TINE NEW BROOGLYN OFFICIALS

In making his appointm ents more than three
weeks before the time when the new officials
will begin their duties, Mayor Whitney showed
tina. be was tired of the ceaseess calls of
delegations in the interest of this man and
that, and especially that he was anxious to
prevent a recurrence of such a scene as that of
last Tuesday, when he was charged to his Iace
with bad faith. Whether he might not better
have taken little more time to make his
selections is a question. Perhaps il would
have made no difference, particularly as to some
of the most Objectionable appolntees. These
men are those selected by Mclaughlin, to reg
lister whose will Mr.. Whitney was nominated
for the Office to which he was elected by an
unfortunate division in the elements opposed
to the methods which he represents 1t is
significant that many of the delegations that
waited ON the Mayor also visited Mclaughlin
and appealed to him in behalf of their cand-
dates.
But Mr. Whitney has not shown altogether
blind subserviency to his political creator. SO
