The Presidents Renlx.

The Presidents Reply.
To this under date of January %,
the president replied:
Dear Mr.. Secretary:
For reasons which have deeply
impressed themselves in my heart and
mind I would never consent to consid-
er your resignation on any ground
that was based on the good of the SER
vice or helping me personally or po-
litically for no such ground is tenable
by me. Only on the score of your
health or personal convenience or to
prevent further precuniary sacrifice
on your part, will consider the pos
sibility of accepting your resignation.
But not even on the latter grounds
can 1 consider 1t until after congress
adjourns, until after all unjust at
lacks are ended, until after 1 have had
the benefit of your valuable and ne
cessary aid during the remainder of q
crowded session and until we have
reached the calm period which I hope
will follow the present hurry and pres
sure and necessity for constant action
and watching, incident to the close of
a short session. Then I'll take it up
and answer you at length.
sincerely yours,
civilian H. TAFT
It was not until yesterday that Sec
Rotary Ballinger renewed his request
for the acceptance of his resignation.
he ola SO IN THIS letter, OdteQ Marcn
eth:
Request Is Renewed.
my Dear Mr. President:
LAS you fully appreciate I entered
the government service under protest
and at great personal sacrifice.
while occupying the office of sec
rotary of the interior my most earn
est and conscientious attention has
been given to the interests of the gov
eminent and I feel that in construc-
tive work and the advancement of the
public service under existing difficult
ties, I have nothing to regret in Off
cial administration except that my
health and financial interests have
greatly suffered to the extent that I
cannot longer sustain the burden
your constant support has always
been a source of consolation during all
the vicissitudes of my term of service
and I deeply appreciate the unfailing
confidence you have reposed in me-
l must, however. renew my appeal to
be relieved as set forth in my letter
of January 10 last, and respectfully
ask you to designate the time when
my resignation shall take effect which
I hope may be Immediately. 1 have
the honor to remain,
Faithfully yours,
"R. A. BALLINGERt'
