MACKEY DOOMED FOR
DISTRICT ATTORNEY
Washington and Virginia Lawyer Is
Strong Candidate for Successor
to Clarence r. Wilson.
JUDcsHIP IS STILL IN DOUBT

crandal Mackey, Washington and
Virginia lawyer. has doomed up as a
strong candidate for the local United
States attorneyship. He Is said to have
the backing OF a large part Of the Vir-
ginia delegation in Congress.
Mr.. Mackey has been prosecuting at
torney for Fairfax County for many
years and enjoys a large practice in the
District There Is some opposition to
his candidacy, owing. II is said, to his
campaign against the gambling machine
at jackson City, Va, about ten years
ago. He has some influential friends
who are very close to President Wilson
Senators swanson and Martin. Of Vir-
ginia, have not yet indorsed him, but IL
is predicted they will not interfere.
The custer verdict against Commission
er Newman threatens to keep the District
Supreme Court judgship In doubt indefi-
nitely. The President Is stiIl anxious to
name Commissioner Siddons for the place.
but is said to be loath to let both civil
Commissioners go.
James A. Ross. a colored editor OF
Buffalo and Detroit, was presented to
the President yesterday by Representa-
tive Smith. Of Buffalo, as a candidate
for the Office OF recorder Of deeds.
Racial feeling which has arisen from
the talk OF appointing another colored
man TO the place caused the Rev. L. c,
Moore. president Of the National Negro
Democratic League, to protest against
the appointment OF a colored man to the
recorders ONCE. He urged the President
yesterday TO name white man for the
place.
Representative Smith, Of Maryland.
and W. l.. Narbury. a Baltimore attorney.
called on the President and urged him
to appoint a Marylander to the ofice.
The President told them he had PROM
ised to appoint only colored men 10

more about Internal Republican affairs

ventured a line OF inside information
bearing on the CONGRESSMAN Wilson
ambition to be governor. The explosion
came with relation of the Willis express
sions a few months back IN Washington
against what he called the presumption
OF Foraker in asking the Senatorial nomi-
nation and vindication.
The bounding Willis was reputed to
have exclaimed with emphatic gesture
and excited enunciation that had ne
dreamed Of Foraker going into the
Senatorial running. the Senate rather
than governorship would have been the
Willis choice. The pertinence OF this
rather bombastic proclamation lies in
the fact that IL was proclaimed TO that
smooth past grand master OF politics.
Senator Charles Dick, who resented II
ing a lot about the Ada Normal School
and the early bringing up of his ex-
cited friend.
Anyhow. as the story goes here, the
Dick spirit of making allowances pre-
vented even mild reproof and he has
made no move against the Willis reach
for head Of the ticket.
Others who rejoice that Foraker is at
least to win the Republican nomination,
whatever happens in November, wish
they had not let the governorship go
by default to fervid statesman who,
if elected. will give the party and its
leaders many nervous chills before the
term is ended. Even yet the marked
objection of Willis to Foraker may be
taken up by the Senator's friends aud
the word passed To deal swiftly and
silently on primary day with one who
has dared to lament that he might be
along wits the statesman
from Cincinnati.
