McELFRESH, EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, July 14, 1886, Yo the Heads of the Departments in the Service of the General Government: Ideem this a proper time to especially warn all subordinates in the several deparunents and all olfice-holders under the generat govern- anent against the use of their ollicial positions in attempts to control political movements in their localities. Office-holders are the agents ot the people—not their masters. Not oniy is their time and labor due to the government, but they should scrupulously avoid in thelr political action, as Well as in the discharge of their official duty, offending by a display ot obtrusive partisanship their neighbors who have relations with them as public officials. ‘They should also constantly remember that tueir party friends from whom they Bave re ceived preierment have notinvested them with the power of arbitrarily managing their polit: cal attains, ‘They have ao right as uitice-holders to dictate tie political uetion of their party associates or to Unrotue ireedom ot action Wwituin party Ines by methods and practices winicu pervert every usetul und Justifuble pur. pose of party orgumization, ‘The iufluence of federal ollice-holders should. not be felt in the manipulation of political primary ‘meetings and hominating conventions. ‘The use by these officials of their pusitions to compass their selection as delexates to poiltieal conven: tions is Indecent and untuir, and proper regurd for the proprieties and requirements of offfelal piace will also prevent tueir assuning the Active conduct of political cumpuigus, Indi Vidual interest and activity In political amurs are by no means condemned.” Olfice-holders ure neither distranchised nor forbidden the ex- ereise of political privileges, but their privileges are not enlarged, nor is Lueir duty to party Loe creased to pernicious activity by olficesholding. ‘A just discrimination in this regard between Ube Unlngs a citizen may properly doand the purposes ior whicu u pubile office should not ve Used is easy, in the light of a correct apprecia- on of the’ relation between the peuple and those entrusted with officiul place ‘und & con sideration of the necessity under our form of government of politica! uction free from official covreion.

Mr, Pugh, from the committee on privileges and elections, presented a report in the election case of Senator Payne. Mr. Hoar, on behalf of himself and Mr. Frye, presented the dissenting views of the minority,and Mr, Evarts made a separate report, presenting the views ot him- self, Mr. Teller and Mr. Logan. All the reports were ordered printed in one document and were placed on the calendar, to be called up at any time asa privileged matter. ON THE RETIRED LIST. In the Senate today Mr. Sewell, from the military commitiee, reported. ills to place Gen. Alfred H. Pleasanton on the retired lst as major, and Gen. W. W. Averill on the retired list as captain. Mr, Logan asked leave to call up a joint reso- lution authorizing the Secretary of War to ac cepta deed and conveyance of a certain tract of land known as the Highwood, in Lake county, IiL, lying on Lake Michigah, twenty. five miles north of Chicago, containing 590 acres, for military put ‘he report of the military board (Gen.

Mr. Milliken (Me.) inquired how many more of these joint resolutions would be brought In. Mr, Randull replied that as many as were needed would be brought in. Mr. Danham remarked that they would be brought in as long as the Senate delayed the appropriation bills, Mr. Milliken said that the bilis were delayed in the Senate because they had been delayed in the House. ‘The font resolution was passed. THE ALLEGED JNTERPOLATIONS IN THE RECORD. Mr, Lowry. ({nd.) called up,as a privileged matter, the resolutions offered by him yester- day calling for an inguiry by the committee on rules as to the author of certain interpolations in the Recordin the matter ot @ colloquy be- tween Mr. Lowery and Mr. Glover (afo., some days ago, and in the matter of the substitution of One revolution for a totally diferent one re- ported from the committee on expenditures in the Treasury depar:ment on Tuesday last rela- {ive to alleged frauds by R. D. Lancaster, of St ouis. Mr. Glover said that not having been in the House when the resolution was offered yester- day—a fact which he bad no doubt Was the result of contrivance rather than ac-ident—he had learned this morning tnat an effort had been mad, not by Inadvertance but by design, to persuade the House that ne had been guilty of an{oterpolation ecord. The fact that the resolution reported from the eomuittee on ex- penditures in tie Treasury department had heen called to bis attention yesterday, and, naturully, as any man would, actuated by an honest desizn and not by gnaliciousuess, he had gone to the offcinM reporter an inquired in regard to the matier. The reporter had stated to him that it was a ‘mistake. He had called the attention of the gentleman from Arkansus (Mr, Breekinridge) to the matter and they nad concluded that” the gentleman froin Indiana (Mr. Lowry) had incorporated, by aeci- dent, the wrong resolution in his report. If the xentieman had not been actuated by a feeling unworthy of a member on this tor, have made the same inquiry and re same cunelusion, And sinee the gentleman from Indiana, “48 he understood it, dis- claimed any’ imputation on him in this connection, and did not charge or insinuate that’ he had been guilty ofa fraud be (Mr. Lowry) would take no excep- tion to the remark that any man who would make that statement—since the remark did not apply toamember of the House—was a biackguard and a liar. After some coutroversy as to whether or not Mr. Lowry had yesterday withdrawn that por- ton of the resolution referring to the colloquy between hiiseli and Mr, Glover, in order to settle the dilhiculty Mr. Lowry withdrew tat ortion. P'Me, Lowry referring to the colloquy, stated that he had taken vecusion to say then'that if he bad any future conversation with the gen- tleman he Would take care to have a third per- son present, In the Record he found that there had been appended to the colloquy @ statement purporting to have come from the gentlemaa from Missourl, that he (Mr. Lowry) Would not have made that remark if there hud been a third person present at tie conversation about which he was speaking. Kuowing that thatstatement had not been made on the floor he had gone to the printing office to muke in- quiries, Mr. Glover made the point of order that Mr. Lowry was nol speaking to the resolution pend- ng, but to the resolution whiei had been With- rawh, [Further House proceedings are rted under the heading of “District Day in the House."')

ANOTHER ALLEGED INTERPOLATION IN THE “RECORD.” Judge Lowry, ot Indians, called the attention of the House yesterday to an alleged interpola- tion in the Record. He thought there were words accredited to Mr. Glover, in his remarks concerning the Lancaster resolutions, which that gentleman had not uttered on the floor of the House, He sald also that the resolutions published in the Record were not the ones re- ported by him. The matter was allowed lo go over for further action. FUN IN TRE HOUSE. During the debate on the surplus resolution in the House yesterday Mr. McKinley, (rep.)
