One of the most Important offices under

Indianian, in the person OF Hon. Robert
the Comptroller of the Treasury, which
was the berth filled by Mr.. Robert Il.
Bowler. of Cincinnati, under the Cleveland
administration. Mr. Bowler resigned some
time ago aud left for Europe with his
family, in June. Since then the duties
of the office have fallen upon the deputy
who held over. This office is one or
absolute power, the Comptroller being the
court OF final resort in all matters that
come up in the Treasury regarding the
legality of any proposed payment from
the public funds.

One of the most noticeable cases of this
kind was the refusal OF Mr.. Bowler TO
allow the sugar bounty provided for In
the Wilson tariff bill. This matter was

some OF the best attorneys in the country
appeared as counsel for the claimants.

permitted to he paid upon Treasury war

MI. Tracewell was being urged for the
place. He is admirably equipped for the
position, being one Of the best lawyers in
his State and man OF the highest stand

time he was elected in the Republican
landslide of the Fifty-fourth Congress, he
had never held a public office. He de-
feated Mr. StOCkslager by narrow margin
OF less than 600 votes.
Mr. TracewelI's selection shows how
