MANAGER OF POSTAL TELE-
GRAPH co. WILL GO WITH
GOULD SYSTEM.
Will Be Employed In the Industrial De.
partment-C. E. Knight, of Iowa
City, Formerly of ottumwa, is Sue
cessor to MIR. Finch.

After successfully managing the
Postal Telegraph companys Office in
this city since January 10, 1903 and
bringing that company's business up
to its present high standing, L.G. Finch
retired as manager this morning in
favor of Charles Il. Knight of Iowa
City Mr.. Finch rendered his resigna-
ton one month ago and this morning
was relieved of his duties by the new
manager Mr.. Finch resigned to ac-
cept position in the industrial de-
partment of the Gould system of rail-
roads and will have his headquarters
in the south
During his association with the Pos
tai Telegraph Co., in this city, Mr..
Finch has given excellent satisfaction.
BY his genial and accommodating
ways, he has multiplied the business
of the local Office. He goes from this
city into his new field of work with
the best wishes of his many friends
for abundant success
The New Manager,
Charles e. Knight who has been ap,
resided in this city and is we'll known
here. Prior to taking the Postal Of
flee in Iowa City, Mr.. knight was a
Western Union operator in the offices
of John Morrell & Co. He comes to
this city thoroughly equipped to take
charge of the business here. In speak
ing of the change, the Iowa City Re
publican said:
Charles e. knight, who for tn,
past year has had charge of the lowe
City office of the Postal Telegraph
company. leaves this evening for OF
tumwa, to assume the position OF
manager of the Office there. The
change is a very decided promotion
as Ottumwa is much larger than Iowa
City. and the company naturally has
larger business. Mr.. knight will
have two operators under him. During
his stay in Iowa City he has given uni
form satisfaction. and moreover, he
does what is not true of most oper
ators, pushes the business of the com
pany for all it is worth. 1t would seem
that he is in line for still higher hon
ors'
Work Will Be Different.
| The work of Mr. Finch in his new
position will be entirely different from
that OF the Postal company, except thai
/ he will have to deal with individuals
Mr.. Finch's work will consist of pro
noting immigration, locating indus
tries and similar duties which directly
] interest the Gould system of railroads
His long experience with the Burling
ton in this city has enabled him tc
study the railroad business thoroughly
and he is eXcellently euuipped for his
new position. Mr.. Finch will make
his home in the south, the exact place
however has not yet been decided.

I'VE are told that the democrats Of
the east have picked out two districts
in Iowa where they are going to re-
turn democratic congressman. This is
one of them. tell you this simply to

truth is that Major Lacey has become
SO useful in the national house that he
is simply indispensable there. Don't
