SEN. JoHNSoN'S ADVICE.
Stop SquabbIing Over Juicy Plums,
Says the Senator to Democrats.

Wateryille, Me, May 1S.-"You must
get together among yourselves and
settle the contest for postonices and
other positions is the substance of q
letter which United States Senator
Charles Il. johnson has sent to u
prominent Democrat living, in the
eastern section of the State.
Some of the leading Democrats fear
that there will be whole lot of
trouble over the distribution of the
postoffice plums. and an effort is be
ing made to have the party unite on
some one for the positions, but those
who know anything about politics un-
derstand that this act is better said
than done. Some of the older Demo-
Gratis remember what u tempest was
raised over the distribution of the
leaves and fishes in the days of the
famous plum trust during the last
administration of Grover Cleveland.

me that the local Democrats, instead
