 The people here and hereabouts are gradually becoming more interested in the poetmasferShip and the hope pre- Vaiis that Congressman Peter Goelet Gerry win determine during the pres rcnG session Of congress whether Post master Charles J. Butler, republican, is to be retained as postpaster at re- publican Westerly, or whether he is to be succeeded by d democrat, and there are just a few of them m the town who have always remained true to the party and with no hope of success. With politics removed, the people would be satisfied to have the present incumbent but as it is a. political of flee 1t is but fair to presume that the democratic administration will put a democrat on guard, as that is an i'm portant factor in politics. Andrew Farrell is the recognized leader of the democracy in Westerly, and he is 8 candidate for the office. He had a petitio1 in circulation for the appoint lnent within twenty-Iour hours after l: was positively learned that Woodrow Wilson was elected president Of the United States, and he has been g worker for the appointment ever since and ought to be sang uine of success Another candidate for postmaster, il there is to be change, is John Allen the letter carrier, who lays claim tc the office by reason of his thorougt democracy and long service in the post office department. Other democrats tried and true, who are receptive can- didates for the office are George Bray Michael J. Burke, Horace Swan anC perhaps just a few others who reside within the town limits of Westerly.
 PaWcatuck, just over the line in the state of Connecticut. is within the ju. risdiction of the Westerly post offics and may be given consideration 1T connection with the postrnastership which would carry with it an increase in the number of candidates. whicl would include Ex-Representative Jo $eph Chesebro and other democrats O equal prominence and ability.
