ran oOVKRSOR's APPonrMKxrs.

The governor is very undecided about
his appointments. he expects TO pre-
pare complete list without making
any exception in favor Of the officers
whose records ere landmarks Ia the
history OF the teKritoFy's Affairs. The
pFesent indications are that John Mil
Ter Murphy or IL. o. Goodell will be
named As successor to Auditor Reed.
There 10 good authority for the asser-
iiOn that not q single appointment has
definitely been settled. The governor
wants 10 bold an informal conference
with the members Of the council before
sending In bis appointments. THIS, IL
is supposed, Is for the purpose Of seouF.
ing an idea IS 20 what are the appoint
ments with reference TO which the Re-
pablicans may desire to be heard. II
Is not likely that the Republicans viii
attend the conference on any other ba-
sss than the understanding that they
will be asked 10 agree upon q minority
representation of ell commissions and
penitentiaFy and insane aaylum EN-.
plOyes. It Is not ail unlikely that the
Republicans may demand the retsn-
ton OF Auditor Reed.
