Here Is One Democrat Who Says He is Not After Postoffice But Is Supporting Another. j 8 Eli Gerber talks. He says he is not a candidate for the postoffice. Of the seven or eight men Mentioned in The Republican as aspirants for the nice piece of political velvet, be is the only one to deny it. “You will please say for me,” said Mr. Gerber, “that I am not after the postoffiice, but am going to do all in my power to help Nefen Littlefield get It.” It is generally conceded that Mr. Littlefield is entitled to the place and if the square deal prevails he will get it However, there is occasionally a slip in the square deal policy in politics and some of the other patriots are certain to use eyery means they can mlister to make Hon. John B. (Steel Trust) Peterson believe that he could not possibly have been elected if it had not beCif for him.
