THE FACTS IMPAR
TIALLY PRESENTED.
Without Bias, We Offer Just What
Passed Between the Re
publican Leaders.
The comment and discussion occa
sioned by the resignation of Secretary of
the Commonwealth Frank Heeder and
tcputy Attorney tieneral John P. El
kln, from the cabinet of Governor Hast
ings hns become state wide. In many
Instances there Is a misapprehension
of the whole ufTulr. Those opposed to
the principles of the Republican party
and the success of that organization,
have in many cases taken advantage of
the opportunity to distort facts und
shade truths, while ultra fat tlonallsts
have sometimes lien biased in their
judgment. We therefore deem It but
full- to all v ho are involved la the
talked of bond" or "agreement," which

ctnplnyts engaged during the recent
sissi"ii of tin- b".;h, latino, that all the
facts In tin- case be Impartially and

It is ihi ' i ii h individual concerned,
each Individual's friend, as well as the
Ki'puHiian party, that the public
should have a clear ami comprehensive
Utah rstauili'ig of the whole proceeding.
And to be certain that each reader may
lie left to draw his own conclusion and
make his own deductions, and lender
Intelligent judgment in the premises,
Instead of giving a brief resume of the
matter as we might personally view It,
we, In fairness to nil parties Involved,
prefer to present the notes exchanged
between those to whom public atten
tion has been directed, believing that
this means will more distinctly and un
mistakably bring out the facts and lay
before the friends of each, and the pub
lic, the whole matter with impartiality,
thus doing full Justice to Governor
Hastings, Attorney General MeCor
mlek, General Frank Heeder and Gen
eral John V. Elkln, the last named be
ing the head of the Republican or
ganization of the state. The whole
"bond" or "agreement" proceeding Is
included In the following correspon
dence. GEN. HERDER'S RESIGNATION.
The first olllclul act in the affair was
the request from Governor Hastings to
Secretary of the Commonwealth Frtonk
Heeder for the hitter's resignation. The
resignation was presented, and later
the two met by appointment In Harris
burg. General Heeder usked the gov
ernor to assign reasons fo his removal.
They were given, among them being
the complaint that General Heeder had,
with others, placed his name on a
"bund" or "agreement" which had as
its purpose the indemnification of the
state treasurer for advances made to
extra employes engaged about the re
cent legislature. General Heeder fully
explained his position and then retired.

GENERAL KI. KIN'S 1 TU, EXI'LA-NATION.
The ex-deputy attorney general then
sent to Attorney General McCornilck a
lengthy answer to the reasons as
signed for his removal from the oliice
of deputy attorney general. It Is clear
and dignified, and we present It with
out comment. It is as follows:
Hon. Henry (!. McCornilck, Attorney Gen
eral, liarrlsbiirg, I'a.
My Hear General: I haVe the honor to
acknowledge the receipt of your com
munlcuUon of recent date, setting forth
reasons for requesting my resignation as
deputy attorney general. It Is gratifying
to know that my olliclal relations ami
professional work while connected with
the legal department have merited your
approbation and receive your commenda
tion.
You speak of the reluctance with which
you state to the public the reasons for
my removal. It Is much better, In my
Judgment, that you should state your
reasons by a letter addressed to mo than
that the public press should nsslgn them
for you. For this reason I requested
them. 1, too, desire to assure you that It
would hnve been more agreeable to me to
have remained silent on the subject, but
1 would he untrue to myself, unfair to the
public und unjust to my friends If I failed
to make answer to your charges.
Inasmuch as you have based my re
moval upon grounds which involve my
official Integrity, 1 assume there can bo
no Impropriety In my stating all the facts
In connection with the transaction about
which you complain.
You Will remember that the net nf 11.71
passed after the adoption of the new con
stitution, designated the employes of the
senate and house of representatives. This
act remained unchanged until l.sy'i, al
though Ii was known to every one famil
iar with legislative routine that there
were not a siilllelent number of employes
therein designated to do the work and
transact the business of the legislature.
This act provided for the appol lent of
only two transcribing clerks in the house
and two In the senate. This was not a
sulliclent number to do the w ork necessary
to be done in the transcribing rooms, and
it became necessary to employ additional
clerks during the sessions of the legis
lature. These additional Clerks were paid
out of contingent funds or provide, I for
by Items In the general appropriation bill.
lor more llian IM years this has been the
uniform ami unbroken custom of the lcir-
lelatllle.
it l In- opening of I'm h session ll Is
the practice of the slate committees of
the senate and bouse to Select the appoint.-
for the different placis. These
appointees are recommended by members
of th,. respective boilles. At the begin
ning of I lie last session of the legislature
Senator Thomas, who was chairman of
the slate ciuiiinlttee. called upon the gov
ernor for the purpose or securiip; Ids ap
proval of the appointment of a number
of extra employes whose services were
not only desirable, but necessary in the
senate. It was suggested that the number
of appointees provided for In the acts
of ls', and IMij were not sulliclent to prop
erly transact the business of that body.
The governor, after carefully considering
the whole question, approved the appoint
ment of a clerk to each of the following
committees: Appropriations, corpora
lions, linance, judiciary general, Judici
ary special, municipal affairs, railroads.
compare lulls and agriculture. This, made
In all nine clerks to committees of. the
senate, to which he gave his uuqiial'llled
upprovul.
A short time after this Representative
Marshall, chairman of the slate commit
tee of the house, and some others called
upon the governor with a view of se
curing his approval to the appointment
of some additional clerks and extra em
ployes in the house of representatives.
At tins time the governor approved the
appointment of a clerk to each of the
following named house committees: Rall-
ro.uis. corporation, municipal affairs, city
by which advances could be made on the
salary of tuts person.
The treasurer very frankly told me tTmt
tlvre was so much contention and fac
tional illsaord In the legislature that lu
had no assurance the compensation for
the extra employes would be provided
for by proper legislation. He thought
It was unfair that he should assume Cm
responsibility und bear the burden of pay
ing these extra employes under the cir
cumstances. He did not hesitate on ac
count of the fear of executive disapproval,
for the reason that the governor li..d un
proved the appointment oT these persons
nt the beginning of the session, and had
tiled with him a list of the committers
so designated, but was unccrlala i s to
the result In the legislature. Afterwards
the subject was agnja called to my mind
by several employes, members of :'
house, and others, and it was lie ;.
mous opinion of these persons tlv.t -,;
arrangements should be mad" tu'-i-c.-'i
which the imploycs could seiiee i
vnnces on their salaries. It was i
pesleil that en agreement might I .Hi r
ed Into by wldell the persons sig'ii' Ilie
same should Indemnify tin- state treas
urer for any loss that might oei ur to
him If the legislature failed to make the
necessary appropriation for the extra em
ployes. I note the comment In the public press
about what this willing should be called.
It was, In fact, an agreement In the na
ture of an indemnity to the slate treas
urer, but for the purpose of this case,
I care not whether It Is culled an "In
demnity," "obligation" or "bond." The
purpose was to share the responsibility
of these advances with the state treas
urer, and that was the only purpose. It
was agreed In this obligation that the
state treasurer would be protected to the
amount of Jlti.OCK). This sum was hxed and
agreed upon for the reason that It would
take about JH.OnO to pay the extra em
ployes approved by the governor, nnd It
was suggested that on account of tho
confused condition of things after the
burning down of the old capltol several
additional employes be appointed. The
balance of the $16,(100, after paying the
extras appointed by the governor, could
be used for that purpose. I did not then
know, aed have never since learned, how
many extra employes were on the list
In addition to those approved by the gov
ernor. I only know the fact that It was
represented to me that there were a few
extra watchmen. Janitors and pages! em
ployed when the legislature undertook
to do Its work In several different build
ings In the city of llarrisburg after the
lire.
Under these circumstances I signed tho
obligation. It was not a matter In which
1 had any personal or selllsh interest. I
do not personally know many employes
to whom ndvunccB Were made. I signed
provide additional employes In the ludl-
tary department cf the state govern
ment hy an Item in the general appro
priation bill It seems to me tiiere is much
Krcsi. r force und reason In the position
thut it can provide for the compensation
of extra employes, whose appointments
nre made necessary to transact Its own
business. It will certainly not be con
tend, d that the legislature has greater '
power and control over the employes of
the Judiciary department than It has over
Its own. In statins the rule laid down
In the above case the supreme court says
that in such cases much weight must be
given to the legislative understanding
nnd practice during a long term of years.
In this connection I beg to remind you
that the rule and custom followed in the
appointment of th,e extra employes at the
lust session of the legislature has the
sanction of more than 20 years of leglsla- ,
tlve practice nnd precedent.
Then, again. I recall that under the gen- !
eral appropriation uct of 18115, passed dur
ing the present administration, and ap
proved after painstaking and careful con
sideration by yourself and other memhera
of the cabinet, contains items providing
for the compensation of the extra em- j
pioyes just us tho net of IKI7 did. Tho act
of lsM. although It contained compensa
tion for extru employes, received the ap
proval of the present executive. I do not

same thing In 1V7. I may be at fault, but I WJ

which Is legally right In lMiu.
On this point 1 would do an Injustice to
myself If l failed to remind you that
the general appropriation act of Mi? con-
tains compensation for Vie extra cm-
ploycs, approved at the beginning of the
I session by the governor and members of

governor and yourself have seen no im

number or extra employes. The approval
of tho appropriation for these extra em
ployes Is as constutionallv wromr. if
wrong nt all, as tho approval of any com
pensation for extra services alleged to be
without authority of law. There was no
authority of luw for the extra employes
approved by the governor except the
Items In the general appropriation act
afterwards passed. You will also recall
tho fact thut the general appropriation
uct of 1SH7 contains an Item of more than
H,0 for the compensation of extru em
ployes during the session of 1K&5. This
Item was untentionully overlooked In 1KM5
und the mistake wan corrected in 1S87.
This was money paid without any pre
vious authority of luw.
In view of the authority of the supreme
court above cited, in the light of legisla
tive precedent difrlng a period of more
thun 20 years, with a knowledge of the
fact that the present administration ap
proved items for the compensation of
extru employes In the general upproprlu

the obligation because I felt that these I J, " . ". ,;,, , ,, , i
extra employes had been properly and ,,, 'f', 1 l,,f"rm yourself
regularly selected, with the approval of ' ' m",llc ,"f transaction from
the executive and legislative branches of
the government, ami that It was only fair
that they should lie paid for their ser
vices. To my mind It would have been
cruel and heartless to havn arbitrarily
withheld from them salaries which they
so much needed to support themselves and
families. Advances have always been
made to the members of the legislature
and employes during Hie session. At the
time these advances are made there Is
no authority of law. The authority of
law comes afterward, when the legisla
ture makes an appropriation In the gen
ual appropriation bill, hut it is certainly
slicking In the bark to say that members
and employes are not entitled to receive
advances on their salaries until the gen
eral appropriation bill Is passed. Such a
rule would mean that poor men could not
be members of the legislature. 1 venture
to suggest that there were not live mem
bers of the house or senate or employes
who did not r -Ive advances on their
salaries during the session. 1 know of
no reason why such advances should not
be made.
I am familiar with the constitutional
requirements to which you refer, namely:
"No payment shall be made from the
state treasury or be In any way au
thorized to uny person except to an act
ing olllcer or employe appointed in pur
suance of law."
I respectfully submit, however, that the
extra employes were acting nfllccrs, In
that they were appointed in pursuance
of custom and law and many of them
approved by the governor. In this con
nection I desire Id say that no one. so
far as I have any knowledge, was paid
for services he did not render the state.
If any such practice obtained It was not
with my knowledge, consent or approval.
