DEMOCRATS TAKE
LONG LOOK AHEAD
AS TO NEW PosTMAsTERs AT sHo-
sHoNE AND oooDiNe-cAsE OF
CHAIRMAN STEVENSON.

1t is a long look ahead to think about
the Democratic postmaster TO be ap-
pointed for Shoshone. for the term OF
the present incumbent. E.H. Miles. does
not expire for two years. The exact
date Will be January 13. 1915. Still
there are avowed candidates in the field.
three OF them to date, VINO are said to
be John A Aeefer. who was the Demo
cratic candidate Tor County Treasurer
Z. L. klinger, who sustained a severe
accident at the railroad roundhouse
iast fall, and w. Henry Winters. 1t is
said that Everett Noble. the defeated
Democratic candldate for state sena-
tor, may also shy his hat into the ring
out as to that Noble himself has
nothing to say.
The official term of Edw. T. Barber
as postmaster at Gooding expires some
time before that OF Miles, but there
are no more aspirants for that office,
so it is said. than in Shoshone for this.
These include Roy Thoma, at present
a clerk in the office for his father;
Edward White, the express man. and
Harry Cannon, the latter, who Is the
treasurer of the Democratic Committee.
not being an active candidate at all
but strongly urged for the office by Roy
Jones' Neither at Shoshone nor at Good
ing is there any thought Of making any
effort whatever to shorten the terms
Of the incumbents.
Roy Jones when recently visiting and
comforting with his sheshone adher-
ents stated that nothing had been
done as yet looking TO the removal Of
Robert H. Stevenson as the Democratic
eeunsg crairman. who declined to re-
sign when requested to do so by other
members OF the Committee. Jones 4.im-
self presented the memorial to stew
enson after securing the signatures OF
mis- associates on the Committee. The
allegation was made that Stevenson had
gone oyer to the enemy. This was de-
MED by the Chairman. who stated TO
friends to whom he appealed that nc
would continue to publish the same kind
of a paper that he had always published
after taking charge Of the Gooding Lead
er.
The action taken to oust Stevenson
developed the fact that ne is a can
didate himself for the Gooding Post
office appointment. He ascribes the
present hostility directed against
his retention Of the ehairmanship to
that fact and not to his own de-
fection from the Democracy to work in
The interest Of one Of the Gooding Re-
publican factions. as has been alleged. E.
K Walsh. Gooding lawyer, states
that Stevenson has everything creased
to Slide into the berth as postmaster as
soon as the term Of the present ineum-
beiit expires
