GOV. Clough yesterday signed the
nrst batch of appointments for 1896.
ne fortunate citizens who viii receive
tHeir ceruncates of appointment by the
HIst messenger are as follows:
years. IoF three
Ira b.. Mills. Moorhead. member Of fbs
ooard OF railroad and warehouse commits
si0heTs, three years
j. u. Pyle, 81. Paul, director of the state
institute for detectives, five years.

BOARD OF managers OF tn state prison - '"'
1hese are reappointnents. There are
number of other appointments to he
made ultimately. and the governor fs
very BUSY, as we'll as being beset by
numbers of eager politicians who want
places Tor themselves or their friends.
one position for which there is a live
~ contest is that of member of the
state game and fish commission, to sue
ceed Al. f. Ferris, of Brainerd. N. III.
IngersoH, a newspaper man Of the
same place, is candidate for the
place, and st. Cloud also has a candi-
date, both being on the assumption
that that congressional district is en-
titled to a place. Minneapolis also
mas a candidate in the person of the
father of John Goodnow, and Frank
Z. Davis and Henry Giertsen. of Min
neapolis, were in the governors room
yesterday to urge the appointment Of
still another Minneapolitan. Mr.. Davis
IS prominent figure in the recently
organized association for the protec-
ton Of game and fish, ard while his
visit to the governor had no political
significance" the general opinion about
the capitol is that one or the other Of
the Minneapolis claimants will be ap-
pointed.
The governor was also visited yes
terday by a large delegation Of mem
bers Of the Order of Railway Conduc-
tors, headed by Chief Conductor ]. D.
Condit, Of the st. Paul division, for
many years in the Omaha service, but
now travelling passenger agent They
were there to urge the appointment of
a well-known railroad man to the po-
sition Of factory inspector. The ap-
pointment will probably not be made
for a few days, as there were q host
of applicants for various positions In
the labor bureau, and a careful inves-
tigation of the applicants is being
made.
DOES 1T APPLY TO FURLONG?
An appointment that was not In yes
terday's budget, it will be observed,
was that to membership in the board
OF managers of the state agricultural
society to succeed Hon. John J. Fur
long. 1t is generally understood that
Mr.. Furlong is a candidate for re-
election, and there Is question as to
whether his membership in the legfS-
lature at the same time that he is a
member of the board brings him with
in the scope of the supreme court de-
cision In the case of State Boiler In
spector Sutton. 1t seems likely that
this appointment will be withheld for
a time in order that the governor may
secure the opinion of Attorney General
Childs as to the extent of the prohibit
ton as applied to the indirect and UNI
salaried officers Of the state.
Another of the governors callers
yesterday was Hon Daniel Shell, of
Worthington. who, besids3 being o
member of the legislature, is a mer2-
Der of the state capitol commits
sion. Mr.. Shell does not want TO re-
linquish his legislative position, and
he would also like to retain the place
on the capitol commission, but he does
not want to enbarrass the governor in
making his appointments. 1t Is more
than probable that the governor will
within a day or two ask Attorney Cen
eral Childs for an opinion as to the
cases of the legislators who are also
members Of similar commissions,
which will settle all the cases at once.
This does not apply to Regent Yale,
of the university, who will not be re-
appointed.
