Judge Carl Smith, as president of the
Club, Second Precinct, +
first District G1ilo), sent a recon-
nendation, backed by a petition, for
he appointment of Albert Horner as
Ir. Gibbs successor. A peculiar feat
re of Judge Smiths recommendation
5, that there is nowhere on file in the
republican headquarters any notifica-
ion that such a club has ever been in
ficiar existence. During the last cam
align reports as to the organization of

ltention of Secretary Avery to prompt

nat no embarrassment will result in
Iture transactions.
