Mr.. Lamb Turning Everybody Out.

Washington Special.
Elk Con ere ssnan Lamb, of Indiana, VINO was
appointed United States district attorney last
Saturday, left for Indianapolis this afternoon
Before leaving AIR. Lamb called at the Postofice
Department and preferred charges against about
thirty of the fourth class postmasters in the
Terre Haute district. the grounds of offensive
partisanship," and received assurances that they
would all be replaced by Democrats within the
next thirty days. Mr. LAMB says that he is of
the opinion that the new First Assistant Post
master general, Mr. Stevenson, proposes to get
rid of the present Republican ipcurnbents Just as
rapidly as possible, at least he talks that way,
and appears to be very anxious to have the plat
ter swept clean. He says that where it is prac-
ticable to make charges against the incumbents
he would prefer it, as this course will materially
aid him in getting rid of them and expedite
early removals. 1t is understood that the new
postmaster at Terre Haute will make clean
sweep by the removal of all his Republican sub
ordinates and replace them with Democrats.
There are about dozen letter carriers and as
many clerks employed in the Terre Haute office.
AS the clvil-servce law does not apply to any
office where there are less than fifty employees,
there ought not to be any difficulty in giving the
places to Democrats at once.

They 90 not keep up with improvements
They don't know the best is the cheapest
They do not read the best books and news

They think the buyer of a successful neigh

They sell hay, grain and straw off the farm
