Jenkins, COlleClOT Sdio
lima internal revenue district, until its
consolidation with the eastern district
of North Carolina a few days ago, has
accepted the position Of deputy, In
charge Of this district, with Charles
ton, as his headquarters. Collector
Wheeler Martin Of the North Carolina
district, endeavored to place as many
of the officials of the merged district
as possible and Major Jenkins decided
to accept the tender Of the position at
Charleston, and here he will take up
his work and residence. He was ac-
companied to Charleston by his fam
lily. Major Jenkins succeeds U. b.
Hammett, who Is retained In the ser
vice and agreeable to his wishes, will
have Rarnwell, which is his home, as
his headquarters. Deputy Fouche Will
remain in the service with his head
quarters at Columbia. There will be a
redivision of the counties, apportioned
to the several deputies and Major
Jenkins was unable today to say just
what counties he will look after AS
to the other positions in the district,
now made part Of Mr.. Martins juris-
diction, the stamp office at Greenville
has been continued, and the official In
charge retained. Robert F. jenkins,
brother Of Major Jenkins, who was
the chief clerk Of the South Carolina
office, has been appointed stamp clerk
at Columbia. All the officials and
clerks were offered similar positions,
or as nearly as good positions under
the consolidated departments and
while some Of the clerks have found 1t
impossible to leave Columbia and take
up their residence at Raleigh, others
will do so. Major Jenkins spoke very
apnrecia tiyely of the consideration
which Mr.. Martin has shown. He said
Mr.. Martin was as considerate as he
could possibly have been and the way
that he went about 1t was especially
pleasant. Personally he appreciates
what Mr.. Martin has done for himself
and for every official and clerk who
had served in the district when he was
its collector and he knows that he
voices the appreciation Of his former
subordinates in making this statement
Of Mr.. Martins kindly consideration.

When Informed that Republican

islature by your correspondent, the

Republican majority in the legisla-

Ii LEGISLATURE OF STATE
is SAFELY REPUBLICAN
DE FEAT
OF Watson Saves the Federal
Senate for the Republi-
can Party. NJ

WASHINGTON, Nov. THAT the
Democratic party would control the
United States Senate became almost
certainty until late Wednesday
night when the loss OF West vir-
ginia stood in the way OF success.
OF the nineteen seats held by Re-
publicans which were at stake in the
election it became necessary for the
Democrats TO elect six to secure a
majority in the state, providing they
we're able at the same time to retain
possession of their own.
Returns up to Wednesday night
gave them the following in Repuhlt-
can strongholds:
Two in Colorado, where John F.
shaEroth. CD, for the full term and
C S. Thomas, Cd, for the short term
will be elected by Democratic legis-
lature.
One in Montana, where Republicans
and Progressives conceded the cleo
ton of 7. j. Walsh (D).
One in Kansas where w. R. Stubs
(R), conceded the election of his OPP
ponent, William H. Thompson. CD.
One in Delaware, Democratic
legislature assuring the return of
Democrat to succeed Richardson (R),
retired
One in New Jersey, where William
Hughes Cd, will succeed Briggs
The uncertainty as to West yiS-,
ginia indicated in earlier reportss.
seemed apparently the only obstacle
to Democratic majority. Definite
returns are still lacking from Oregon.
Wyoming. Tennessee, New Hamp-
shire, Illinois. Iowa and South Da-
kota. Late figures from Nevada In
dictate that Pittman Cd, is leading
and is probably elected.
