NO POSTMASTER
 AT REPUBLICAN

Postmaster o. J. Owen yesterday
 received notice that H. J. Mobbs had
 been removed as postmaster at Re
 publican, a fourth-class office in this
 county, pending the hearing of charges of irregularities in the con-
 duct of the office, which have been pre-
 ferred against him. MT. Mobbs, it is
 stated, is in the peddling business and several weeks ago sent man in his employ out on his regular round, tell ing him to take some change from the store, where the postofiice is located. MT. Mobbs kept his money and the small amount belonging to the post office in the same receptacle, and his man on the day mentioned carried off in a sack all the money on hand. A postoffice inspector happened in to check over the office on that day and found Mr. Mobbs without any money in the office to balance his account with the government On this account he was technically guilty of an offense against the United States laws, and after the inspector reported the mat ter Mr. Mobbs was taken before Com missioner Allen at Little Rock, where he was put under bond to await the action of the grand jury, which con- venes today Everyone acquainted with Mir. Mobbs feels that he has done nothing for which he should be pun ished, and is guilty of nothing more than an innocent violation of the law. The penalty for this offense, however, is very severe, and his friends hope that in this case clemency will be ex- tended him.
 It is more than likely that the post office at Republican as well as that at Guy will be permanently abolished in the near future. The installation of | rural routes in this section has so cut off the patronage of these offices that no one wants to be troubled with all | the red tape connected with them for | the insignificant compensation which | they pay.
