TAFT GETS BACK
 AT BULL M00SfRS Removes Marshals in Texas Because They Supported Col. Roosevelt
AIDED CECIL L Y ON
Mrs, Helen D. LOngstreri, Georgia POstmiStresS, Also DepOSc9 at
 Gainesville, Georgia

Washing ton, Nov. 30.-D. 5. Lyon and Eugene Nolte. United States mar shals for the eastern and western dis- tricts of Texas, were SummarllE re- moved by President Taft today. Both are friends alhl partisans of Col. Cecil Lyon, bosom friend and SUI porter of Col. Roosevelt. Both worked with Lyon in his unsuccessful efforts to deliver the Texas delegation to Roosevelt at the Chicago convention.
 It is generally believed that the throwing out of Lyon and Nolte IS merely the beginning of series of reprisals that the president has plan ned. In many states where Republl- can office holders were naturally eX- pected to do the right thing along before convention time, they were found working under the Bull Moose banner. Such of these as came back into the fold at election time were forgiven but many kept on working for Roosevelt after he had been nom~ mated.
 These are the ones who are now in peril of presidential wrath to come and their friends in Washington are making anxious inquiries about their fate.
 Lyon and Nolte were succeeded by Bert J. Mcdowell and Phil E. Baer, loth\ Taft delegates frasn- Texas at Chicago.
 Woman Also Removed Atlanta, Ga, Nov 30.-Mrs Helen F.. Longstreet, widow of the famous 1 Confederate general, will oe removed 1 bv President Taft as postmistress at Gainesville because of her activity in support of Theodore Roosevelt and shA Will be succeeded by James B. Gaston, who is a member of the reg ular organization. Mrs. Longstreet will be removed on the charge of "pernicious political activity in of- fice.''
 Mrs. Longstreet occupied seat on the stage at the Auditorium as Roose- velt's guest of honor, when he last spoke in Atlanta, and was an "ccred- ited delegate to the Roosevelt con- vention at Chicago.
 Republican leaders say President Taft has delayed action because of Mrs. Longstreet's sex. She married Gen. Longstreet after the death of his first wife and has long held the Gainesville office Gen. LOngstreet joined the Republican party soon af- ter the war and held places unGer the administration of Grant and other Re- publican presidents.
