New Baltimore Postmaster.

Mr.. W. w. johnson, President Ct
the Young Mems Republican Club.
Baltimore, has been selected for post
master of Baltimore city. For several
weeks past delegation after delegation
has been waiting upon Postmaster Gen.
eral Wanamaker aud pressing the claims
Of the several candidates for the respon-
sible position. and the suspense of the
different aspirants has been intense -
The contest has BEEN, as we believe,
wisely settled by the selection of Mr..
johnson. All things considered, it
was the best possible appointment which
could have been made. The people
throughout the State. as well as in tue
city, will be gratifed that young and
energetic business man, equal in capaci-
ty and fitness to the present incumbent,
has been selected. We congratulate
the President on the happy termination
of the three-cornered fight, feeling salts
fed that no better appointment could
possibly have been made.

out there they nominate a man for tn
highest position in their gift, who has
lived. according TO his sworn statement
when he signed the aquaduct bonds. in
New York city for many years past.
where he engaged in pulling and bear
