On the 18th inst, Martin Pattlson, the
successful mayoralty candidate IN the re-
cent municipal election, was duly in
stalled. The council chamber was
thronged with curious crowd Of spec
tators interested in the distribution Of
the various city Offices. Mayor Pattison
read a very neat and yet very strong
address. in which he stated the policy OF
the incoming administration III unmis-
taxable terms, at the close of which he
made the following appointments City
Clerk, Ole j. Ronnlng; City Marshal
Samuel Evans; Chief of Fire Departs
ment, James j. McGill; City Engineer
E. B. Banks; Street Commissichen'
Henry Oberg; Park Commissioner, y r.
Catlin. The officers removed from t4as
above Offices are as follows City Cae:rs
J. A. Kelly, City Marshal M. Murphy,
City EngineerssArthur Thomas, Street
CommissionersJ ohm Finlanson, Chief Of
Fire Department Edmund Twohy. There
is considerable Dissatisfaction over some
of the removals, bussvh each case good
reliable men have beeA appointed, and
common justice on the part of the friends
of tue defeated candidates, if nothing
else, should prompt them in maintaining
silence $50 far as complaining is con-
cerned) until the new appointees have
been tried and found wanting in the dis
charge of their respective duties. 1t is
not only unjust, but unfair. as we'll, for
any one to assume that his friend alone
is capable of filling. IN an honorable and
honest manner, that particular Office
which political custom confers upon an
other. No one could wish the present
administration worse political fate than
that to which the outgoing ADMINISTERS
ton, after run of but one year, has
been consigned.
