mated by the friends OF Speaker Champ Clark. Appli-
cation OF the unit rule to the Delaware delegation pre-
vented that fact being made manifest in the Balti
convention in 1872 but the fact remains that it

~ Years Pead Of the Money
Order Division.

w. N. Collins, head Of the money
order division In the Kansas City post
office, is to be the successor Of Post
master Harris. This announcement
was made at the office Of Postmaster
General Burleson following confer
ences OF two days on the Kansas City
postmastership.
Mr.. Burleson's recommendation OF
Mr.. Collins will go to the White House
at once and the President will send

Mr.. Collins appointment dates from
'he day he was named, 1t is a recess

soon as his commission is sent him.
The Senate will confirm later. Col
Inns, in his present position at the
postoffice gets $4,000 a year. The
postmastership pays $4,000 year.
The selection Of Mr.. Collins ends q
long wrangle for the position, which
Senator Reed has insisted all along
should go to Emmett o'Malley, Reed
lieutenant. It became evident some
time ago that Senator Reed could not
name the new postmaster and the de-
partment began to cast around for q
suitable man. First one Democrat
then another was suggested. until Mr..
Collins name was presented for con-
sideratipn by mutual friends.
II was made plain at the Postoffice
Department that neither Senator Reed
nor Senator Stone was responsible for
the Collins appointment. but that he
was chosen because OF his fine record
of twenty.seven years in the Kansas
City postoffce and because Mr., Burle'
son and the President believed that
men in the service who have been
faithful to their trust should be re-
warded

The Hutchins-Poe dog case
first started at Missouri City, on
the Missouri river. From there il
came up Fishing river to Excel
sior Springs, where it was twice
tried, but with the exception ol
accumulated cost, neither party
gained a point. From Excelsior
Springs the case followed Fish
ing river to Tryst Falls, in Wash.
ington township, and landed in
Justice Shouse's court, where
it was again "fought over" the
plaintiff, Poe, whose dog was kill
ed by Hutchins, being given q
verdict of $40 damages for the
loss of his dog. This, of course
made Hutchins for the costs
which has scared above the St0C
mark. From Justice Shouse't
court in Washington township,
Hutchins has appealed to the
circuit court and it will come tC
the surface again at the March
term. Judging from the amount
of "ginger" that has already
been put into the case, it matters
little what the verdict may be,
the dogs case will find itself in
the supreme court OF the state.
