Donovan, editor of the Madison Star-

Mr. Donovan Is emphatic In his declara

self with the democrats In tho Third con
gressional district and will not be able
to pull another nomination across, and
If he docs, It will bo practically easy for
a republican to defeat him.
Ills action In dodging the proposition of
appointing postmasters In the' good old

tent, according to Mr. Donovan, and tho
result of the postofflce primary In Mad

down and a man selected by republican
voters for the appointment has left sore
spots which cannot bo healed.
VNobody woujd have kicked very

had been selected for tho place, hut when
you take Into consideration that a re
publican called tho primary and re
publicans voted at that primary and
wero responsible for the choice of the
