THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL,' PORTLAND FRIDAY. EVENING. JUNE 14, 1807., STAMPS STATEMENT . AS ABSOLUTELY FALSE Postmaster Minto Denies Accusation of Seattle's Assist- " ant Postmaster to Effect That He Was Reprimanded , 1 ior Alleged Padding of Local Postal Receipts. J Postmaster John W, Minto stamped ths statement of Assistant Postmaster Colkett of Seattle, to ths effect that : Mr. : Minto - had ' been severely 'Yeprl manded for padding Portland poatal re ceipts, as absolutely false snd without foundation. Mr. Minto atated . that he could . hot see where the Seattle man had the slightest foundation I for bla quoted statement because only ' the friendliest relations existed between the Portland office and the postal depart ment ai waanington. . : t': r v The statement of Colkett which BP' Beared in a Seattle newsDaner. follows "All of this Is immlm," said Colkett, "when it is remembered that, the. post master or Portland was severely repri ntanded by the department itt-Waih in r ton for allowing the returns of the office to v be , padded by i the r sale - of stamps to outside parties." ;.. Half Hearted Defense.:. 7 Colkett's remark waa caused br a story Which appeared in The Journal several days ago to the effect that the large vfiosta! receipts of Seattle, were obtained ly soliciting trade from towns ana cities adjacent to Seattle. The story, in which appears Colkett's weirh" dream about Mr. Minto being reprimanded, attempted a half-hearted defense of the sales of the ; Seattle office but . carefully refrained V from printing the monthly sales for the fiscal year ending March 11, 1907. A few figures were given out. an or wnicn were for the purpose of reflecting credit upon the Seattle office, but which wally showed the condition existing ' In the sound office. ' ' - . , Colkett said that the highest . sales were in December, 1808, when they reached $T,!6t, and the lowest were in February. 1908, when they were 139,485. This discrepancy .in Itself shows the rratlo sales that have been made at Seattle and is considered oy postof flee employes the best evidence that they : wore not made in a legitimate manner. Had they been made without resorting to the underhand methods used by the Beams people iney wouia nave Deen uniform for the entire year, the same aa at Portland and other offices In every siais in tne country. ... ;.. . Oeorretowa burs; Bayer, Further evidence that -the. Seattle sales were not made entirely In Seattle Is taken from a - story in the George town, Washington, Oasette- News, which says that the Georgetown brewery re cently purchased 11,800 worth of stamps in neat lie. T- That' the brewery at Georgetown was not the only firm thst was made' to Par tribute to Seattle's greatness and incf-l dentally to Increase the salary of Post niaater Stewart and his assistant. Is known because of the fact that another firm in Georgetown was approached and asked to buy 1300 wortb of stamps from the Seattle postofflce. The proprietor refused to do so, and made known the fact that underhand methods were being employed to swell - the Beatue receipts. , . Tew Becelpts OItsb Out. Mr. Colkett save further that hers has been no disposition to conceal the I monthly - recelpta of the Seattle office, but all attempts to secure these state ments by outsiders have heretofore failed and even now In the story alven out by Colkett. only receipts for a' few ward Nichols, Kenneth Poorman, Charles months were made public. , .
