Bouquets from the Newspaper Boys.

The appointment of Dana Mead to be
postmaster at Cresco has gone to the
Senate for confirmation.
Dana deserves the place. He is one
of the most valuable Democrats in the
fourth congressional district. He has
been successful county chairman and
= member of the congressional com
mittee. AS editor of the Plain3 Dealer,
he has been newer of wood and q
drawer of water for the Democracy 1854
and sometimes 1865 days per annum.
We guess his paper has the biggest
circulation of fourth district weeklies
and 80 is big party asset.
He will make Cresco an excellent
postmaster. He's clean headed and
capable of running Uncle Sans stamp
distributing agency as it should be run.
