After the organization the assocfation was addressed by Bdward Rosewater and Congressman Hinshaw of the Fourth istrict and then went to Have- Jock in & special train to inspect the shops as ‘the guests of the Burlington offcials. Tonight the association adjourned after enjoying a smoker given by the Commercial club. One hundred and Afty-six postmas- tors were registersd Tho meeting was held in the federal court rooms of the postoffice and the post- masters were welcomed by Mavor Adams and Postmaster Siger, who was later chosen president, and J. W. McDonald, president of the Commercial club. Responses were made by J. R Haye of Norfolk and Frark McCartney of Nebraska City. Consid- erable pleasaniry was Injected into the rroceedings at the outsel when Mr. Me- Donald invited all of the postmasters to the Commercial club smoker Mr. Siger remarked that this mode of entertainment |might not be acceptable to the postmis- tresses present. This brought Mr. MoCart- ney to his feet with the announcement that he neither smoked nor drank and conse- Quently was in the same boat with the women. Chairman Siger immediately ap- pointed him chairman of the committee to look after the entertainment of the women with power to select as many unmarried postmasters as he thought would be needed to show the women & good time. The object of the association, as defined {by the comstitution, is to benefit postal service by the exchange of ideas.

Mr. Rosewater addressed the associa- tion in the afterncon and his talk was of |Eneland. In beginning he stated that whie the postmasters had formed a union he believed that none of its members would advocate & strike, at least until afterhis term of office had expired. He told of the superiority of the English system, of the |relationship of the press to the system 1and of Its progress, largely due to nmews- {paper men. Of the changes during the last twenty-five years in the postal system he said none had been more moticeable than its divorcement fram politics.

Mr. Rosewater then spoke of the time he Was & member of the postal congress and of his experfence in the old country when he investigated the postal system: twelve vears ago. In Berlin he sald the authorities sald their only cbjection to their system was that they could mut discharge an em. | Ix;loyo without he had done wrong or was | POt competent. This he considered was the strongest point of their system. coerce an employe the matter would at once be taken up by Parliament. | The postmaster at this place not emly held that position, but was the head of the telegraph and savings bank and was the internsl revenue collector. There were fifty-six substations within a radius of office. After stating that he believed the posta) service would be revolutionized by the tele- sTaph Mr. Rosewater closed his address with this quotation from a letter written | to the Chicago Record-Herald by William | | E. Curtis from London during the last few weeks: ! Make Postal Service Pay. | “The British postal service ‘pavs a big | revenve because it is so well conducted No people on earth use the mails so much as Englishmen. Last vear their postoffices handled 257500000 pleces of mail, an av- erage of 63 for every man, woman and child in the kingdom: 45,900,000 postal cards, which is 116 for each person; 05,500,000 packets, which is 19.3 per capita: 90,0000 larger parcels, or 21 per capita, and 17,- 400,000 newspapers, or 42 per capits, which is & total of 41NN, or %5 pleces of mail per capits of the population.

He aid not believe though that & man, because be had been made & postmaster, had to lose his political rights, but advised him to ®et out in the primaries and to the con- assist in putting good mesn in then toid of the Cleveland idea oficebolder.

The same charge wi brought against a democrat in Pennsyl- vania, but the man was not removed, be cause Cleveland held that partisanship in office was “opposing the party in power. He thought it would not be showing too much partisanship in hustling up votes for President Roosevelt. He believed in civil service reform and was mighty glad that the postmasters in the Fourth district were allowed to serve four years after their ap- pointment. In discussing the rural routes, which Mr Hinshaw considered a most important branch of the postal service, he advised the carrfers not to be 100 aggressive. By this be meant for them not to gobble up the routes of other carriers or other towns that were not so enterprising. In showing that the rural routes were the means of disseminating education Mr. Hinshaw said at Wahoo, where they have four routes, and are fighting for a fifth, they now dis- tribute to the farmers 20 dally papers where before the rural routes were estab- lished but three were taken At the conclusion of this the association went to Havelock Those W those who were Attended.

Bright Prospects in Cuming. WEST POINT, Neb, Oct. ¥.—(Bpecial) —At mo time within the last twenty-five years have the republicans of this county been in such good position politically as they are this year. The prospects for an almost entire sweep of the ticket are good and if the present indications continue to election day the result is assured. The democrats re divided into two parties of about equal numerical strength and great animosity is shown by one to the other. Fusion with the populists was very dis- tasteful to the majority. but is was forced {upon them. They openly threaten to bolt |the ticket st the polis. The democratic | ticket is singularly weak, in great contrast |to the republican. It would seem that they {had scoured the county, with ome or twe | exceptions, to secure candidates whose past record and present qualifications | would engender criticism and promote strife in their pacty. Another factor tend- {ing to give the republicans great courage | |is the fact of the democratic majorities being cut down steadfly from year to year | A few years ago they carried this county by 0 votes. At the Jast general election their majority was less than 300 Dedicate New Parsonage. BEATRICE, Neb.
