Since Dr. Harding has sent in his resignation as postmaster of this city, two men have come to the front who would be willing to take it at the reduced salary. James Carney and John Ickes, we understand, are out with petitions which are being signed by their respective friends. As neither of the gentlemen have requested the John Han**** of this local, we have taken no interest in the matter, and will stand back, like the old woman when her husband and the bear fought, and be ready to applaud the victor.

The Times wishes the new management success in their undertaking.
