Democrats Quarrel Over
Spells; g. O. P. in Platform
Tangle in Massachusetts

BOSTON, Oct 4.-The question OF
the distribution of Federal patronage
threatened to become a disturbing
factor in the Democratic State con-
vention in Faneuil Hall today When
the committee on resolutions drew up
it's report several members favored
the inclusion of a resolution calling
on the President to consult with the
State leaders of the party in refer
ence to appointments in Masachu-
sets.
This was understood to have refer
ence to the reported decision of
President Wilson to appoint as col
lector of the port of Boston man not
Endorsed by the party.
BOSTON, Oct. A contest over
the question of an immigration plank
between the committee on resolutions
and the party nominee for Governor,
Congressman Augustus 2. Gardner,
was one feature of the Republican
State convention In fremont Temple
today
Congressman Gardner favored a
direct declaration in favor of re-
striction.
Since candidates for State offices
have been nominated by direct pri-
maries the only function remaining to
the convention was the adoption of a
platform.

he would get in trouble II he did not
come.
Prosecutor Louis Hood and his hfst
assistant, Wilbur A. Mott, should ana
do make great pair of officials Tor
that office, and there are very rev
criminals that come to trial that nave
chance of covering up their previous
records IL they have ever had any
thing to do with the prosecuting Of
ficials in this county before.
The reason for that Is simply this:
Back of the two men, Messrs. Hood
and Mott, lies more than twenty
three years of solid experience in the
Essex county prosecutors office. one
or the other of the two men has been
in the office at all times since the
very early 90s.
Mr.. Hood put In fifteen straight
years in the office as first assistant
prosecutor, serving as such under the
late Elvin w. Crane for two terms OF
five years each and under Chandler
w. Riker for one term of five years.
Then Mr.. Hood retired from the
prosecutors office, but as he retired
Mr. Mott stepped in as first assistant
to the late Henry Young, and served
about two years as such when, on the
death of Mr.. Young, he was appointed
prosecutor for the full term of five
years, giving him more than nine
years as prosecutor and assistant.
With the appointment of Mr.. Hood
as prosecutor last spring Mr.. Mott
again became first assistant, being
now in his tenth year of service In
the Office either as head of 1t or first
assistant.
While on the subject of the prose-
cutors office it might just as we'll be
stated that new second assistant
prosecutor will be appointed by Pros
ecutor Hood II the near future.
When he took hold of the office,
Second Assistant Prosecutor Andrew
Van Blarcom wished to retire at
once to devote his entire time to his
private practice. He was prevailed
upon to remain with the understand
ing that his successor would be
named when the courts opened for
the fall term.
When the fall term opened Mr.. Van
Blarcom was on the job the same
as usual and continues to be, al
though 1t is admittedly only a short
length of time as to when he will
be succeeded by new man. When
Prosecutor Hood is asked who the
new dppOlIllcG Will DC dllu WlitI lAiS
appointment is to be made the ia
nous Hood smile and shrug of the
shoulders come into play and be
says, II don't know who it will be
or when the appointment will be
made"
But it is one safe bet that the ap-
pointment will be made in the very
near future, but when it comes to
picking out who will be the lucky
man all the Court House dopesters
are away up in the air and no one
seems to have the remotest kind OF
an idea who the appointee will be.
Mr.. Hood of course, probably
knows, but he will not give it out
until he gets good and ready and
there is no use in trying to find out
from him in advance. If you want
to get good idea of the impossible
thing just try to get information out
of Prosecutor Hood when he does
not want to give the aforesaid infor-
nation out.
The Sphinx in it's wilderness of sand
is as noisy and laxative as a sew
ing circle at an old woman's home in
| comparison with Mr.. Hood when in
formation that he is not ready to
! give out is sought.
