'Th balance of the communication la an unfounded attack upon the Postoffica de partment at Washington, which certainly i-ennot constitute a charge against me. I fe'l aure that the patrons of the poat ifflee appreciate the fact that something iss taken place In the mntter of discipline utthln the Omaha office and Increased ef ficiency resulting thereby. Sore spots will veil when promotions are refund, but the conduct of tha posioffice la a big- business "om ern and It can hardly ba expected that a postmaster who Is trying- to put It on business aela will escape the bitterness of toma of the disappointed ones."
