GROVES GETS
' POSTPOSITIBB
Which Stirs up Hornet's
Nest at Monmouth in
Democratic Ranks
West Salem News
MONMOUTH. June 14. The
loyal democratic party aggrega
tion of Monmouth threatened to
split on the rocks of high dud
geon Tuesday night, when the pat
ronage plum tree shook in this
territory, announcing the appoint
ment ef Oscar M. Groves as tem
porary postmaster.
;'Ab4 as a result petitions were
lm circulation today and get
ting 100 per cent support pro
testing appointment of Groves.
The race for postmastership
kern had Included seven appli
cants which in recent months had
dwindled to three active partici
pants: A. H. Craven, secretary
treasurer of the Polk county
democratic committee; H. W.
Morlan, president of the local
chamber of commerce, and B. L.
Sellers, bank clerk, all life-long
democrats.
Groves, a registered republican
until 1932, rad not been consid
ered a strong contender, since he
does not and never has own
ed property in Monmouth, isn't a
resident of this city, and has re
ceived his mail from Monmouth,
via rural delivery, for less than
two years. Hence the active demo
crats are considerably perturbed
about Groves' appointment.
Telegrams of protest were im
mediately sent to Walter M.
Pierce and James M. Farley by
C. C. Mulkey, chairman of the
local democratic precinct commit
teemen. Several business men
called attention to the fact that
Groves has never patronized Mon
mouth tradesmen, that be lives
some 15 miles out of town, and
has legion and lodge affiliations
at Dallas.
"If any one of us democrats
had been appointed this would be
time for congratulations," said
H. W Morlan to a group of citi
zens and fellow-aspirants, gather
ed at Morlan's store for discus
sion of the surprising appoint
ment. Appointment a "Sop"
Invectives were directed at
James A. Farley, Walter M.
Pierce, Carl C. Donaugh and
Tracy Savery, for their evident
un-democratlc procedure. It was
pointed out that the appointment
of Groves, and, simultaneously, of
Glen Smith as postmaster at In
dependence, may be intended by
the administration as a sop to
Polk county organizations of the
American Legion anent the strife
between congress and President
Roosevelt over the veterans' pay
lash.
In Independence the situation
is parallel to that of Monmouth,
since Smith received the tempor
ary appointment over R. W. Bak
er, vice and acting chairman of
the Polk county democratic com
mittee; Grove A. Petersan a life
long prominent democrat, and J.
Wayne Mack, prominent young
democrat who is known to have
stood high In favor with Carl C.
Donaugh.
Groves stated months ago that
Donaugh was Bupport him 100
per cent. Confronted with this
statement by active democrats,
Donaugh assertedly flouted but
did not deny the Implication.
Tracy Savery, chairman of the
Polk county democratic commit
tee, received the temporary post
mastership in March at Dallas,
over. Jack Eakin, head of the state
legion organization. Since then
Savery has relinquished his ac
tivity as county chairman, this of
fice going to R. W. Baker of In
dependence, vice-chairman.
