The only Cabinet officer accredited to New
York is George B. Cortelyou. His appointment as
Postmaster General did not cause any comment
among the local politicians. it we'll known
that he would be named for this place. While Mr.
Cortelyou is a New-York man. he has been for so
many years connected with the national admins
tration in Washington that he is hardly regarded
organization Republican in this State. When
the question of making him chairman of the Ma
tionaI Committee first broached some of the
leaders here resented the idea they thought
this would make it necessary to choose him as
the member of the National Committee from New
York. This was Obviated, however, by making him
an added member, and William l.. Ward
elected member from this State. The organization
Republicans here however, have been sincerely
thankful that Mr.. CortelyOu was made a member
and chairman of the National Committee, and
while he has not gone up through the organiza-
tlon route the Republicans here are proud OF him.
