Friends of the present marshal
have circulated a petition among
(he business men addressed to
President Wilson asking his re
appointment as marshal in this
district. His term will expire next
July, when he will have served
lour years. The only objection
urged against his re-appointment
is his Republicanism, while as j
against this, his friends say--und
with justice—that lie has made
good; that his appointments have j
been made with rare good judg
ment and forethought; that his ;
administration of I lie office has
given satisfaction to the people;
(hat police protection in this di
vision is hotter and has been oet -
ler under his guardianship Ilian

It has been announced by Pres- j
ident-elect Wilson that the spoils j
system is a thing of the past;]
that competent, experienced offi
cers of (he government will be
retained, irrespective of party af
llliation; that only the good of (he
public service will be his aim in
making appointments. j
Many have signed the petition j
because of the desire to keep in
office experienced, faithful and
honest officials who make good.
