REVOLVING DOOR

Failure.

The revolving door at the entrance

AS the COURIER SEES IT.

Former CONGRESSMAN Watson is not
TO occupy the position of dictator to
the new congressman from the Sixth,
district. Judge William O. Barnard, Of
New Castle, according to one Of the
near friends of both gentlemen. w. Fl.
Elliott, editor of the New Castle Cour
Ter. Editor Elliott believes Watson
knows better than to mcddle and Bar
nard knows enough to recognize his
own rights.
The Courier speaks of the case as
follows: 49,
In paragraph under the head Cos
sip of Politics and Politicians" in the
Indianapolis Sunday Star, there ap-
peared the following: THE indications
nre that there will be some lively do
ings throughout the Sixth District
when 1t comes to naming postmasters.
The story goes that former Congress
man Watson, at a recent conference
with Congressman Barnard. agreed up
on some Of the men to be recommended
for county seat postmasters.
II an agreement has been reached be-
tween Barnard and Watson as to soEle
OF the appointments, the fight is ex-
pected to have a strong bearing in the
next congressional race in the Sixth
District The item then goes on to
enumerate possible candidates for con-
gross and lays stress on the probabili.
ty ola bitter struggle for the postmas-
tership at Greenfield.
Somebody. for some purpose, Is
working hard at the proposition that
Mr.. Watson. although no longer repre-
senting this district in congress. yet
continues to dictate the political pat
ronage therein, and that Mr.. Barnard
meekly submits.
Whether the purpose is to bring Mr.
Watson into contempt by showing him
up as meddler in things that should
no longer concern him, or to make Nj
Barnard appear as lacking in apprecta
ton of the dignity and duties Of his pc
sition. is not as yet clearly discernible
but in either event 1t is unwarrantce
and reprehensible
Mr.. Watson fully understands thai
he has no authority or responsibility
concerning the federal patronage o
this district. and to presume that n
would seek to assume either is to &C
cuso him of lack Of sclf-respect an,
decent regard for the dignity of the pc
sition recently vacated.
On the other hand, Mr.. Barnard ha

otherwise is cowardly and despicable

Items Gathered in
From Far and Near

From the Providence Journal.-The
south pole prize is still waiting to be
captured, and the race is again free
for-au.
From the Charleston News and
Courier-The Shackleton expedition
went close to the pole. but was not
warm in the search for it.
From the Reward Evening News
1t was a mighty close call for the
south pole, anyway.
From the Kansas City Times
Lieut.. Shackleton, an English explor-
er, succeeded in getting within 100
miles of the south pole, but had to
turn back. After coming that close
the lieutenant should have been able
to skate the rest of the way.
From the Chicago News.-On Brit
aims possessions the sun never sets,
but on the spote where Lieut.. Shack
Teton has planted the flag it rises only
about once a year.
From the Harrisburg Telegraph
Lieut. Shackleton has approached
within 81 miles of the south pole
That's doubtless near enough for all
practical purposes. But these pole
hunters are not practical. If they
were they'd stay at home running a
store or working for wages. There
fore, they will continue to strive FOL
their prize until they get it. and then
long for other poles to conquer.
From the Chicago Evening Post
We can never believe that Lieut.
Shackleton found it very cold, because
we are all instinctively certain thai
the farther south one gets the warm
/ er 1t is.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch
Lieut.. Shackleton's "farthest south" i.
