ARE CHARGES
Are Those Used by the Admin.
lstration to Depose a
Postmaster.
fCharles Broolxs Smiths

WASHINGTON, Aug. l5.-N. j
keadle Is no longer postmaster al
Williamson, w. Va. He was re-
moved on July 81, but his success
sor has not yet been appointed. Mr..
Keadle's resignation was requested
that action being based on six speci-
fic charges preferred by Guy. e. New
Ion, a postofiice inspector who,
Keadle's friends say and the Repub-
ican members Of the states congress
sional delegation affirm, was de-
spatched to Williamson especially for
the purpose Of trumping up charges.
Keadle was given the privileges Of
resigning or letting the records
show that he was removed from the
service. He declined to resign, de-
claring in his brief that to do soswas
to admit the truth of the charges
against him which he denied .indi-
vidually and collectively. He fur
nished the department with much
proof Of decidedly strong cfiarac-
ter to show his innocence, but 1t was
of no avail. In fact, while many
postmasters Of Republican or. Pro
gressive hue have been ousted from
the service before the expiration Of
their commissions to make place for
faithful adherents of the party in
power under identical similar circum-
stances. the defense Of none Of them
was as strong and conclusive as that
offered by Keadle.
The deposed postmaster's case has
been hadled here by Senator Con and
Congressman-at-large Sutherland.
They have worked hard on the case,
as It appealed to them as partict.
1arly meritorious one. In retaliation,
Senator Cor threatens to hold up the
appointment Of Keadle's successor
indefinitely.
Mr.. Keadle Is well known throug h-
out West Virginia. For many years
he was a field deputy in the internal
revenue service. being appointed to
that service by "A. B. White. When
Mingo county was created he was the
first sheriff. He has been a familiar
and popular figure at all Republican
conventions in many years.
