May Prosecute Wood.

Register and Leader: Washing
ton, D. C.sOct. 6.-The republican
state central committee has got into
trouble with the civil service COM
mission State Chairman Frank ?.
Wood has sent letters TO government
employees from Iowa who are under
civil service asking them to con-
tribute 10 the campaign fund. Some
Of these letters have been addressed
to offices where these employees work
in plain violation, it is charged, OF
civil service-la These facts have
been called to the attention of the
civil service commission, and Com
missioner Greene said today that the
civil s.rvice law had been clearly
violated and that the commission
had written TO Chairman Woods de-
manding that the requests for con-.
tributions be Withdrawn. Should
the letters not be withdrawn there
will be prosecution Of State Chair
man Woods and probably of the en-
tire committee, as the names OF the
committeeman appear on the letter
heads. The commission last year
had some trouble with State Chair
man Spence but it appeared that
Spence did not address letters to
any OF the government offices, and
thus avoided ENHANCEMENT with the
law.
In his letter Mr.. Woods urges
early contributions and among other
things says: You secured your pc
sition from republican administra-
ton. The democratic party this
year is making very active cam
paign in Iowa and their leaders are
freely predicting the election Of a
number of congressman from this
state and also several state officers.
OF course, you are aware that it re-
quires considerable funds to keep up
a state organization where it is 60
ing to have any great amount Of
efficiency. We must makea special
effort. contributing as literally as
possible, to elect republican con-
gresham from your district with as
large a vote as can be honorably OBJ
tanned.
Attention is called to the fact that
heretofore the railroad companies
have furnished passes to a great

parties, but this year that will moi

that they are SO regarded by others
