trict Attorney Peck and Postmaster
Claude Weaver can make arrange
nicnts for their services IN O,ner
places, their friends should advise
prompt action. They hold good jobs
and there are ambitious republicans
who wish to try them for season.
This also applies to the eastern
district officials and the big post
mas,erships in that section as well.
Perhaps Federal Judge X. l.. Wit
liams may head off the appointmcn
of district attorney for his court,
as he keeps changing that officer
so often the republicans may not
be able to name the right one at the
time the axe was raised. AT LEASE
whoever is holding 1t today can con

Internal revenue Collector Hu-
bert Bolen holds the choice position
in the state, inasmuch as the office
pays IL little more than a $1,000 sal
airy, besides carries with 1t an army
Of employees. When Bolcn was ap-
pointed at. the instance Of Senator
owen, II was q little job with a
smaller salary. Income taxes and
oil currents have made 1t ono of the
important revenue offices within
the states.
Two oklahoma City republicans
j. l.. Dyche and a. =. Alexander,
are mentioned az asp.rants to sue
Cced Bolen. Both are powerfully
backed and both leaders, but in the
mention OF aspirants 1t must always

presence at home, nor is he inclined
to dodge the responsibility. Hold

The big east side appointment
comes through the secretary OF in

Indian commissioner (now Cato
Sells) and the other Indian agents,

l.. G.. Disney of Musk ogee is un
qucstionably slated for the position
at the Muskogee agency TO succeed
Gabe Il. Parker. And Parker's
activities in the last campaign will
cause his hurried departure from
the office. Disney may not succeed
him. Congressman Alice Robertson

tor Harrcld will be interested in tht
person appointed, and 1t is equally
certain that whoever stands highes
with the new secretary Of interior
will control all OF the Indian ap.
