Railroad Commissioner Chadbourne has
been an exceptionally acceptable officer.
1t took a hard fight to get the minority
representation on the board but it was
finally accomplished and Governor Cleaves
apparently finds it has worked well. It
is in accordance with the right idea to
make and keep the board non partisan
(Biddcford Record.)
The reappointment of Hon. b. +. Chad,
bourne of this city, as railroad inspector,
was expected and deserved No man in
this State Is better qualified for the posi-
ton. The appointment is for four years.
(Biddcford Timcs)
Mr.. Chadbourue's especial fitness for
the place assures him continuance in
Office, one where he gives great sat'sfac-
tion and in which he takes great interest.
portland Argus.)
The appointment by Governor Cleayes
of Benjamin +. Chadbournc on the board
OF railroad commissioners will meet with
approval. The precedent was established
by Governor Pcrhamg in 1872, when the
late John +. Anderson of this city was ap
pointed commissioner, of giving one mem
Der of the Democratic party place on the
board; and Governor Cleaves has recop-
nized this just principle.
