He Declines To Be Silent

Painesville, Minn., Oct. 33. - J. Adam Bode addressed a meeting here, ant at the close he gave the Associated Press copy of his letter tendering his resignatio of the marshalship, which says in part "Having just learned through the pres dispatches that the president has asko the heads of departments to enforce hi or ter of ism, which forbids federal ap pointcos doing campaign work, and as ', oannot in the present crisis consistently oor conscientioualy obey such orders,' hereby tender my resignación of tho niarshalship of Minnesota." He says he does this because the Dismocrats are brinu maligned, but principally beeause he believus that his old friend, Major Baldwin, should be returned to oongress and tli.it all the major's friends should help him. Six months ago, Beda says, he recelved his office at Major Bald win'.s hands. He continuos: "I now more gladly lay itdown, fop inaction would be ingratitude. When I must choose between public office and my friends I shall take my friends, and nothlng shall stand between my best efforts and their best interests. Wlth returning prosperity under the Wilsou bill I am sure of a livolihood, and as the strikes are over almost anybody can run the marshal's office."
