OF the postoflice under republican
and democratic administrations alike and
never a breath of scandal was attached
to the conduct of his office. 1t was only
when. about the time of the appointment
OF Mr.. Merritt to be postmaster. an effort
was made to secure his cooperation in
certain irregularities in the Washington
postofiice, that trouble began. Mr.. Tul-
loch believed that If he made certain pay
ments as cashier either he or his bonds
men might be held responsible. In order
to protect himself and his bondsmen he
made the simple request that he have
written instructions from his superiors
1t was then that he was found to be an
''obstacle" and was removed from Of
flee.
Even more serious for the Roosevelt ad-
ministration. however. than the Tulloch
charges or anything else that has been
brought out, is the fact that is becom-
ing more evident every day that high
officials OF the administration would be
glad to have the whole Investigation drop

PRESIDENTS GREAT "TRIP.

RODS of Rest Planned.

Washington, D. c., April President
Roosevelt is going through just half
miles to meet multitudes of people in ev-
cry community, to respond scores CT
times undoubtedly TO demands for
speeches, and do all this in Sc days.
Such a whirl of travel has never before
