h6nOSna IOSJ IFI6HQ aU court To-
day in the retirement of Charles B.
Reinardy from the Federal building in
Milwaukee where he had served as
chief deputy United States marshal
for the past six years. Samuel w.
Raldoph of Manitowoc, was today
ushered into office as United States
marshal for the eastern district Of
Wisconsin succeeding Harry A. We'll
and one of his first official acts was to
name Albert Walters of Milwaukee as
his chief deputy to succeed Mr.. Rein
ardy. Some of the Kenosha democrats
had hoped that Kenosha man would
be named to succeed Chief Deputy
Reinardy, but Marshal Randolph evil
IDENTIFY had another plan. At the same
time Guy D. Golf, who has been United
States district attorney for the eastern
district and who won high praise for
his work in prosecuting Rev. James
M. Darnell, the Kenosha minister, also
retired from office and Attorney A. III.
Sawyer Of Hartford succeeded him.
Deputy Reinardy, who is declared by
the Milwaukee court officials to have
been the most efficient man ever en-
ployed in the office Of the United
States marshal, made no announcement
Of his plans for the future as he retired
this afternoon. He is expected to re-
turn to his home in Kenesha and it is
intimated that he may be active in Ke-
nosha politics during the coming cam
paign.
Politics has been good to the retir-
ing deputy and he has held political
offices for more than half a score Of
years and he has made an excellent
record in all of these Offices. However,
his most notable service was rendered
in the Office Of deputy marshal. Mr..
Reinardy first came into political
prominence in the second LaFollette
campaign in the state and he was Gre
dited with being the Kenosha county
manager for the senior senator. His
early connection with the LaFollette
wing Of the party brought him into
direct line for appointment to Office
and he began his work as an office
holder in the position of deputy in
spector of oils in this county. Later
he was advanced to the Office of game
warden. He held this Office for several
years and resigned it to accept an APP
pointment as assistant postmaster of
Kenosha from former Postmaster
John B. Maloney This position he
later resigned to accept a position as
deputy United States marshal and he
was soon afterward advanced to the
position of chief deputy. At this time
the Office of chief deputy was under
the civil service, but the democratic
administration for the good of the
service'' changed this rule and made
the office Of chief deputy again an
appointive position not subject to
civil service requirements.
In his various official capacities Mr..
Reinardy has been very active in
political life in the first district and
in the state and he is credited with
having a personal acquaintance with
more Of the politicians Of the state
and especially those of the so-called
progressive faction than any Kenosha
county republican. He has announced
that he has no plans for the immediate
future, but that he will take a long rest
before going into any kind of work.
