Unfair to Brown sparks postmaster controversy in Americus
In the Macon Telegraph the prominent Capt. W. W. Brown faces sharp attacks over his stance on the Dudley postmaster nomination. Brown opposed Dudley and tried to block his confirmation, while allies defend him. The piece cites a close friend’s account of Brown’s efforts and asserts the charge is untrue. The column also notes outside influence on Dudley’s selection and includes unrelated advertisements for paints and salves.
