THE oFFENsEs
l. !. OF A CONGRESSMAN

From the Colo. Springs Telegraph.
l A number of the newspapers of
Colorado are calling attention to
what appears to be gross violstion
OF the spirit and letter of the postal
laws of the, United States upon the
part of Congressman Edward Keat-
ing, who was elected last year as a
congressman-at-larg from Colorado.
The offense accredited to Con-
gresham Keating consists in send
ing out scores. II not hundreds Of
letters. to, constituents all .over bis
present congressional district, the
Third, soliciting the support of these
1constituents for reelection on the
ground that the public business de-
tains Mr. Keating in Washington,
and. therefore. he il unable to come
west and make personal canvass.
The postal law says tnat franked
envelopes sent through the malls
without the payment Of postage may
only be used upon matters of pub
lie business" and that the penalty
for private use is 5000. One news
paper in Congressman Keatfns dis
trict has figured that If he has sent
out 1000 of these letters in frank
ed envelopes that the government
could levy a total fine on him of.
about $4,000. 1000. I
It may be that the postofffce Of
ficials may not see fit to take up
this matter, but. certainly, the re-
election of Congressman Keating is
\ In no sense matter of public busi-
ness, but is wholly matter of pri-
jvate concern between the people of
Colorado and Edward Keating. In
deed. the public business, SO far as
1.-THE people in Colorado are concerned.
may go on very much better II Mr..
lKeating is relegated to private life.
These letters to constituents from
Icongressmen have always been con-
itjdered matters Of private concern,
hut not public business, and have
carried two-cent stamp. even
though their speeches as parts of
1.-THE Congressional Record have been
carried free. The Telegraph has not
received one of these fraiiked appeals
from Mr., Keating, not being in his
district, but we have seen many ref
erences to these postage free letters
in various newspaper of his district.
And, II the facts are as stated by
them. then Mr.. Heating owes the
postoffice department two cents for
every one of these, letters he has
sent out. and the government would
be justified in taking prompt steps
i to collect this money, for the Vffense
as alleged constitutes a gross breach
Iof congressional decorum and clear
ly transgresses the letter and spirit
of the postal rules and regulations.

All Might Desire a Moratorium"

You need a dictionary to keep up
with the words and phrases which a
war resurrects. Here comes our ven
cradle but long buried friend "mor-
atorium.p "King George has signed
proclamation of moratorium" that
is cable dispatch. All of us might
devoutly wish somebody would do as
much in our individual cases-that is
to say, give up permission to postpone
the payment of our debts. Applied to
the Bank of England, a moratorium
in effect means that it can issue a
larger amount of bank notes against
a given amount of gold reserves. In
short, the Old Lady of Threadneedle
Street may and will put out big
bunch of fiat money to appease hum
CRY borrowers.
