New county commissioners here and
there long ago have caucused and de-
cided to Gust wardens and physicians
hither and yon-and generally for no
reason whatever other than that the
incumbents aligned themselves with
losing political factions in the various
localities affected.
The prison commission never has del
egated 70 the county commissioners the
right to elect these officials but it had
come to accept their recommendations
practically without question. When if
became apparent however, that this
right of nomination was being abused,
the commission sharply withdrew il.
There will be some wailing and
guashing of teeth, of course-but the
prison commission says it will stand
pat from now on, on its own right to
name the county physicians and war
