WHAT PRICES NE to believe that my recommendation would have great weight with him. I could not recomminond a man unless Ie was lit for the offico and willing to accept it. T knew Gen. Hampton was well qualified to discharge the duties of postmaster of Columbia, but I did not know whether he would accept the plIce or not. From what was said at the time a home was givel Gon. llamptol. I suppose such a salary as that of postmaster of Columbia would be peculiarly ac coptablo to him as placing him in a p)osition of independence. But I know lhe was 01(d and cherished bit torness toward all wvho were in any wvay responsible for his retirement from the United States Senate, and [ did not intenid to have my friend tendoer an oilice to GJon. Hampton anid have it rejected. So I told Sen ator McLaurin I would make my recommeilndaition later. "I then talked the matter over with three Columbians and 1 asked one of theom to ascertain if Gheneral 11amptAon wvould accept appointment as postmaster of Columbia, and to make it perfectly plain that abso lutely no conditions wvould be at tached to tihe appointment, but that if ho accepted it lie would not he trammelled in any way and would be consideored absolutely free to sup. port or cppose whom lhe pleased. It was an honorable offer, couched in courtons terms. It was meant as a recognition of Hampton's worth and past services to the State, ser Vices whlich, hlowovor, did not entitle him to election to at representa tive oflice, if is views were at .variance with those of the people whom hoe would have to represent. The gentleman saw Ghen. Hampton andl the reply was as courteous as thle otTer, being that Ghen. Hampton would not accept the appointment. There had been no suggestion of "buying" Ghen. Hampton in the offer and there was scorn in its re jection. So his words as reported in todlay's State are a surprise, to say the least of them. Neither McLau rin nor McKinley offered an ofice to Goen. Hampton. "In conclusion I desire to state t 'he information of my offer wvas nc.a given the public by me. I told McLaurin of what I had done and he said it would have given him pleasure to have used his influence in behalf of Ghen. Hampton to secure him Ia office without pledge or con dition. I said nothing about the matter to anybody else and am at a loss to understand bow it became public. "George B. Koester. "Olumbia, 8. C., May1, 1001."
