Milwaukee Telegraph: Congressman
Minor has named w. H. Cochran for
postmaster at Centralia. Mr.. Cochran
is popular in the community and is we'll
qualified. He is one of the lads who
used to cry when the first regiments
went to the war because they could not
be taken as soldiers. The moment he
became large enough he enlisted and
went to the war, making good record.
This fact was not against Mr.. Cochran
in the estimation Of Congressman Minor;
indeed, quite the contrary; notwith-
standing the fact that there has grown
up in the country a considerable class
of snippy young politicians who froth
at the mouth whenever it is suggested
that an ex-soldier should be remem-
bered by his party.
II. D. Single, dentist, of Wausau, has
