Or Was the American Book Company

Special to The Daily Leader.
Norman, Jan 20-Strange things
happen politically these days. The
re-appointment of J. j. Burke as post
master at Norman lends lively incl
dent to the political arena, and there
may be some lively compliments ex-
changed before another appointment
is made at this town.
1t appears that c. c. Williams had
the endorsement of the entire organ
lied machinery. He had the entire
county organization with him. and
there seemed no obstacle in the way
of his appointment. II Is rumored that
he had the endorsement of the newly
appointed governor But with all this,
there was one endorsement he had
not This was the endorsement Of a
man who has spent much of his time
in Washington this fall and winter
advising Teddy and David
Ross Boyd of the university David
Ross lent his influence to Mr.. Burke.
They worked at what they considered
the proper source. They filed their
plea and petition with Cortelyou, and
worked with him direct. There seems
to be no doubt that the influence of
David Ross with the good postmaster
general is the force that shook the
plum that fell into Burke's mouth.
