Later they discov-

new Postmaster. Later they discov-
cred their mistake.
While laboring under the delusion
that the public had the right to select
the Postmaster for a town, the people
of Jamison City induced Mr.. Harry
Miller to enter the field as a candi-
date. In obedience to their request
he got out a petition which was sign
ed by three-fourths of the patrons of
The office 1t looked like an easy
thing Mr. Miller's friends began to
congratulate him on his victory. He
had lived in the town longer than
anybody else, they reasoned, and was
he only Republican aspirant. It is
a cinch they said. But they counted
without their host
The purchaser Of the store hadn't
been a Republican or an active man
In politics but he had bought some
thing and the PostofTict was among
the chattles. He didn't take the
trouble to ask for signers to petit
ton, because he was a friend Of the
Republican boss and that was enough.
Meantime Mr.. Miller forwarded his
application and petition to the Post
Office Department and advised Con-
gressman Samuel of the fact. In the
same mail Mr.. Morgan Gavitt, Re-
publican and prominent citizen of the
town dispatched a letter to the Con-
gressman in the interest of Mr. Mar
tin. To both of these letters he re-
piled on the same day, apparently
about the same time, for they arrived
in the same mail, but they were of
diametrically opposite import, That
is to say the letter to Mr.. Miller as
sured him that when the matter is
referred to me (the Congressman
by the Postofice Department for rec
ommendation on the matter, your ap-
pllcation will receive careful consid-
Grafton" That to Mr.. Gavitt was
more candid. 81 have already for
warded to the Postmaster General"
he writes, my recommendation for
the appointment of Mr.. NJ H. Smith
gall. Didn't know that there was
any other candidate for the appoint
ment." Both letters were dated Sep
tember 26th
DR.. Smithgall was the purchaser OF
the store and incidentally owner Of
the Postoffice, but the people were
not satisfied. Up in that mountain
region men are of a sturdy type who
cherish their rights and insist on ex-
ercising them. They began to
kick" figuratively speaking, and the
echo of their discomfort went down
through the serpentine Fishing Creek
Valley to Bloomsbury where it dis
turbed the serenity of the bosses locat-
ed there. Mr.. Martin was sent for
and implored to be kept still. He
was not inclined to yield at first anS
the opportunities grew warmer un-
til finally he was offered $25 in cash,
the money to be paid in hand or
through the medium Of the local
boss at Central If he would keep
quiet
A few days ago Mr. Miller wrote TO
the main guy" at bloomsbury, de
clining his muniicent offer.

George Smith, husband of Mrs. Mat

the Liberty neighborhood and was laid
to rest on the 23rd. Mr.. Smith was
member of the Woodmen of the World.
He leaves a wife and four children to
mourn his death. Casting his lot with
the people of God, he lived christian

Mr.. Smith W; s liked by all who knew
him. He was great sufferer formonths
previous to his demise but bore his af-

ly opened the door to permit him to
pass from life of affections to one of
happiness. To the bereaved family

him.
Friends may think the wound will
