He is not wanted there any more, He is even requested to leave town, mind you, and a brosd bint given him that if he does not clear out he will have no show at all for his office. Poor fellow! ‘The office seeker who has been successfal and obtained his appointment will probably ax with righteous indignation: “Serve ‘em right, the beggars! Why don’t they go away and gi the President a rest.” He can afford to be in- dignant. He is drawing his salary. But how about the under dog in the fight?

DISCUSSED BY THE POLITICIANS. The President's prociamation formed the chief topic of conversation among the politi- | cians today. ,The expressions regarding it | varied in character according to the condition of the speaker. Senators and Representatives with large and active constituencies were in- clined to favor the President's stand, for it re- lieved them of a great deal of pressure from | importuning followers who needs must be sented to the President and their claims for off ‘ocated. At the same time the procla- mation is not taken to apply asa bar to Sena- tors and Kepresentatives, nor to mean that they cannot present themselves at the White House to discuss patronage with the President. It bars out the multitude, but lets in the select. In other words, it is xance for the goose, but not sauce for the gander. THE RANK AND FILE KICK. On the other hand,the rank and file of politi- cians are loud in their denuygiation of the or- der shutting out the people from personal in- terviews with the President about matters in which they and the committies in which they reside are vitally interested. They say that one reason why there has been such a crowd in Washington and so much pressure upon the President is because the 1m- pression got abroad among the people that this administration intended to break up ring rule and bossism in politics, to pay less atten- tion to the recommendations of Senators and Representatives and local party leaders and more to the indorsements of the people direct. Citizens obtained the idea that they were in- vited to nome torment with oases and to speak up in their own right, ‘y responded to tbe invitation and now find themselves turned down at the threshold. The politicians say that the order will have the effect of making a close corporation of the Patronage system by giving Senators and Rep- Tesentatives the sole right to talk with the President abont appointments, and that the President will thus debarred from heari the voice of the people at large on the fitness: candidates put forward for appointment to office. was indeed blue Monday for i if ! iter » f i Ht SOME INDIGNATION. ‘The politicians express undisguised indigna- tion at the’ closing sentence of the President's proclamation, which says: “Applicants for office will only prejudice their prospects by repeated importunity and by remating at Washington to await results,” They think that the Presi- dent has no right to virtually send them away from the city and threaten them with his dis- favor if they persist in asking for that to which they claim a perfect right in at least re- questing, and which the President has himself asked at the hands of the people—appointment to office. They loudly prociaim against what term au arbitary exercise of power by the President in refusing audience to men who have public business with bim, but do not west official position. They ‘point to the Fics that this is the first time in American bie. tory when a President of the United States has shut the door in the faces of private citizens who come to discuss public affairs in which they are interested. ARGUMENTS FOR THE PRESIDENT. In opposition to these opinions some argu- ments are advanced on the President's side of the case. It is urged that he has borne with patience the personal solicitations of the peo- ple for two months: that as a matter of fact ‘the personal presence of the applicants is sel- dom necessary. Dapers and indorsements are filed in the cases of offices for which the ma- jority of bis callers have been applicants, and ‘action is taken upon the papers in the case Continued on Sizth Page. ; i cither side, and the faitufal chaplain following him, room.
