With the approval of the U Senate
of the appointment OF VIM FL Clarke of
Milton as postmaster, is closed one of the
hold-up acts of the last state campaign.
Clarke was known to be stalwart and
despite the fact that he had the sigma
ture of nearly every voter in Milton for
his reappointment, Congressman Cooper
held up his appointment from last year
in February until the present time.
Clarke was given recess appointment
just after the spring campaign began,
and the nature of the gift kept him from
doing active work against the governor.
It is said Congressman Cooper tried in
vain to secure some LaFollette man to
accept the appointment.
