S1L4S DrTCHER FOR CHAIRMAN.
HE is LIKELY TO BE THE HEAD OF THE
REPUBLICAN COUNTY COMMITTEE.

Unless all signs fail Silas p. butcher will be the
next chairman of the Republican County Com
mittee The Republican leaders In the city who
seeking TO restore harmony between the Old
factions have for a couple Of weeks been searching
through the parys rolls for man who could be
unanimously agreed upon satisfactory chair
man. Several names have been under consdera-
ton. but all have been dropped except Mr. Dutch
er's and Mr. butcher has. after considerable
persuasion. agreed 10 accept the place. the contest
is practically closed An effort made TO keep
the selection until after the primaries
held tomorrow night. but 1t leaked out yesterday.
The selection Of Mr.. butcher will be In the nature
Of d surprise. In the past Mr.. butcher has been
more or less independent in his allegiance TO
tain party leaders. but his force and determination
and manifest desire stand for the right has
for him numberlcss friends in both wings OF the
party. II generally supposed that he had
practically retired from active political life and 1t
was no easy matter persuade him come 10 the
front again AS recently Monday he positively
refused 10 take the place. protesting that he could
not give the time TO the work which the office re-
CURED Some one suggested that If he had the
lieved Of much OF the drudgery of the place. and
Mr; butcher finally consented TO accept the Office
II ne received the assurance that the committee
would give him private secretary.
Among the prominent Republicans who have been
under consideraton for the place Charles A.
Moore. Mr.. Moore had received assurances from
receive their support If he would allow the use Of
MS name II was said that Lieutenant-Govern
oouIulI Was especially deSlrOuS or seeing Mr..
Moore In the place. He absolutely refused. how
ever TO allow the OF his name and urged Mr.
butcher 10 take the place. Mr. Moore was one OF
the first to recognize Mr.. butcher as the idea.
chairman.
Mr.. Moore said last night Of Mr. butchers quail
ifications for the Office
Mr.. butcher is eminently fitted in every par
ticular TO take the position. He is a skilled parlia-
mentaran. an energetic worker. and a man OF great
business ability. He is absolutely fair and honest
and has no personal ends TO further He is we'll
acquainted with Republicans throughout the city
and has the entire respect OF all Of them His one
aim as chairman Of the committee would be the
good of the party and the position which he holds
in the rank and file Of the party would give him
an influence which few could WELD. 1t was entirely
out Of the question for me to take the position be-
cause Of my private business interests"
Republicans will be glad to know that Commits
sioner Willis and Sheriff Quilting. leaders OF the
two factions which have been fighting each other
for year or more. will support Mr. butcher.
