Beale backs McLain for Indiana postmaster
Congressman Beale recommends Capt. G A McLain of Todiana as postmaster to succeed James C McGregor, who term ends December 16. Cunningham withdraws, McGregor smiles, and state influences favor McGregor's reappointment while backers press the president through the First Assistant Postmaster General. The job pays 2100 yearly. Roosevelt asks Senate to confirm Iddo M Lewis as postmaster at Roasiter. Lewis is a Republican stalwart from Indiana County and an ex athlete who served at Chickamauga in 1898.
