ance among any of the Democrats against Senator

some neishborins States which are IN better

order.
The Governor. 1t is plain, is taking especial
pains with the deputyships In various depart
ments. The Republican organization may have
forced upon him H. II. Bender, OF Albany, as
Superintendent Of Public Buildings. but he has
taken precautions against the Department being
continued a political bureau by securing In
advance the appointment Of hts personal friend,
Joseph Murray. as Deputy Superintendent
In like manner Mr.. McMackin's appoint
ment is dictated by politicians but the Governor
evidently seeks TO neutraze the effect Of It by
obtaining in advance Mr. McMackin's promise
that he will appoint Professor Weber, OF Cornell
University. as his chief assistant.
1t was stated to-day that at the Governors de-
sire the bill introduced by Mr.. Kelsey. Of Liv-
ingston County, changing the title OF the private
secretary OF the Governor 10 that OF secretary
to the Governor" and increasing his salary from
81 600 to $4,000, would be dropped. There Is a
kindly feeling In the Legislature toward Colonel
William j. Youngs, the Governors private Sec
rotary but In view Of the expression by the
Governor and the Republican leaders In favor Of
economy 1t was deemed best not to press the
measure The private secretary OF the Governor
Is a most responsible official and unquestionably
some day the salary OF the place. In view Of that
fact will be increased, hut X Governor Roose-
Welt once approved OF the bill he now clearly
considers II unwise.
