Those Appointed Under Democrats Likely to Lose Their Jobs.

Likely to Lose The1r Jobs.
 Since the return of tine republican party to power in the state as a re- suit of the election last Tuesday, dem ocratic office holders whose terms run out in the next year or two are look ing around to see where they. will land. There are many such who were appointed by Governor Baldwin.
 Perhaps a. democrat or two will ind favor and be continued in office. But, ordinarily speaking, the spells belong to the victor, and places will be found for some republicans who were busted when the democrats gained power,
 To begin with, the election of re- publican house and senate and a re- publican governor means that New Haven County Commissioner Jacob D. Walter and probably Commissioner James Geddes, republican candidate for sheriff, defeated by Sheriff Hug, will be given another appointment. As for Commissioner James E. Cloo- nan of New Haven county, who was appointed for a two year term by Governor Baldwin, his continuance in of the republicans on the question whether there should be a representa tion of the minority party on the coun- ty commissions.
 Governor Baldwin believed in mi nority representation in commissions. 7 f16 udiS Stl1Q SO IAlhllJ L111CS anu WASIe he had the chance he very naturally followed that belief by giving demo- crats the job.
 What applies to the New Haven county commissioners applies to- the other counties of the state except, perhaps, in New London county, where, through Bryan F. Mahan's influence, the democrats have regularly elected a man for a long term.
 [, Then there is the job of highway commissioner. The term of Charles J. Bennett, the present Commissioner. expires July 1, 1915. Mir. Bennett, said to have been a republican in politics when named for the job. may be suc- ceeded by some other republican, al- though people generally hope that he will be retained. He has done splen- sdtd work.
 There are whole lot of other jobs to be filled. Naturally interest has a1- ready centered in some circles as to who will be the speaker of the next house and the president pro-tempore of the next senate. Long before elec- ton the story was being told that Frank Healy of Windsor Locks, the man who made most wonderful po- Htical comeback, will be speaker, And the name of Attorney Charles W. Ev- arts, elected senator from the 14th dis trict, is being used in connection with the office of president of the senate.
