Ardmore's Contest is an Intense and Complicated Affair. " Washington, Sept. 17. The fight over the postmastership at Ardmore, 1. T., is Incoming moro intense daily, and as it is protract ed the situation Incomes more com plicated. For a third-class post- ofllca, with a salary attachment of o'aly Jf2,000 per annum, the con test is fcH spirited as any which has occur.ed over a small postoflice in any of ti o states. Twice the case lias leen .disposed of by the posto'lnce department and sent to the president for the attachment of his signature to-a commission appointing' Stephen A. Douglas postmaster, but each tme the .1 i .i ... . . papers, togemer wun toe commis sions, were returned to the post office department with a request from the president to hold them for further consideration. , . The whole trouble over the ap pointment of a republican post master at Ardmore arises from the fact that there has been a change in the republican national commitee from the territory. Tne term of the present postmas ter at Ardmore -expired eight months ago, and ' Dr. . Bennett, then national committeeman from the territory indorsed Mr. Red field for the place. Stephen A. Douglass, who is a nephew b the inner statesman from Illinois ot t same name, was urged for the phk 'enya large numler of the moft prominent citizens of the territo rv llc'on however, was taki "n on caso ft' 'me of the ex 'iraujn 01 in term oi the preset 'l Posl,n;lstcr- In the meantime, i )r" Bennett, who was national coroi -i was uc r it mi im ceoded by Jlx iuail"t. "en Dr. BennettV tfe rm Mr. Douglas' friendl urgeU Jus can didacy with more- v. "or thiln ever. Iwlieving Mr. Ala 13a, ' 'ould fide the nppointimmt The ncw i national committeennin, "wever, : refused to make any reconimcnda- otis," upon the ground that the term of the f resent postmaster ex pired while l is predecessor was in office, and that it would be nn to coming in him to submit a reeomj niendation for the fling of cn office which properly to his pre decessor. It was understood at the department here, however, that, while Mr: Mallet would net recommend the appointment of Douglas to Redfield. Some time ago the postmaster general took up the case and sent the nomina tion of Stephsn A. Djuglas to the presidential . for . his' signature, together with all the papers in the case. Abont the same time a number of telegrams wee received by the "preside tit, urging him to appoint Redtk'ld, , .When the papers raeched the White House, President . McKinley examined them carefully aud returned them to the department, with the re quest that they be held, pending further development. Two weeks ago the postmaster general again took up the caso and again recom mend the ' appointment of Mr. Douglas. Again the papers were returned to the 'postotliee depart ment by the president, i rom present indications the new nation al 'commiteeman w ill bo forced to to make a recommendation, in which event there seems to be lit tle doubt that he will indorse Douglass for the office.
