POsJOlFICE SCRAP WARNING UP.
Five Candidates StirrIba Around Among
their FfiendS.

The appointment Of a new
postmaster for Durham is sche-
duled to be on hand in May, and
those desiring the appointment
are busy with every favorabIy
thing they have to put forward.
There are five candidates for
position and while all sorts Of ru-
mors are afloat, nothing definite
can be said. because it will not be
known who is to have the job un-
til the appointment is confirmed.
Messrs John 7. Pope and j. X.
Mason are possibly the most ac'
tive candidates 80 far as local
people are concerned and their
friends are more in earnest in
Durham to see them receive con-
sideration.
Reports say that the county or
ganization will be consulted be-
fore the appointment is made.
and another report is to the ef-
feet that the county chairman is
quietly working to get the ap-
pointment for himself. and in
fact the work for the appoint
ment seems to be up to the man
that can get it.
As in all appointments of this
nature. it does not look as rosy
as the fellow that worked in the
campaign thought it would when
he was hollering and making
himself hoarse Tor the G. O. p.
because when something worth
while is going it looks good to
many that did not think about it
before.
The outcome will be watched
with interest and the fight will
become mere interesting as the
appointment approaches.
