How CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CASES
Now that Gov Mead has had his
last suck at the orange. he advises
the reduction of State officers and the
taking of appointments away from
the Executive and vesting them in "A
Civil Service Commission. He would
abolish the State Board of Control,
and substitute one officer to take the
place of the three and place that APP
pOintment under evil service rules
whereby it would do away with the
patronage of the Governor office.
Does anybody believe for a moment
that he would have proffered such
advice had he been his own successor
for another term?
