President w. H. Taft last Friday
nominated Charles s. Henderson of
Butte as U. S. marshal to succeed A.
w. Merriield, whose term expired in
December last. Senator Carter says of
the nomination that Henderson was
recommended by large number of the
members of the Republican county and
tate committees and many prominent
citizens of the state. Senator Carter's
oleagues, Dixon and Pray, did not join
recommending Henderson, and it is
believed that Dixon, who will not dis

he senate from acting on the nomina-
tion, but the president may reappoint
Henderson Immediately after adjourn
