Removed ns Postmistress of the
Local Office.
If a bomb had exploded in the
middle of the Cochran block it
would not have created more sur
prise than the two-line announce
ment in the Oregonian Inst .Satur
day morning that Mayor Yuleiitinc
had been nppointed and confirmed
as postmnster of Ht. Johns.
No one was prepared for such an
announcement. The excellent ser
vice given by Postmistress Clark
and the fact that the office had only
recently been advanced from a
fourth class to a third class, or a
presidential office, led all to believe
that the sacrifices made and the ex
cellent service rendered by Postmis
tress Clark would be rewarded by
an appointment for another term of
four years.
The surprise occasioned by the
Oregonian's telegram was mingled
with indignation. Many expressed
their disapproval of the appoint
ment of Mayor Valentine. All com
mented on the fact that Postmistress
Clark had taken the office at the
solicitation of friends when the
office, was practically worthless.
Now that she was about to be re
warded, it was nothing more than
light that she should be appointed
for another term.
No one had an inkling that Mrs.
Clark was to be deposed. Ques
tions were asked as to how she was
removed. What was the leason
Who was dissatisfied? Who ap
pointed Mayor Valentine? Why
was the change made sosecietivelv?
