REPUBLICANS TO HAVE
CHIFF.Of.POLICE

There Is much conjecture today
among city officials and politicians
generally over the appointments
which will be recommended to the
city council tonight by Mayor l..
Frank Boyd.
The democrats have today thrown
up their hands regarding the holding
Of the Office Of chief Of police, and
1t is now up to Mayor Boyd to make
the grandstand play Of his life and
appoint a good republican. Promi-
nently mentioned for this office to-
day is the name of Mac Pugh, the
present deputy sheriff. Pugh is a
staunch republican. mas the neces-
sary pull and carries with him con-
siderable influence.
In the former proposition Of the
democrats to the republicans they
offered the latter the offices of cor
poration counsel and a member on
the board of public works. Now they
offer the Job of chief of police, but
want to hold the other member of
the board. The matter of the recon-
mendation of the mayor Of the name
of F. M. Dudley for corporation
counsel seems clinched.
II. c. Root is now the stumbling
block and it is his membership on
the board Of public works. with
which the politicians are preparing
to toss into the pot. When the dem
ocrats made the first proposition the
name of John Wetzel was mentioned
for the place, but the latest move
today throws a new light on mat
tiers, and Root may be retained, with
the understanding that he remain
neutral as between democrats and re-
publicans. This leaves Weymouth
the republican representative on the
board and Handley the democratic.
Root is also democrat.
This slate may De subject to an
other change before the meeting of
the council tonight, In case the re-
publicans buck and kick over the
traces on this latest plan.
The name of Leroy C. Waller, dem
ocrat, seemed assured for the ap-
pointment to the office of chief of
police until the new plan today, but
Pugh, being republican, is now in
line to settle things in this respect
