JACKSON WILL
HOLD POSTOFFICE
PRESIDENT WILL RETURN HIS
NOMINATION TO THE
SENATE.
AND IT WILL BE CONFIRMED
Early Action Looked For In Co
lumbia Post Office En-
tanglement.

That the nomination Of Postmaster
John W. Jackson will Immediately be
returned to the Senate by President
Roosevelt and that the Senate will
confirm the nomination at an early
date is the present outlook.
Postmaster Jackson received a pri-
yate communication to this effect
Wednesday and this private message
is confirmed by the following Wash
ington press dispatch this morning:
WASHINGTON, April 15.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt will again nominate
John W Jackson to be postmaster at
Columbia, Tenn, the Postmaster Gen
eral having recommended that the
nomination, which was withdrawn
from the Senate Oh March go be again
sent to that body
"Jackson's nomination was with
drawn By the President following an
investigation by the Civil Service
Commission in March, resulting from
charges that Jackson was influencing
politically his subordinates in the post
Office.
When Postmaster Hughes Of Co
lumbia, was dismissed last year Jack
son, who was the assistant postmas-
ter, received the recess appointment.
The records of the Postoff1ce Depart
ment show that his services have
been satisfactory.
Following the withdrawal of the
appointment from the Senate, mass
meeting was held in Columbia on
April 1, at which resolutions were
passed and petition signed asking
that Jackson be reappointed. Senator
Taylor and Representative Padgett
also used their influence TO have the |
President again nominate Jackson
Postmaster Jackson has stated all !
along to his friends that he was not |
uneasy, and it looks as if his confidence
was well-placed. Mr.. Jackson. how
ever, had private information that he
was not at liberty to give out, and his
friends, not being in possession of this
information, could not help but feel
Uneasy. AS result of this feeling
he mass meeting at the court house
vas held, and from the above dispatch
hat, meeting had a great deal of
weight with the President in the early
eturn of the nomination. The Presi-
lent evidently decided that the
harges against Mr.. Jackson were
urely of political nature and that
he people of Columbia, who pay the ,
Expense of the Office, have some right
S to the character of the service they
hall receive and as to the man who
hall serve them.
Further private advices go to show
nat arrangements have been made in {
ne Senate for early action on this
and it goes without say
lg that favorable action will be high Q
: gratifying to the great majority
{ the patrons of the Columbia office. I
