HAS HAD ENv|ABLE REPUTATION
Kenosha Man Who Served Long in Fed
eral Service Won His Spurs in Import
ant Cases and Has Been Considered a
Painstaking. Careful Official.


Charles B. Reinardy, who for the past
FIVE years has been Chief Deputy United
States Marshal of the Eastern District
of Wisconsin is getseng ready to sur
render his star and his Office as with the
appointment of former State Senator s.
w. Randolph Of ManitoWoc to succeed
H. A. Wiel of Milwaukee in the office
of the United States Marshal in Mil
waukee it is pretty certain that the Re
publicans who have held office under
the outgoing official will be forced to
walk the plank and make way for some
Democrat who is waiting for the office.
1t is declared that Marshal Randolph
will be in the Office by the first of Au-
gust and he will have the naming of
his chief deputy and two other deputies.
Mr.. Reinardy has not expected any fav-
ors from the administration and he has
been getting ready to yacate his office.
Until the present administration came
into power the Office of chief deputy
was under the civil service but this has
all been changed and the Office of chief
deputy marshal is one of the political
plums belonging to the administration.
AS Mr.. Reinhardy has held this office
for considerable time the appointment
has been considered one for Kenosha
county and it has been one of the few
federal appointments handed out in this
section. It is possible that Senator
Husting has an understanding with the
new marshal that Kenosha county shall
continue to be favored and Kenosha
man may be named to succeed Reinardy.
There is no doubt but that there will
be plenty of Democrats in Kenosha who
would be willing to accept the position.
The only name mentioned in connection
with the Office is that Of John Langan.
Mr.. Langan was early in the year sug-
gested as a possible candidate for the
place which has been given to Senator
Randolph and it is not known whether
or not he would accept the place of
chief deputy.
It can be said of the retiring chief
deputy that Kenosha county furnished
to the government one of the best men
ever placed in charge of the work in
the marshal s office. Chief Deputy Rein
ardy has been real power in the feder-
al court and Kenosha people who have
had occasion to do business in the court
have feeling Of gratitude toward the
retiring deputy for the many favors
which he has shown to them. Mr.. Rein
ardy was always solicitious for the
9 home folks and he was always ex-
|ceedingly courteous and obliging.
His record in Office has been one of
which he may be proud, Covering a
long period of years he has been con-
sidered one of the best men that Wis
consin has had in this office. He has
been connected with many famous cases
IN the eastern district and has shown
great intelligence in handling the duties
of his office. One Of his last ASSIGN
ments was to see that Rev. James Nor
rison Darnell got safely to the Federal
prison at Ft. Leavenworth.
1t is said the Mr.. Reinardy mas not
made any plans for the future. After
he gives up his work in the federal Of
fees in Milwaukee he will take LONG
rest after which it is expected that he
will go into some other line Of work. It
is possible that he will be factor in
the next political campaign as he has
always been active in politics and has
had the support of some of the real
leaders in the political life of Wisconsin
for more than ten years.
Senator Randolph will have the nam.
ing OF the successor to Mr.. Reinardy
and if any Kenosha man is to get this
position he will have to make arrange
ments with the senator.
