Local Postmaster Soon

Following the republican conven-
ton here Yesterday when men prom
inent in the ranks of the republican
party from all part of the state We're
in Alexandria it is rumored that
State Chairman Joseph l.. Crupper
has about reached a decision on the
appointment Of a postmaster for
Alexandria to succeed Postmaster
Smith, the present democratic incum-
bent.
In fact Mr.. Crupper stated yester-
dav that he expected an appointment
to be made within very short time.
This is taken to mean that Chairman
Crupper. who is the referee in re-
publican affairs since Congressman
Bascomb Slemp has refused the nomi-
nation for another term in congress,
has made up his mind whom he will
appoint and doubtless discussed the
matter with the Postottice Depart
ment before returning to Norfolk.
The three leading candidates in the
race. it is said. are f. Clinton Knight,
u. A. Eggborn and Thomas Bayne.
Unless another ''civn service" eX-
animation is held one of the above
gentlemen, who have already passed
Postmaster General, will be named to
the examination prescribed by the
succeed DR.. Smith it is believed.

BACK TO SCHOOL AND WORK

Holiday seasons are over and many
of AleXandria'S Younger people are
returning to their respective schools
this week to prepare themselves for
another winter of laborious studies
With the coming Of the autumn
season. IL seems almost automatically,
the mind Of the people i'm general is
switched from the SidetraCk of pleas
ure and gayety out 10 the main line
of work and study. This is the case
with the younger ones lust now. Ii
is a bit hard for them 20 leave the
city and their friends after a most
glorious summer season TO be locked
behind the doors Of some Institution,
but once again they are safely at
work they will forget. or, if not that.
they will put aside the thoughts of
pleasure for the more profitable Oc-
cupation of studying.
Socially the old city will miss its
Younger ones in the winter but there
comes one thought that acts as a
healing balm They are gone but
only for a season and will return in
time To make the CITY better and big
ger and happier by their having lived
in IT,
SO here is wishing them, with the
compliments of the Alexandria Ga
zette. a most profitable season at the
institution of their choice.

incumbent. H. Bedinger Bay is a
third candidate.

strongly, in a resolution, the admins
tration of Governor Hardwick. This
is equivalent to an Endorsement Of
Walker.
