another peasant for the non-fulfill-
mcnt of a contract for the sale of

dress.

H. L. Ram.

Congressman BirdsaH has inform.
ed Mr.. Fl. L. Ram. that on the 10th
inst, he forwarded to the post office
department his recommendation for
the formers appointment as post
master in this city, to succeed the
present incumbent, Capt. 7. W.
Summersides. The appointment has
not vet been made by President
Roosevelt, but probably will be
very soon. 1t is reported that a
protest against the appointment has
been forwarded to Washington, but
as we understand the practice in
such cases, if the appointment is
made when congress is not in ses-
sion, it does not prevent the ap-
pointee from taking possession of
the office, and holding it as such ap-
pointee until the next meeting of
congress, when the President will
lre-appoint him and the Senate will
then either confirm or reject it.
In Mr.. RAMS case, there is no
question but President Roosevelt
will appoint him. on the recon-
mendation of Congressman Birdsall,
supported as it undoubtedly is by
Senator Allison, as no showing can
truthfully be made against the
reputation of Mr.. Ram or his
liability to conduct the business Of
the office to the satisfaction Of all
concerned.
Mr.. Summersides has held the
office for about ten years, and his
record at Washington is the equal
in point of merit, of any of his pre-
decessors. He has during his en-
tire term of service, given the office
his undivided personal attention, and
we believe its patrons have never
!, been better or, more satisfactorily
!, served than during his administra-
, ton Of it. His failure to receive the
, appointment for another year is due,
we presume, to the belief on the
part of Congressman Birdsall, that
his own political aspirations will be
enhanced by the course he has taken.
His long delay in making the ap-
J pointment, indicates that he was
: undecided as to which appointee
would bring him the most strength

) about equally divided, Mr.. Ram

est by all odds yet encountered IN

purchased BY men who have made
their millions out of Indian Ter
ritory oil during the past two
years, and with the Monon show
ing up rich on the north and the
Copp property making a rich
strike on the west and all the

about 500 feet west of the Irish
