Lewis, states that two days after be, as a member of the republican congressional executive comimttee of his district, voted for resolutions endorsing Roosevelt for president, a postoffice Inspector, W. J. Marie, arrived in Birmingham and ordered Lewis to answer charges of "pernicious political activity." The "activity" Is stated to have been committed In May, 1911, and December, 1910. One "offense" was fourteen months old, and the other nine months old.

But they were warmed up two days alter the postmaster declared for Roosevelt. Lewis wrote to the Inspector: You shut your eyes to the most flagrant example of "pernicious political activity" in behalf of President Taft, while you direct the searchlight of Jour investigations along these lines only against a l'ew postmasters who have expressed a preference for Roosevelt. The Alabama situation has become so noisome that Senator Bris-tow recently introduced a resolution to inquire into and report to the senate whether postoffice inspectors are being sent through the country as political emissaries to influence postmasters to aid in the election of delegates for or against. -t: The farm that supplies the south with Kentucky-bred saddle and harness horses.

The honorable city commissioners last night at tbe regular legislative meeting took up a request that at least $10,000 be added to the $75,000 appropriated for the support of the city schools during 1912, and, in the absence of Com-mlsisoner Brassell on account oi sickness, postponed decision until the administrative session Wednesday. Honorable Commiejloners Letcher and Mclntyre thought the additional amount asked for to be impracticable on account of other obligations which must be met.

Honorable Commissioners Gunter and Joseph were willing to make the appropriation. Unless the amount be appropriat ed, the school board declare the necessity to close up the Lanier schiui and abolish fifteen brades, or to reduce the nine months' term by two months. Contract was let for $36,000 of street paving on Jeff Davis avenue betwesn Goode and Cleveland ave nue, and of South street from Fel- der avenue to within a short distance of the city limits, the Southern Asphalt and Construction Company being the successful bidder, The paving will be asphalt.

D. Barker la postmaster at Mobile, Alabama.

He la also the member from his state on the republican national committee. And, more than all that, he Is President Taft's referee for Alabama, and that means that he Is tbe official dispenser of patronage. (A referee is technically an "adviser of the postoffice department," to decide matters of dispute, records, etc. Familiarly, the president's referee Is his official dispenser of patronage for the state. Some states have one referee, eome two.

Often in northern states they are members of congress, but, In tbe unrepresented south, they dispense the offices, untroubled by elected representatives of the peo ple.) This postmaster at Mobile has re cently committed som9 of his re cent activities to writing. The let ters are written to the chairman of the Clay county republican commit tee. Barker problem is to force the republican politicians of Ala bama into line for Taft. He pro poses to do it by promising to clean out pro -Roosevelt office-holders. He will accomplish this by "sicking postoffice inspectors on to their records.

In their place he will have Taft adherents appointed. His let ters speak for themselves. (The matter in parentheses Is our own explanation): Republican National Committee. P. D.

Barker. Mobile, Feb. 13, 1912. Mr. James W.

King, Ashland, Ala. Dear Mr. King: On your recommendation I have recommended the appointment of Joseph W. Clifton as postmaster at Hollins, C'ay county, and wrote Mr. Long suggesting he do the same.

Presume the appointment will be made at an early date. While in Washington recently with Mr. Long (Pope W. Long, a Tafc adherent who was elected chairman of the state republican executive committee at a convention whose action has been expressly repudiated by the national comimttee), we talked about the matter at Ashland and Lineville again, and we think we made considerable progress. Presume you and the parties whose names you gave ma will be interviewed on the matter at an early date.

The words in Italics mean that Mr. Barker has arranged to have postoffice inspectors sent out to work up a case against the postmasters at Ashland and Lineville. This without doubt was done "while in Washington recently." This is much worse than mere defiance of Roose-ve't's executive order or June 15, 1907, that civil-service employees "shall take no active part in political campaigns." The letter continues: How is everything progressing up at your end of the bailiwick. The opposition, I hear, are claiming you ana otner friends because of our failure to get certain changes made, I hope you will not allow anything of that sort to Influence you, as 1 have no doubt we will win out in the end. Don't forget that Thompson (Joseph O.

Thompson, a Roose velt adherent, chairman of the state republican executive committee) was In the saddle such a long time that we had to overcome his influence with inspectors, etc. But, of course, you know that if he, Hundley (Judge Oscar R. Hundley, a lawyer of Birmingham, a velt man), and Roosevelt should suc ceed. Carwile and the present in cumbents would receive their Bup port. As you know, Thompson recommended Carwile and Miss Cas- sie L.

Davis, who would have been appointed long ago but for my op position. Yours sincerely, P. D. Barker. Is there any possible self-revela tion that could more appropriately described as "pernicious pol'tical activity?" The term used inside the postoffice department when an inspector is sent out from Washington to hunt down a postmaster whom the administration wishes to replace with a Taft man Is "sent with instructions." Here, in another letter from this postmaster of Mobile, is the frankest possible avowal from official sources of the way in which the power of the postoffice department and the spying activities of the post-office inspectors are used as political weapons: know we are becoming more and more a civil-service government, and that while postmasters themselves are not under civil service, there is a rule prevailing that where an official's record is good that he shall only be removed for cause.

This record, of course, as you understand. Is made by inspectors, and as Mr. Thompson lias until quite recently been looked up to as the factotum of the party and the inspector's headquarter! for your locality while in Birmingham, and they knowing that he was veryi greatly interested In the retention! of certain people, it is presumable' that they would not wish to hunt up objections to his friends. not only have assurances but no doubt that we shall eventually succeed in having your friends appointed at Ashland, Lineville, and LaFayette. And I hope that you and your friends will not lose confidence in Mr.

Long and myself being able to accomplish It. .1 understand that the inspector has been to Linevlile, but not to Ashland. Please let me know if be has been there yet Yours vry tmly, P. D. Barker.

(8pe eljU.) -The destroyer Henley, representing a type of torpedo boat destroyer new to the American navy, was aucccBKfully launched today at tbe yard of the Fore River Shipbuilding company.
