pointment of Lesner Comes As
Genuine Surprise.

Especial to The Richmond Virginian =,
Norfolk. Va. May estate SEN
ator John A. Lesner has been nomin-
ated by Congressman e K. Holland TO
succeed Major Clinton Wright as post
master OF Norfolk. and will accept,
thus leaving the field open for the
nomination of some other man for the
State Senate for Norfolk city, with the
probability that Mr.. e. c. Mathews,
candidate of the Citizens party, and
running on the dry platform. will
be nominated without serious opposi-
ton.
The appointment OF Senator Lesner
Is. therefore, a victory for the tenn
perance people OF Norfolk. as it is
thought here that the strong temper
ance sentiment of the city convinced
Senator esner of the impossibility of
being reelected, and that thus he was
in a receptive mood for the post
mastership.
Came AS Surprise.
Senator Lesner's appointment, how
ever, is a distinct surprise, as he was
not an avowed candidate: while a hot
fight had been waged between four
other candidates. Major Wright, the
incumbent; Leon Wood, endorsed by
the City Democratic Committee; S. A.
Woodward, supported by the Citizens
Party. and w. T. Anderson. independ-
ent There were also several others
who were ''willin'."
Senator Iesner has been a member
of the Virginia State Senate for eight
years, having been for the last few
years one OF the recognized leaders of
the wet" forces. and having strongly
opposed all temperance legislation
during his term of office, He an
