Gov. Odell stopped over In New York yes
terday from Ed Healy's dinner Of the
night before long enough to probe the
real situation among the Republicans of
Kings county. When he left town the other
day and returned to Albany it was with the
underst anding that he WAS to appoint
Jacob Worth a Railroad Commissioner
either in the place of Col. George w. Dunn
OF Binghamton or Frank NJ Baker OF
Owego.
1t did not Cater which to the Governor
so long as Jacob Worth got place as rail-
road commissioner, giving the Governor.
with the vote Of Capt. Joseph NJ. Dickey.
control of the commission.
Nothing has 80 stirred the Kings county
Republicans as the announcement that
Gov. Odell intended to make this appoint
ment. In addition to this some Of Mr..
Worth's friends have been doing what
was described as snosing" around Brooklyn
to ascertain just what could be done in
the way Of upsetting Timothy L. Woodruff
and his friends.
1t has been known all along that Mr.
Worth himself did not feel that at his time
of life he should be asked to reform and
reorganize" the Kings county Republicans
after the methods that Gov. Odell exercised
in the New York county committee. but u
Mr.. Worth could get the powerful place Of
Railroad Commissioner, good many things
might be done.
Gov. Odell ascertained yesterday morn
ing that Mr. Woodruff and his friends
would not tolerate Mr.. Worth's appoint
ment. and that they would fight conflrma-
for the reason that they believe 1t would
be the entering wedge to disrupt the Kings
county Republican machine as at present
managed.
One Of the most interesting bits of infor-
aaf %son that be%eeo eoy ods got wos that and a
Michael J. Dady have been patched up.
Col. Dady had been little bit offish with
Mr.. Woodruff for q number Of months.
Col. Dadys friends believed that Mr. Wood
ruff might have been little more strenuous
Dady as Brooklyn's 3 member of the Election
Board.
Col. Dady's friends for a number Of
months have advised him to get into har-
ness and fight Mr.. Woodruff for the con-
uOi Ot tIe hluSs County iudSibhc, puI
with Gov. Odeil sending for ten OF the
twenty -one leaders OF Kings county to go
to Albany. Mr.. Woodruff and MI. Dady
found it most agreeable and very COM
Portable to get together, and now the har-
mony is so thick between them and their
followers that you couldn't cut it with
g,Illotine.
Gov. Odell, however. has ascerteined
that Kings county Republicans would like
a little legislation at Albany this winter
of more or less important character, and
some OF his friends. understanding this
to be the situation have advised him to go
ahead and appoint Mr.. Worth, believing
that the Kings county Republicans will
accept Mr. Worth rather than lose the legis-
lation Gov. Odell can kill. =
So, up to the Governors going to Wash
ington yesterday morning It seemed sort
of armed neutrality between himself and
Mr.. Woodruff and Mr.. Dady. But Mr..
Woodrnn's and Mr.; Dady's friends said
last night that they would forego any legis-
lation until future time rather than accept
Mr.. Worth as railroad commissioner.
