AN East Orange Postmistress Holds tn
Fort Against Them---Items of In
terest from other Parts of the State
A real pretty fight is in progress al
East Orange, among a few hungry
office seeking Republicans and one
lonely Democratic girl. She is MARY
E. Simonson. The girl, poor thing
is the Postmistress, and a capable one,
She was appointed by president
Cleveland and the selection was a Ju'
dici0us one.
When She assumed control the Office
was of third class and paid a salary OF
only 81, 900, a considerable portion OF
which was consumed by rent and
clerk hire. By strict attention to
duty, and fortunate combinations OF
circumstances, she increased the vol
ulne of business transacted, until IN
July, 1887, free delivery was instituted
in East Orange and the three offices OF
the town combined into one under her
direction. Since then she has so I'M
proved the showing of her office that
the salary has grown from So, 100 TO
So, 800. She has expended a large
amount from her personal income to
maket the place more convenient and
attractive and has placed the affairs
of the Office in an unusually systemat-
ic condition. Her friends claim chat,
in consideration of her extraordinary
efforts, she should be allowed to re-
