of democrats throughout the

at least to get near the tree.

the 35,000 third and fourth class postmasterships

a revocation of this order or not

If he decides against asking for a

which would be open also to others. If
the president took the first course,
thousands of postmasterships would
available at once, and if he chose the
other, democrats would have as good
a chance as republican incumbents.
Ever since Mr. Taft issued his famous
order which with a similar one
a
by Mr. Roosevelt, put every imra ana |
fourth class postmaster in the country
in the classified service. It has been
subjected to a vigorous criticism by
\
' democrats who charged that its pur'
pose was to keep in office through Mr.
Wilson's term thousands of republicans
who were not in sympathy with
the administration and who were given
euch protection merely to keep the re

order. Mr. Burleson has given the order
serious consideration and any recommendation
he makes to the president
is likely to have weight.
Patronage Plan.
Mr. Burleson and Chairman McCombs
of the democratic national committee,
ihave settl-ed upon a plan for patronage |
'distribution, which also will be submitted
to the president shortly. If it
Is followed, the question of whether a
cj.nnviate for office is t?a Rei t?y "organization"

will be advised to go upon the principle
that any man who subscribes to
the democratic platform and shows
?his belief in democratic principles is
politically fit for office. Personal fitness,
of course, will be considered

or pre-convention alliances will have j
little weight. This disposition has |
heen shown in the first batch of presi- j
dential appointments, Some of the
most prominent men who^n the president
has named thus far opposed his
nomination at Baltimore.
William's Appointment.
The appointments today of John j
1 Skelton Williams as assistant secre- j
tary of the treasury was viewed by
callers at the WTiite Hou9e as an example
of the selection of an independent
democrat.
The selection of Beverly T. Gallo
"way to be assistant secretary of agriculture
is regarded ae an appointment
in which political affiliations
were not considered, since he has served
in that department through several
administrations. The nomination
State Senator Frederick D. Roose
velt to be assistant secretary of the
Navy recalls his opposition in many
cases to Charles F. Murphy, of New
York, Representative Edwin F. Sweet,
of the assistant secretaryship of

Washington, March 13.?President
"Wilson sent the following nominations
to the senate today:
John Skelton Williams, of Richmond, i

Franklin D. Roosevelt, of New York j
assistant secretary of the Navy.
Beverly T. Galloway, assistant Bee- j
retary of agriculture.
Edwin F. Sweet, of Grand Rapids,
Mich, assistant secretary of Commerce.
Jas. A. Edgerton, of New Jersey,
purchasing agent of the postoffice department.
All were referred to committee.
"I see that President-elect Wilson
hasn't made up his mind about his
cabinet y-et."
"Dear me," she sighed. "I do hope
he'll decide to select one of those new
fashioned ones that are easy to sweep
under."?Detroit Free Press.
"It is odd," said he, "how the most
important letters will become unimportant
if you give them time."
