IRVING E. vernon
NAMED FOR BANK
COMMISSIONER

Governor Curtis nominated for the
office of bank commissioner. Friday
Irving r. Vernon of Portland. If con-
frIned by the Cour>. he will succeed
Harry NJ Smith of Bangor the present
encumbent of the office. The salary Of
the office is $500 per annum and the
commissioner has the authority TO ap-
point his own deputy
Irving e. Vernon is an attorney and
has been an active Progressive. He was
during the 1914 gubernatOrial cam
paiSn and is at the present time, chair
man of the Progressive State commit
tee.
1t is said that Mr.. Vernon had the
practically unanimous recommendation
of the Progressives of Maine and it is
known that the Progressives in the
Legislature circulated a petition to the
Governor asking for his appointment
to this office. Apparently he lacked tho
unanimous support Of the Democrats
of Maine, for the corridors resounded
Friday morning with Democratic
growls of disapproval of the nomina-
ton.
The nomination of. Mr.. Vernon for
spoken of in many quarters as part of
the pirce paid the Progressives by the
Democrats for their aid in the Joint
convention. The action of the Pro-
sressives at that time gave to the
Democrats the election of the secre-
tary of State and the seven members
of the governors council. 1t has been
thought that the Offices Of State Ii
brarian and bank commissioner would
be given to PrOgressives in return for
this aid. The nomination of Mr. yeIA
non would seem to bear out the proph-
estes that have been made in this
connection. The nomination also JUS
tifies the Progressive campaign of
1914, for already by the grace of De-
mocracy, the campaign has resulted
in the nomination of the State chair
man to a State Office.
Yet many of the members Of the
Legislature are wondering what at
feet the nomination, which is so bold
a departure from usual practices Of
party patronage, will have upon Pro-
gressives throughout the State when
they have it brought to their atten-
ton. One Of the tenents of Progress
sive doctrine has been political action
free from petty political games su:h
as trading Of influence. and loan OF
voting power in one way or another
whether a political trade was made
by certain Of the Progressives during
the convention or not, it appears that
there was and the nomination. if not
4 tacit acknowledgement Of the trade,
is pronounced to be at least indis
Greet in view of the circumstances.

rill, Progressive, left his seat in
the convention allowing the Demo-
Gratis to elect their nominees because
Of his absence, Irving E. Vernon was

very active in the corridors and when
the question as to DIR. Libby's wherc-
abouts was asked, it was said that
he was in one OF the corridors in con-
versation with Mr.. Vernon. Circum-
stantial review of the convention prob
ably does not, therefore, convince sin
cere Progressives that no trade was
made.
One Progressive when asked about
the nomination Friday morning said,

Progressive member, however. said
that if there had been any trade he
was not a party to it and knew moth
