shield the latter from his mistake Both of them appealed to the which took them in for partial denial and partial but at first refused us a hearing in therefore the following appeared in the Age Tuesday morning EDITOR Herald declining to publish the following I respectfully ask you to let it appear in your paper W D EATON Hon G L Root makes a purported of the Mirror charges through your col- 1 must ask for space The ity and gravity of his acts are by his effort to escape But his denial is not a de- it is an attempted evasion and a deprecation only He Advertiser annex and to the and the unavoidable inference is also to the Recorder Root Alderman State nnu for the nominations and support gave him the first and without these he cannot re- turn to the Capitol The Mirror ed him well for all these the Observer and and because Weeks is a of his Root solicits public work for him from Republican officials More of the story should now be told Tuesday last I asked Auditor Horn printing of the election ballots He replied they had already been ordered from office up owner he could not even upon the solicitation wf prominent Republican C L A mutual friend showed Mr Horn how had been imposed upon by Mr I called at his office again and was informed that I could print the but that as Weeks had ready made preparations for the that job must be left with him During years in the business I have known but one Instance of equal to this action of and in the other case there was the explanation of anger at the cation of most flagrant criminalities that an agent of yours could have the cheek to Treasurer Lubbers to publish the de- delinquent tax list in your if you imagine Hon Waller I Hayes that you have the The cases are precisely analagous job office is an an a beneficiary of the Teaser in political he has printed ty ballots previously upon that only one year ago he listed a and lion C L- Koot with others bad joint oversight of that list does not it does not even deny In the in- of himself and Farver with the statement of the prove that Koot got in his work after Mr Horn had said he not give them the work because an old soldier friend was interested In

of the his not Koou W EATON p nae further for brief reply to Auditor sin to in the of the He did tell mo be had ibe of the November work that way If C L Koot is nominated for we will not support him But I do not suppose this decision and course will have any effect upon the for if indications are of any moment Root's defeat is foredoomed W D EATON Mr Root carefully dodges the main the ballots were promised the Teaser annex upon the of prominent C L The Herald declines to print and calmly ignores the same advising us to get over our and turn the other cheek Successful politicians manipulate putty so and are so accustomed to having their that they forget there is material which hardens by heating and working do not flatter ourselves that our opposition will kill but we are firmly convinced thut there will be a heavy majority against and we profoundly regret that he is on our ticket Ambitious should not rob their friends of what is their due to furnish aid and comfort to the

interest in mich wo present the following from Hon M Curtis Congressman in an with u Herald gives to the public much that is interesting con- the matter of Post Office throughout the Second Dis- and the patrons of the various offices in the six counties comprising the District will be especially interested in knowing the policy which has in the appointments already made and which will obtain in yet to come While all the candidates for Post Office ment in the District have been made acquainted with the plan of deciding the it is a matter which will equally interest every Post Office patron Congressman follows a well-defined plan in the settlement of Post Office cases throughout his Dis- and the one adopted by man Curtis was designed to treat fairly alike both patrons and candidates In this respect it has proven a succ the many recommendations made thus far in accord with such policy having been satisfactory to the great majority of the Republican patrons of the re- Asked by a Herald representative in regard to Post Office man Curtis willingly consented to cuss the question in and to nish a concise statement as to his method of deciding as between the eral candidates for each office he 140 Post Offices in the Second and up to this time there are perhaps 50 or offices for which no candidates have applied These are largely offices which command a salary of from to per year How best to decide these hundred or more contests for Post with as many as a dozen active candidates for some of and yet treat each candidate and his friends with equal was a question not easily solved early in April last I defined a policy which was to govern me in every Post Office and each of the candidates I have stated that as I will recommend for Post Office appointment the candidate who pre- sents the strongest support from can and Sound Money Democratic patrons of the office In outlining this I have not deemed it proper to make suggestions to candidates with to the aration or presentation of but have given assurance that all papers presented would have my careful and serious how do you determine which candidate has the strongest was asked petitions are as usually is the I require with each a duplicate in alphabetical with occupation and politics of each signer marked opposite his if any of the signers are not voters or patrons of the office I ask that the same be indicated In considering ments in this I eliminate those whose names appear on more than one except where I have a tive expression as to the real choice In nearly every case a largo number of letters are received from patrons expressing their choice pendent of their signatures to petitions and those are of course carefully taken into consideration The relative port of the various candidates is thus made quite clean 4 far as I know this policy meets the approval of Republicans generally throughout the as I belie vo every fair-minded man that the of the various Post are the best informed as
