The appointment Of Davis was made
on the recommendation of Senator

the appointment as the appointment Of
George w. Hanson was recommended
by Representative Sutherland for the
position, Senator Kearns had con-
crded that Sutherland should have the
appointment but at the last minute
as he was leaving for Europe he filed
his recommendation for Davis with
out informing Sutherland of his action,
Mr. Sutherland was seen this afternoon
bat refused to discuss the matter. The
appointment Of Mrs. Thiriot at Park
city was Senator Kearns' own selec-
ton. the appointment In his own city
having been conceded to him. II is be-
lieyed that the turning down OF Han
son was a slap at Mr., Sutherland be-
