William 8. Borchers, Republican residing
In the Seventeenth Assembly district and a real
estate agent, was appointed by Mayor Strong
yesterday city marshal TO succeed Whitfield
II. Swayze. He was assigned to the Eleventh
District Civil Court
The now city marshal was appointed at the re-
quest OF Charles A. Flammer, n Brookfield MEM
ber of the Republican County Committee. Tho
Seventeenth district delegation TO the County
Committee was not solid for Brook field. but tho
power to dispense patronage which has been put
in the hands Of eS-Judge Flammer has. it is as
serted, made IL solid. and hereafter when any
occasion offers to show factional preference tho
five votes from that district may De expected to
be cast with tho Brookield folks.
Such hops as this are referred to by the
Brookneld factionists ~ tho remarkable
change in sentiment" OF the County Committee.
One Of the most complete changes OF sentiment
which will be recorded probably at the meeting
of the committee to be held on tho night of
April Is IL that OF tho five delegates from the
Sixth Assembly district, headed by George Hill
lard. All five were solid for Lauterbach at tho
organization. but since Hlliard has secured tho
appointment OF almost everybody ho has
backed for place. the sentiment in the Sixth
district has changed wonderfully II the senti-
ment Of tho Hilliard mon has changed, so has
that OF tho big body OF Republicans who follow
William II. Huber. John E. Milholland used
to speak OF Huber's organ ization n. the best and
strongest of any he numbered in his county
machine. When, therefore, Milholland went
over to the former enemy. Huber supposed he
would control the patronage in the sixth. lle
didn't. and he and his boys are ready to get out
next June in the reorganization primaries and
set Hilliard on his head.
Patronage has been used to change the sent;
Tor Lauterbach. Ex.United States Marshal
John w. Jacohus has undertaken by the dtstr-
button Of few places to change it in the Ninth
district. Some votes are sad to have Dcen
changed in the Nineteenth. and others in the

appointments cannot be made as reward for
political services. The Mayor has been exc

however. that they have changed enough votes
in the County Committee already to warrant

ing. II was intended to make the first show OF
strength in May but 1t has been argued that it
might be better to make the dcmonstration be-
fore tho Legislature adjourns for the effect It
may have on the passage of certain bills. II Is
thought that, II IL is shown that the Brookiield
faction is in a ajority in the County Commit
tee. no matter how TINT majority has been
obtained, legislators may hesitate to pass bills
inimical TO tho Strong administration:
All OF the city departments under Republican
control arc working harmonously to create
Hrookfeld and Strong sentiment. In the Street

along. for it is no secret hat all the Democrats
expect to get together in support Of local
ticket next fall In fact. negotiations looking TO
such union are already started In small way.
Tho idea is that the chance of success for a
Republican or mule ticket IN which the Repub-
Democrntic factions wants to make a Repubii-
can alliance.
The Stddts-Zeit,,ng organ of the Garoos has
come out plainly against Mayor Strong. who. 1t
declares. 70 too weak a man for the place, and

ization will not bo found in any Republican
alliance at the coming election.
