SUPERVISORS OF ELECTIONS.
Tho President will Designate the Depart
ment to Control Them,


WAsHNoToS, D. o., August 26,-one OF
the Hrst acts devOlying upon the President
upon his return will be the designation of
the Executive Department which shall
hereafter have control Of and look after
the Supervisors Of Elections, The law
providing for the creation OF this office as
signs It to the supervision Of no particular
department, nor does the law fixing the
"psrmansnt appropriation" by which the
office is supplied with funds, assign 10 any
department the duty OF their distribution.
For years the fact that United States
MsTshals, under the control OF the Depart
ment OF Justice, were expected cooperate
with the Supervisors, has led TO the placing
OF the control Of the latter officials In the
hands oi that department.
Attorney General Devin brought up the
question OF the transfer Of the control to
the Treasury Department, and for one
year the Secretary OF the Treasury direct
I'd the Supervisors In their work. Then
It was concluded that as the Narshals un-
der the direction OF the Department Of
Justice could disburse Supervlsors' funds,
and thus save the necessity Of getting out
an extra set Of bonds for the Supervisors,
the Attorney General was again placed In
charge Of these officials,
Last Spring Attorney General Garland
raised the question OF tue control Of these
supervisors, and 1t was made atOpiC OF
discussion in several Cabinet meetings.
1t was finally decided that the President
should make q permanent assignment Of
these Supervisors to the control Of some
department, as he is directed TO do by
law, This has not yet been done, but
will have to be before the fall elections,
and will probably receive attention soon
after the Presidents return,
II is stated at the Department Of JUS
tlCe that the Administration had express
ed no determination to secure more
economical handling Of the funds In the
hands OF Supervisors Of Elections" as has
been reported.
Under the law every city OF 10000 in.
habitants can have Supervisors appointed
Ii desire is expressed, Very few cities
as yet have had them. Every Chief Super
visor il empowered to appoint one or two
deputies In each Congressional district,
who are to serve not more than ton days,
at five dollars q day. The law fixes deti-
nitely what iees the Chief Supervisor may
be allowed, and there is little opportunity
OF evasion. 1t ia true that In John L.
Davenports district and In Aliens dis
trict, in Brooklyn, the election expenses
have been inordinateIy heavy, but there
Is no good reason to believe that they
have not been legitimately incurred. The
authorities at the Department OF Justice
say that the law contemplates that as much
money shall be used as will carry out the
provisions for securing honest and safe
elections, and under the permanent ap-
preparation $4,000 or half million may
be spent.-
