SAYS HE CANNOT GUST
REPUB. POSTMASTER

Waycross, Ca, Oct. 22.-(Special.) y.
According to advices from Washington
regarding the postmastership at Way-
cross the mere fact that the incum-
bent, G. E. Murphy, was placed in of
fee by republican administration IL
not sufficient to cause his removal
This information was received by See-
retary Harry M. Wilson, of the city
executive committee, and came as a
result of resolutions adopted at d
mass meeting of citizens last Tuesday
night, asking that a democrat be
appointed postmaster at Waycross as
soon as possible
Congressman Walker, in his letter
on the subject, says that it is not a
part of his public duty to remove
postmasters. "The removal of a post
master Is a part of the duties of the
executive branch of the government"
he says Il have at all times earnestly
ADVOCATED the removal of republicans,
and have insisted to both the president
of the United States and the postmaster
general that it is important to the
administration, and to the future OF
democracy, to adopt this policy. They
have not, however, seen fit to do So
