into his room and saluted him thus:

Many Unnecessary.

Numerous unnecessary officers have
been appointed. new departments have
been created. The payrolls OF old de-
partments have been grossly swollen and
extended. and through a thousand chan
nels the golden flow OF the taxpayers
money has been diverted into the pockets
of the oilers and greasers OF the Whit
man machine along the most direct lines
available.
For four years the main effort OF the
Republican Office holders has been to
perpetuate themselves in power, and now
at the close OF his second term We find
the Governor Of the State demanding an
honor which has not been extended to
any o. our Governors, some of them the
greatest among men, for over eighty
years. not for the purpose of serving the
people but as a furtherance Of his as
piratons for the Presidency.
The prohibition question came as
grist to the mill Here. when every en-
ergy Of the Governor and his assistants
should have been devoted to the develop
ment and improvement OF the war meas
ures. we find him interfering with a mat
ter in which he had officially no concern.
A proposed amendment to the Federal
Constitution Is a matter in no degree
within his province. Such approval Is
left with the Legislature. Yet we find
the Governor directing and attempting
to coerce the legislative body into taking
an action on that subject which was in
accord with his ideas OF where there
were the most votes
Despite carping, fault finding. despite
frequent embarrassment from busy
