BROKE A LEG.

Little Howard, the youngest
son of J. E. Herrick, had the
misfortune to break his leg, a
little above the ankle, Wednes
day forenoon. It appears that
the little fellow left the house
and went out on the field where
an older brother was blowing
with a gang plow, and in some
manner got his leg caught in
one of the wheels. The unfort-
unate little fellow was brot to
town at once, where DR.. Bean
reduced the fracture, and at
the present time is resting
easily.-Walcott Reporter.

of constr ucting the canal, and has had the
idea in mind of appointing him commits
sioner to investigate trade and freight con-
ditions ever since he returned from the
Isthmus of Panama. The President readily
acceded to Secretary Taft's suggestion, and,
as the work will be entirely congenial, Mr.
Bristow has accepted the new position"
Mr.. Bristows ambition to succeed Senator
Burton Is well known, and 1t Is this that
will probably eventually take him back to
Kansas to carry out the program OF that
work.
Subject to Severe Criticism
Mr. Bristow has been the target of severe
criticism ever since his assumption OF the
task of unraveling the postal frauds and
has smarted under the invectives thai have
come his way Later when the House post
office committee made public list of rep
resentatives who had received favors re-
garded as outside the allowances of law.
Mr. Bristow was charged with furnishing
the names. and his callers from the House
of Representatives were both numerous and
angry For several days there was rush
for the Post Office Department from the
south side of the Capitol, and all the frantic
callers FASTENED to the Office of the fourth
assistant He stood all this with what for
titude he could, and told them that he was
not responsible for the publicity given the
matter. Nevertheless, the representatives

among the members as there was before the
expose
Ever since his acceptance Of the office OF
fourth assistant he has held the re1ns or
more power than any of his colleagues or
the department not excepting the POST
master General, and it is this that finally
determined Mr.. Wynne upon the course
which has resulted in his resignation. His
successor will not be appointed until the
beginning of tire new administration, both
the first assistant, now administered by
John J. Howley, as acting, and the fourth
assistant. which will probably be placed in
the temporary charge of Charles A. Con-

NEW POSITION FOUND
SPECIAL COMMISSIONER UNDER
PANAMA CANAL ACT.
He Protested Against Transfer of In
spectors, but the President Sus-
tanned Mr.. Wynne.

A curtailment of the power of Joseph l..
Bristow, fourth assistant postmaster gen.
eral since March -. 1897. through the trans
fer of the division of post office inspectors
from his jurisdiction to that of the POST
master General has resulted in the resigna-

the President to be special commissioner
under the Panama canal act. His separa-
ton from the Post Office Department and
the beginning of his new duties will take
effect January 20.

business with this Office who have said that
Notwithstanding their opposing opinions In
some OF the actions 1 have taken, I have
tried to do my duty and have acted as
thought was for the best interests of the
entire service and according to what T fa,t
to be the right thing
1t has been, In many respects. a hard
ONCE to I'LL. and in many others a pleasant
one. In public office one is bound to meet
with opposition to his acts, and it is to be
expected Seldom do all men agree In their
opinions, and it should be the duty of the
man holding an office to do the best he can
under all circumstances and let his acts
speak for themselves. That is what have
tried to do. and by doing 1t 1 have made
both friends and enemies. / hope there are
more of the former than of the latter I
leave the office with regret, but at the same
time feel that the appointment which the
President has made will be a pleasant one
to fill. l am going to try my best to meet
his expectations, as well as of the Secretary
of War"
