JUsT sIMPLE RECIPRoCTTY


The republican organization candf-
date for governor will be Mayor Nc
Carthys candidate. Mayor McCarthy's
candidate for attorney general rs the
republican organization candidate for
attorney general. 1t is just a simple
matter of that reciprocity which the
mayor does not view with alarm when
1t relates TO practical politics, but
which as governmental policy may be
considered wholly antagonistic to his
devotion to the high protective tariff
idea.
While the general public is interested
primarily in the gubernatOrial situation
the politicians are by no means oer-
looking the other places on the ticket.
The nomination for secretary of state
appears to be the prize most sought by
the patriotic citizens willing to sacri-
fee their talents and time TO the serv-
ice Of the state for the honor of the
job and the salary of $4,000 a year

is to extend the service as rapidly as
warranted by increasing population,
and to accomplish its savings. not by
the curtailment of postal facilities.
but by handling in more systematic
manner the constantly expanding
volume of mail"
More than $500 new postoffices
