Now Congressman Warburton
is in the game. He has wired I'd
McCredie that he would like I'd
name the man himself, and says
he will name either T. V. Cope

Taylor, another printer, for the
job. Warburton takes this plan
to pay labor for supporting him in
the last contest.
McCredie personally would like
to appoint A. B. Taylor of the
city attorneys office. He is a
personal friend and has shown
himself competent. He was once
deputy city treasurer.
But certain would-be local po-
litical bosses don't want Taylor,

himself and please the bosses and
please the people, and he is up
against it hard.
