Inquirer

TIE CIV ENShDHO iIE>S'
Inquirer.
The long contest for the Office Of
Collector of Internal Revenue in this
district was brought TO an end yes
terday by the appointment Of Hunter
Wood, Of llopkinsvile, Christian
county. The result was predicted in
late number of the Inquirer, for
while this paper desired to see the
Office given to Mr.. Powers, ii was al
so DESTROYS of giving the news. and
the race seems to have been practic-
ally settled at that time.
a fact not generally known, is that
Capt. Farley made way for a success
orby forwarding his resignation last
Wednesday, TO take effect at the
pleasure Of the Secretary of the
Treasury. Captain Farley has hint
self gone to Mammoth Cave and en-
pected TO hear of a settlement of the
matter soon. The fact of the reaig-
nation was kept profound secret, be-
ing known to only one man in his
Office.
Mr. Powers made strong fight for
the office, and was faithfully backed
by Senator Beck. Only Mr.. Woods
strong backing as an original. Clevc-
land man from away back" made
him unconquerable. If he could
have been oustcd from his impreg-
nable position by anybody, Mr..
Powers would have been the man,
for he made the fight long and
hard one.
Beyond the regret at the defeat of
one of her citizens, Owensboro has
another reason to fear the result of
this appointment. 1t may possibly
result in the removal of the collectors
office to IIopkinsvile.
Messenger.
When the Messengers Washington
dispatch was received last night an
nouncing the appointment of Mr..
Hunter Wood to the cOlectorship, a
few of Col. Powers intimate friends |
were informed of it and interviews
were sought with them, Col. Powers
himself being absent in Padncah, on
business. The news fell upon them
like thunderbolt. Their previous
information from Washington had |
been so positive that Powers would
be appointed, and had apparently
come so straight from the Secretary
of the Treasury, that 10 uneasiness
had been felt among them for weeks.
Col. Powers left home two days ago
confident and sanguine. Nobody I'M
derstoOd it; none had theory to Of
fer save that Mr.. Woods Cleveland
vote must have done it, as he was
vigorously opposed by both Senators
and had but three instead of four
Congressman, as reported backing
him, with Mr.. Lailoon giving him
really the only active support he had.
While it was the earnest wish in
Greensboro that Col. Powers should
receive the place, Mr.. Woods APP
pointment will create no great dis
lie is Il gentleman of
the most genial manners and will
soon make friends among our peO-
pie. The Messenger, while itself
over the defeat of one of
the best friends it ever had, bids the
new collector welcome.

THE COLLECTORSHIP.
Mr.. WOOD, THE EoPKINSVILLE
APPLICANT, WINS THE
COVETED PLACE.
What the owensboro Papers Think
Of it.

The long contest for the Collector
ship Of the Second Revenue District
of Kentucky, was settled last Friday
by the appointment of Mr.. Hunter
Wood, Of this city, to succeed Farley,
the present Incumbent, The contest
narrowed down between Wood and
Powers, OF Davies, and those on the
inside had regarded it as virtually
settled for several days.
Mr.. Wood is now receiving appli-
cations for positions by mail and tel
egraph at the rate Of fifty day.
He las the appointment Of about
100 suborlnates, unless the force is
reduced as is being done in some
districts.
The New Collector has not yet al
ranged his bonds, but will do so in a
few days. lie is required TO give
two bonds, one for 100000 and the
other for $4,000 and his bondsmen
mast be worth double the amount,
or 100000 and $4,000 respectively.
Mr. Wood is not ready yet to make
any announcements as to his deputies.
His force has been selected in part,
but will not be given to the public
for some days.
lie will make but few removals at
first, as he will need experienced as
sistants until lac can acquaint himself
with the duties of the Office.
lie will not remove his family 10
Greensboro, but will continue to make
this his home.
He will take charge Of the office
probably in about two weeks, or soom-
CT if he can get his arrangements
made. The Office pays salary of
$LJ00 per anhum.

COMMUNICATED.

We have often while sitting in our domicil admired our beautiful angelic form. But never did We so much ad. mire ourself as we do on such occasions as the Fourth of July when we are call ed on to deliver the oration, and OUT sweetheart is setting back amidst the throng that is always gathered to hear the eloquence of the great mogul of the far west, when it has been publicly announced that he is going to deliver the oration at such a place as Shoe String Flat. Now it Is no easy matter to make speech on the Fourth of July, for on such occasions as that people expect to hear some thing about our nation; of course every man who can deliver an oration ex- poets to be called on to do so, but that is where they get left; but with us it is always a sure thing-consequently we have our subject selected for about thirty-fve Fourth of Julys ahead. Per- haps our brother orator would be more successful if he would select his sub- ject out and post himself on it-I do not mean to nail himself up to post, but to acquaint himself with what he is going to talk about-and if he is in- clined to be dull in selecting his subject, I will suggest for his benefit that he mention George Washington as the father of his country. and branch off from that. 1 have often thought how
 restless the founder of our American freedom is in his grave when he knows that every one in all this glorioDs Union who is able to buy two and half dol lar ring is hashing his name up along with that of Ingersoll and Thomas Pane. Now Pane was great man and so is the pain in the back of our head after We have partaken freely of the snake bite remedy, and do not see why Washington should groan every time his name is mentioned in connection with that of Pane, nor do we know that he does, yet something must cause those earthquakes. haved often

to any other possible conc. usion why the earth trembled on or about the Fourth of July, and then sometimes later in the year we hear of an earth quake happening somewhere on this ecumenical, and are inviting scientific investigation. find that it is because Washington is getting tired of having his name brought forth from the tomb and hurled through infinite space with that of the British lion every Fourth of July.
 Long about the year 1850, when the California gold excitement was at the acme, and the people had Fourth of July speech about every day, and some hero who had fought under Washing ton would take his departure for wo.lds unknown, and no doubt but what he would call on Washington as he would so journey, and tell him how he had just fought a hard battle for him and how he fell in the conflict. Then Wash ington would turn over and cause one of the greatest earthquakes that was ever known to take place in the last hundred thousand years. No doubt but what he was proud to meet one of his old veterans, and he would cause this earthquake to take place in the hopes that some more of his old pards would come along and tell him how he died for him. But I think G. w. is getting pretty tired of such things nowadays, so will take this opportunity to in- form the gentle public that they must not expect to hear anything about the great hero, the founder of America $ freedom, at the coming Fourth of July in 1920. But will talk on what Mir. Fisk aptly calls "deanthropomorphiza- tion," if you know what that is.
