HAS REMOVED ALL THE GERMANS

EDITOR HELBER SAYS NOT A GERMAN POSTMASTER LEFT

In the Whole Second Congressional District - Heinrich Is No Longer Heinrich but Plain Henry

It is not so long ago that Congressman Smith was posing as the friend of the Germans. His name was put in the German press as Heinrich Schmidt. Now the tune has changed, as witness the following from the Washtenaw Post:

"Congressman Smith has sent in the name of O. T. Hoover as postmaster at CHelsea to succeed Wm. Riemenschneider. Mr. Smith has now made a clean sweep of all German postmasters in this district of five counties, as we had predicted, for aside of only a few minor offices where there is practically no salary and none but a German to conduct the office, there is not a postmaster left in this district of five counties who can speak the German language and yet this congressman sought to pose as a friend of the Germans. The fact is republican statesmen have little use for Germans "after election." They deem the Yankees the only annointed of the Lord and openly say the Germans ought to be satisfied with being permitted to live in this glorious country and to vote the republican ticket."
