The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1893-01-03

polntment OF Mr.. Newman last night, Mr..
Ebert said:
"Mr. Newman is warm friend and l
have known him from boyhood. lie IS a
young man of exemplary reputation and
qualifications and well qualified TO hold the
position have given him.
"Of course / had many applications for
the place, but had no trouble in making
I selection. The position Is more of con-
fdenta than of a political nature. There
fore there were other things to consider
than politics."
Mr.. Newman is 81 years old and was a
schooImate of Mr.. Ellert's. For nearly
twenty years they have been close friends
and companions. The new clerk does not
profess TO be much of politician, and his
hardest work in that direction has always
been to help Mr.. Ebert. Every time his
friend was nominated Newman made per-
sonal fight for him. 1t is no wonder then
that the Mayor should remember his
friend.
Mr.. Newman has thorough business
education and quite record as an instruc-
tor. For some time he WAS teacher of the
Pacific Business College. and up to the
present time he has been an instructor at
the Commercial Night School. For several
years he has also been cashier for Tevis d
Fisher, the well-known real estate agents.
He was very busy last night in winding
up his accounts in order to enter the new
position to-day. and did not have much
time to talk about his appointment he
stopped long enough 10 say, however, that
in the Mayors Office newsgatherers would
ALWAYS be welcome and all would receive
equal consideration. As to the new clerks
looks-wel, lie is as good-l0oking as the
Mayor, and that is saying considerable. He
has friends by the hundred and they are ali
glad of his good fortune.
All of the city and county officials-elect
have considerable TO say on the quiet about
the hardness of the Election Commission
ers in issuing certificates 1t will be after
O'Clock this afternoon before the new Off
cials receive their certificates, as the Elec-
ton Board does not meet until that hour.
Perhaps the fact that the old Beard of Su-
pervisors holds its final meeting at 10
O'clock this morning has something to do
with the delay of the certificates. The Su-
pervsOrs intend to rush through three
franchises over the Mayors veto. and they
required just one more meeting before CIV
ing way to their successors.
