elected senator, Flower will soon be
nominated for governor, and it will
only remain for the contract to be

THE PROBABLE POSTMASTER.
Mr.. Griffith Davies Likely to Receive
the Honor.

the Honor.
1t is more than probable that Mr.. Griffith
Davies will be appointed by President Harrison
to succeed Mr. A. NJ Brookes as postmaster of
Seattle. 1t is customary for the president to ac-
cept the recommendation of senators from the
state where such vacancy occurs unless some
serious objection is made. 1t is understood
that both Senator Squire and Senator Allen are
agreed that Mr.. Davies is eminently qualified to
fill the important position, and will, If they
have not yet, unite in submitting his name to
the president
81 am a candidate for the position" said Mr..
Davies yesterday in reply to the question of
Observation-Disclosures reporter 81 do not seek
the Office, but am fully sensible of the compli-
ment paid me by the offer of my friends to place
my name before the president. The duties of
the Office are of very responsible character and
if am appointed shall do my best to insure
Seattle such postal service as her growing
needs demand.
sI feel convinced that the office is now IN ex-
cellent condition, but the work well begun by
Mr.. Brookes needs constant attention. More
than this | would not like to say
Mr.. Griffith Davies is one of the best known
citizens of Seattle. and although he has always
been active in Republican politics, as he has
been in every movement toward the advance
ment of the city's interests, he has not before
held political Office. His reputation as a man
OF integrity and high moral principle is not sur
passed by that of any. man III the state, and
should he be appointed his exceptional fitness
will be generally recognized.
Major Rinehart was asked what foundation
there was for the rumor that he would be can
ddate for the Office
~ may truthfully say, none," he replied; 'I
have never sought, nor has anybody asked me If
i would accept, the office-at least nobody who
would be regarded as authorized to make the
suggestion. | suppose the fact that am an old
time postmaster gave rise 10 the report but there
is nothing in it, and If any effort OF mine could
aid in securing the appointment for Mr.. Griffith
Davies, would most certainly make it. l
derstand, however, that the sentiment in the
party is one of general accord with the PROPOSE
ton to recommend Mr.. Davies and have no
doubt hewill be appointed"
