Post mastership at Wooster contested by local officials
Ex congressman Smyser and W J H Bryson of Wooster visit Senator Hlunuwa to discuss the Wooster postmastership. Bryson heads Wayne County Republican committee and is a leading candidate alongside incumbent T J Flattery. Mrs McKinley asks for Flattery's reappointment, supported by family ties to Dr Phillips. The Wayne county Republican organization opposes retention, and it is uncertain if President Roosevelt will heed sentiment or party wishes. Senator Hanne said Wooster postmastership not yet decided.
