JUDGE T0URGEE HAS SOMETHING TO SAY IN TIE
MATTER.
The nomination OF eX- Gov. Holden, OF North
CaroliEa, for postmaster at Raleigh, which was
sent to the Senate some days ago, was yester-
day withdrawn, and the name OF John Nlcol
has been substituted for the postmastershio
This change was accomplished mainly by Judge
T0urgee, author OF A Fools Errand," who
formerly resided in North Carolina and he Ia
familiar with the character of the federal Of
tcials there. GOV. Holden was impeached by
the democrats, and has held the post Office
Tor some years. Harris. cOlored mau,
began recently to work for the place, and
Quarrel, which led to split among the repuD.
icanS OF that state, resulted. 1t Is said that
Judge Tourgee advised the President to recall
Holden's nomination and appoint Nicoll on the
ground that the latter Is an excellent man, a
popular citizen, and that no objection could
be urged to him. Nicoll has been deputy
collector OF revenue at Raleigh, is master OF
the Masonic lodge there, and was a cOnted-
crate soldier. Harris, as soon as he learned
that he could not get the post Office,
made application for the deputy collectorshtp
to be vacated by Nicoll when he takes the post
Office. It Is also sald on the authority of North
Carolinians, that Judge Tourgee advised the
President to sweep out all the cold Grant
gang OF federal officers In North Carolina who
have been in Office for years and appoint in
their places the most respectable and popular
republicans in the state
