This newspaper article briefly comments on the published correspondence between Representative Augustus Peabody Gardner and Attorney General William H. Moody regarding the Haverhill postmastership. It concludes that President Roosevelt did the correct thing in reappointing Postmaster Horace I. Pinkham on the recommendation of Moody, rather than using the position as political patronage for Gardner.
