The Correspondent s Watchword:--“Knowledge is Power, is Limit.”
KNOXVILLE. GA„ FRIDAY. JUNE 26 .
MUST CLEAR UP
RANK SCANDAL
President Firmly Tackles Pcstoffice
Department Affair.
GIVES EMPHATIC ORDER
Tells Postmaster General Payre That
Fraud Charged Atmosphere Hast
be Clarified at Once.
A Washington special says: An
emphatic order has gone forth from
the white house to Postmaster Gener-
al Payne, from President Roosevelt,
which in effect says: “Get at the
facts; I’ll be responsible for the con¬
sequences. The postoffice department
has got to be cleaned up and cleaned'
at once.’*
In consequence, the head of the post-
office department now seems to realize
that the president will tolerate no half¬
hearted investigation. So intense has
become the situation as regards the
pcstoffice scandals that no official oi'
the administration, however high up
he may be, feels competent to predict
where the investigation will end or
what more startling sensations it will
bring forth. At the department the ex¬
citement among the employes is on the
increase and pervades every branch.
This is regarded as a bad sign and ev¬
ery postoffice inspector in the employ¬
ment of the government is working
over hours in Washington and in other
parts of the country. Now that the in¬
vestigation has be« on *-he president de¬
clares that the accounts of every post-
office in the country shall be gone
through before this investigation stops.
A large force of inspectors has been-
dispatched to New York, and they al¬
ready have facts in hand which indi¬
cate that New York will prove almost
as fertile a field for scandal as is the
department at the capital.
Postmaster General Payne’s position
is one of increasing embarrassment.
Ineeed, his closest friends admit that
tte situation looks bad for him. When
/he Tulloch charges wore first m*de
Mr. Payne gave an interview to a doz-
en newspaper men at the postofflee
department, in which he declared the
Tulloch charges were so much “hot
air” and had no more weight than a
“stump speech.” The forthcoming re
port of Fourth Assistant Postmaster
Genera] Bristow, who is in charge of
the investigation, is said to sustain
practically every one of the Tulloch
charges. The postmaster general in¬
formed the president of this fact Tues-
day afternoon at a conference. The
president, while regretting to place Mr
Payne in an awkwar-J position, feels
that the Bristow report should be
made public, and he has so ordered.
Mr. Payne, therefore, will have to ia-
dorse a report confirming the charges
which he only a short while ago de¬
clared to be “hot air."
j Mr. Payne started out by making light
| of the charges that there was any scan¬
dal in the department. Although start¬
ling revelations had been made while
| the first assistant postmaster genera],
1 Mr. Wynne, was acting in Mr. Payne’s
absence in the West Indies last winter.
;yj r Payne upon his return declared
j that the , newspapers had kicked up too
much of a racket and he proposed that
the investigation should continue
quietly. He persistently laughed at
the charges that his department was
j n a r otten state of corruption. He ar
g Ue <i with the newspaper men in a
levitous vein that they were making
a mountain out of a mole hill, and that
there ... „„ hr, ^ the 8m „he
Mr Wynne had s-irred up.
There is no getting around the fact
that Mr. Payne has bungled the inves¬
tigation from the beginning. When the
president returned from the west ho
found things going in a very unsatis-
factory way despite the emphatic or-
ders he had telegraphed from various
points in his tour that the investiga-
tlon WHS to be pushed With rigor, and
the fact that the entire postal service
is undergoing a thorough inspection is
the result of the personal concern the
president has shown since his return.
