DOOM TURNED DOWN.
Postmaster General Tells Pritchard BE Must
Get Better Man

The news comes pretty straight that
the Post master General has told Sena-
tor Pritchard that he will appoint neither
w. f. Odom nor his wife as postmaster
at Wadesboro, and has requested Prlt-
chard to name another person for the
office. Pritchard got Odom's vote for
Senator in 1897. At that time it was
charged that he promised to give Odom
Federal office. He got him a job as
timber inspector out West; then got
him place in the internal revenue ser
vice. He was indicted and tried in the
Federal court, but Senator Pritchard APP
peared for him and got him off. Now
Pritchard wants to foist SO unworthy q
man upon the good people Of Wadesboro
as postmaster. 1t is a shameful sort
of appointment and the Postmaster Gen
eral does well to turn it down.
