The Governors Appointments.


Great interest has been manifested in
the appointments of Governor Crothers,
and especially those upon the large boards
of Baltimore city, such as the Police
Board, the Liquor License Board and
the Police Examiners. Many other ap-
pointments were important, but none
attracted the attention of the general
public as these.
While it is doubtless true that there
are many disappointments, it must be
admitted by all fair-minded persons that
the Governor has been singularly for
tunate in selecting excellent men for
these positions. He has shown good
Judgment, and the people as whole are
satisfied.
The appointing power of the Governor
places upon him the most troublesome
part of his duties. There are always
numbers of persons for each office. All
may be worthy from every standpoint,
but only one can be selected, and hence
the delicate duty imposed upon the Gov
ernor of making a selection. We have
never regarded the patronage of the
Governor as an element of strength, but
rather the contrary. Men are apt to
feel fretted and worried when they fail
to receive an appointment which they
desired, and for which they have been
working.
They should remember, however, that
it is no reflection upon their character
or fitness, but simply that dozen men
cannot be appointed to the same Office
at the same time, and that the law lays
upon the Governor the duty of making a
selection.
We think Governor Crothers is to be
commended for the sound Judgment he
has exercised in the general plan Of his
appointments.

Governor Crothers has sent letter to
the various heads of the state departments
notifying them not to enter into any con-
tracts for leasing quarters for offices until
they have conferred with him. The
Governors idea is to have all the state
officers under one roof, believing that it
will not only be great convenience to
the public but will result in material
saving to the State in rental.
