Ball'" Family Piila art tba beat. A recommendation was sent to President Roosevelt, Wednesday, by United States Senator Fulton, Indors ing Chester G. Coad for re-appoint-inent as Postmaster at Dallas. The appointment of Mr. Coad to succeed himself had been generally expected, and will meet the approval of every patron of the office. Mr. Coad is a native son of Polk county, having been born and raised in Dallas. After completing his edu cation, he spent several years in Eastern Oregon, and afterwurds entered the employ of the Government as a surveyor. In 1888, he received the Republican nomination for Clerk of Polk County, and was elected by a handsome majority. He proved a capable and efficient officer, and was re-elected ln 1900 by a larger majority than before. At the end of his term in 1902, he entered the employ of the Dallas City Bank, as Cashier, and served in that capacity about two years. During this time the Rickreall Flouring Mill came into possession of M. M. Ellis, President of the Bank, and Mr. Coad resigned his position as Cashier to take charge of the office work of the mill company. He re mained in this position until in the late '90s, when he received an appoint ment as Assistant Doorkeeper of the United States Senate. It was while filling the last-named position in Washington City, that he received the appointment as Postmaster at Dallas. In all these various capacities, Mr. Coad has served his employers faith fully and efficiently. As Postmaster, he has been courteous and obliging, and has conducted the office In such a manner as to make it a pleasure to transact business there. The an nouncement of his appointment for another four-year term will be good news to his many friends, not only in Dallas, but throughout the state. BOTH EYES BLOWN OUT Will Locate In Dallas. J. H.

Mr. Flower is a son-in-law of Harvey Robertson, a well-known resident of the Luckiamute neighborhood. Arthur Baker Meets Horrible Acci dent While Blasting Stumps Near Independence.
