.HAUGHEY ON WAR PATH.
The Fish Commissioner Turned
Down by Governor Bailey.

Governor Bailey has turned down
John W. Haughey of Wellington for
reappointment as state fish warden. and
Haug'hey is on the war path He has
he is lining up his friends to stop the
confirmation by the senate of any body
else for the job. The place pays a
salary of $1,000 q. year.
There are a half dozen applicants for
the place. Haughey was appointed by
Governor Stanley last April to succeed
I George w. Wiley, and Wiley got mad
at Stanley for turning him out Now
it is Haughey's place. Haugney ac-
cuses Governor Bailey Of ingratitude
and the other things which disap-
pointed man usually alleges when he
gets turned down and doesn't take his
medicine.
No appointment has yet been made
for the place and it is not known when
one viii be made. Haughey did not
/ know till last night that he would not
/ be reappOinted, but he got it direct
from Governor Bailey and now he is
making all sorts Of trouble, orattempt-
ing it.
Governor Bailey does not say that
official but he says Sumner county has
other official patronage and he cannot
bunch all OF it.
L cannot reappoint all of the pres
ent office holders, Governor Bailey
said today L Rave been doing that so
far, but there are others who are en-
titled to recognition. Some of the good
things ought to be passed around
Sumner county has other patronage
and it isn't fair to bunch it too much.
/ Mr. Haughey has doubtless made
good official and he has been a friend
of mine, but 50 have dozens of others,
/ and some of the other applicants would
! doubtless do just as we'll as Haughey
in this position
In giving his side of the story today
Mr.. Haughey said:
