Pearson Reappointed Postmaster in Political Bargain
A Washington Hatchet writer recalls a tale of Henry G. Pearson being reappointed New York Postmaster after a deal among Thomas L. James Arthur P. Gorman and Pearson. The pact allegedly blocked voter turnout for Republicans and secured Pearson’s return in exchange for Gorman’s support of Cleveland. The piece questions Mugwump reactions to the alleged “machine methods” and labels it a family affair.
