Will we have new post master?
Who said we wanted one. No one is
discussing such a proposition and no one
is tearing up the earth and ripping his
shirt over the matter. 1t is not likely
that we will have such change, for no
one that we know wants it. They say
that at Oakland there are twenty-five or
more applicants and each one pretty
well heeled and backed up by friends
that will not waver in the fight. Poor
Lewis, the Congressman from this
district, what time he will have to
satisfy twenty-five applicants for one
position. Bloomington Correspondent.
