ment in the South most Is, this same
returning board chief OF the govern

with that wholesale confidence which
has been the invariabls rule of his
predecessors for 80 many years. In

who is also an ex-confederate officer,
to prominent position in his cabinet,

more patronage than any other. Every
carpet.bag postmaster in the South
feels uneasy, feels that this exUaordi-
nary procedure Of the president affects
seriously his prospects for political EN-
