UPHELD BY PRESIDENT TAFT.
Federal EmpIOye VIII Keep Job as
Mayor OF Vienna, Vn.

Federal employees can also hold munic-
ipal Offices according TO a decision Just
made by President Taft IN the case OF
George E. King, Of the Forest Service,
who has been elected mayor Of Vienna,
Va. The President is anxious to see
every one take an interest in municipal
affairs.
When Mr.. King was elected TO the
mayoralty II was thought that by ac-
cepting the place he would run afouI
Of the Civil Service Commission.
President Grant issued an order in 1873,
which forbad Federal employees holding
either State or municipal positions. When
Mr.. King started his campaign, his op-
ponents dug up this old law and put the
civil service authorities on his trail.
The question then assumed big pro-
portions, and was put up TO Acting Sec
rotary Of Agriculture Hayes for an opin-
ion. He promptly passed it to President
Taft, who wrote back from Beverly that
Mr.. King could hold both positions.
The law was passed during the early
reconstruction days. ands in the PresI-
dents opinion served its purpose and IS
now a back number.
