he had lived in the open. as they. Mr..

WILSON CONSIDERS
DISTRICT OFFICERS
Takes Up Heap Of Letters With
Aim of Choosing Best Men
as Commissioners.

Selection OF two District Commis-
sioners to succeed Commissioners Ru-
dolph and General Johnston, whose
terms of office expired several weeks
ago. now is commanding the attention
Of President Wilson.
President Wilson has not yet made
any selection fo- the Commissionerships,
tentative or otherwise.
In the Executive Offices is a small
mountain of correspondence and data
relating to eligible candidates and resi-
dents of the District of Columbia best
qualified for the position. and this is be-
ing gone through thoroughly by the
President with a view Of selecting for
the two positions the best men possible.
Applicants and their friends will not
get an opportunity to lay their qualifica-
the latter desires 1t. The order of
March 5 that no office seeker will be
granted admittance to the Executive
Offices except on invitation. will apply
in the case Of the Commi missionerships
as well as other vacancies Of the Dis
trict and Federal governments.
Two occurrences OF the last week have
brought new influences to bear on the
Commissionership struggle. The failure
Of the police to protect the suffrage
parade gave the new President q highly
graphic notion Of the responsibility that
rests on District officials.
His appointment yesterday Of Charles
P. Neill as Labor Commissioner, who
was first appointed by Colonel Roose-
welt and afterward reappointed by Mr..
Taft, has tended to cause small chills
run up and down the backs of those
Democrats who believe that simply be-
cause they are Democrats they stand
better chance Of appointment than
any one else.
