An- other offer was made by the master plumbers that the differences be set tied by arbitration. each side to se- lect two arbitrators eachl and the four to select the fifth man. This was re- jected by the journeymen plumbers.

Wisconsin Has Been Prominent.

Wisconsin has occupied in the past
prominent position in the postal
service of the country. Early in the
administration of President Lincoln,
Alexander W. Randall, our great wal
governor, whose term of office had
expired, was appointed first assistant
postmaster general, and later he was
appointed and served as postmaster
general. Former United States
Senator Timothy O. Howe was
appointed postmaster general by
President Arthur. President Cleve-
land recognized the eminent fitness
of a citizen of Madison for the position.
and appointed Col. William f. Villas
as postmaster general. And later,
Hon. Henry G. Payne, having served
a number of years as postmaster at
Milwaukee, was appointed postmaster
general by President Roosevelt. In
addition to these prominent appoint
mentS, Wisconsin has also been repre-
Sented in the department by numerous
citizens of the state, some holding
positions of very responsible
character. Certainly no new state in
Uhe union has received more general
recognition from the department in
official positions, than has Wisconsin,
all of which goes to show how
closely identified Wisconsin has been
with this great service.
l tind from experience that cOndi-
lions have greatly changed in the
conduct and management of post
offices. Now it is absolutely essential
that the postmaster give his personal
attention to even the minuteSt detail
of bis office service, He should be
in close touch with his clerks and
carriers. He should know his men
and feel sure that each employe is
performing his full duty. Strict
discipline should be maintained in the
force, and every member thereof be
made to understand most en-
phatically, that all the patrons of the
office are entitled to receive at his
hand. polite. careful and considerable
attention under all circumstances.
The post Office in town, village and
city is of the greatest Importance to
the people.

ably the one who has the most to do
with yourselves and your offices is the
post office Inspector. From my
earliest service as postmaster. have
always held in high esteem this class

responsible duties they are called up
on TO perform.
Eulosy for Henry Payne.
Since the close of our last annual
convention in Madison in August.
1901. the nation and state, and the
postal service, has sustained d great
loss in the death of Hon. Henry c.
| Payne. Postmaster General.
| Commencing his career as a post
master, at the lowest rung of the
ladder in the service. he finally
reached it's tOpmOSt point, when his
fine ability. large experience and
progressive ways were recognized in
his appointment as postmaster
general. In the successful discharge
OF the duties of that position, during
his incumbency of the office, he re-
fiected great honor upon his state.
| He was ambitious to make his depart
l me t,f n hn h irr1an i,,S nf
| fulneSS to the people, and to that end
he contributed very much.
Mr.. Payne was in hearty sympathy
with the objects of this association.
| He felt that the service derives great
benefit and advantage resulting from
the deliberations of poStmasters in
annual convention. This he had often
expressed to me. He regretted ex-
ceedingly that his official duties
prevented his being present at our
last meeting.
| New P. NJ. Address.
When in line of battle, the front
ranks OF an enemy are thinned, those
in the rear step forward to fill the
| vacant places. So it is in the passing
of those, who, for the time being,
have been In the occupancy of the
highest positions in the land. When
one is removed by death, it is provided
that another shall take his place, and
the wheels of the government roll
forward in successful harmony. The
place once occupied by our fellow
citizen, Henry G. Payne, is now filled
by the Hon. George B. Cortelyou, and
the indications point most unerringly
to the conclusion that the service
loses nothing in the change, that
under his administration the depart
ment will continue to dispense it's
blessings to all the people of our
country, and that the name of the
present postmaster general will rank
high with those of his illustrious
predecessors from Benjamin Franklin
to the present time.
