WHITE HOUSE,
WASHINGTON.
November 19, 1901.
My dear Sir:
The President has been informed that many of the
federal employees in Denver, Colorado, have been tak-
ing an active part in conducting political conventions.
He desires it fully understood by them that this is
highly undesirable; that they are not to act as chair-
men of political organizations nor to make themselves
unduly prominent in local political matters.
Very truly yours,
Secretary to the President.
Hon. E. A. Hitchcock,
Secretary of the Interior.
