LETTERS SHOW

was in operation more than 100
years ago are shown in the efforts
of Nathaniel Pope. then secretary
of the Illinois Territory. to secure
house rent from Albert Gallatin, sec
retary of the United States Treas
ury Letters between the two have
been discovered by the state ar
chives department and are being
bound.
The first letter was written by
Pope to Gallatin, May II, 1909, trans
mitting his expense vouchers. 81
wish to deal candidly with you"
Pope said 81 have lived in house
belonging to my wife's father. (Eli-
jah Backus), who certainly would
never have charged me rent. But
If friend should furnish the sec
retary with an office for nothing,
it being a personal favor, 1t is no
argument against his charging the
government a reasonable price for
occupation"
Pope apparently used his home
for an office and asked the secre-
tary of the treasury to pay him of
flee rent of $l2 a month. He asked
$50 for contingent expenses"
Gallatin answered him June 8,
and requested that Popes father-in-
law sign vouchers for the office
rent and added as a touch of sar-
casm that his father-in.law might
afterward make a present of the
money to yourself or any other per
son" He added, however, that SAC
per annum is considered the highest
sum which ought to be allowed foi
rent of an office.
Pope replied that he thought 81
was the minimum he should be al
lowed for office rent. He said he
believed the secretary should have
two rooms, lone to lodge in and the
other for the public papers of his
Office
The compromise was finally made
at SIS month and Pope, perhaps a
little incensed at the conservative
policy of Gallatin. Immediately be
gan another controversy with him as
to whether the secretary had to
supply Governor Edwards of the
Illinois Territory with stationery.
