Chairman Of the Police Board
Succeeds Himself.
TERM EXPIRED JUNE 80
Mayor Jones Decided to Withhold
Appointment In Order That Ne"
Council Might Pass Upon It
Mounted Patrolmen Proposition.

Henry u. Holmes has been reap
pointed by Mayor Marquis Jones as
a member OF the board OF police com
missioners for term OF three years
and the appointment is now in the
hands of City Clerk Floyd Hudgins-
u is expected that Or. Frank Il. Lon
gan. president of the board OF alder
men, will call joint meeting Of the
two branches of the city council IN
the near future TO act upon the ap-
pointment.
Mr.. Holmes term of office expired
on June 30. but ne holds over until
his successor is named. Mayor Jones
said yesterday that he did not make
the appointment Immediately after
the expiration of the term because
he thought ii was only right that the
new city council should act upon the
appointment.
Doesn't Come As Surprise.
With the election OF the city Off
GERS and the going into office of the
new councilmen, the fact of the ex-
Iiration of the term of one OF the
mcmbers of the police board was
overlooked by nearly everybody and
as he wanted the appointment to go
10 the new council Mayor Jones dill
rot agitate the matter. The reap
lointment of Mr.. Holmes does not
come as a surprise and II is gener-
ally believed that he will be confirm
ed by the city council.
Mr.. Holmes has been a member OF
the police board for a little more than
six years and If his aIs continent is
confirmed this time he will have
t-een thrice appointed to this office.
He was first named by Mayor Samuel
r. Buxton in 1894 and was reap
pointed in 1907 by Mayor Buxton.
Soon after he became member OF
the police board, Mr.. Holmes was
elected as chairman of the body and
he has held that Office ever since.
As soon as the council confirms his
appointment, the commissioners will
reorganize for three years by electing
q chairman and secretary. DR..
Samuel W. Hobson is the present sec
rotary of the board.
As to Mounted Police.
sioners will soon take up with the
new council the matter of mounted
police.
A resolution giving the board au-
thority to mount some OF the officers
provided the board kept within the
appropriation made by the council for
the police department was introduced
In the old council, but ~lied with il
last month and the matter will have
to be reintroduced.
