PLENTY MOUTHS OPEN FOR POLITICAL
 PLUMS

One of the northern Arizona news papers thus speculates on the proba- bilities of who will fill the federal and other positions in Arizona made avail able here by the recent republican landslide:
 When Harding becomes president next March there will be a lot of office-hungry republicans in Arizona seeking to be recognized as "deserv- ing" republicans. There are not very many appointive offices to be handed out, and it is quite likely the distri | button will not be accomplished with | out both disappointment and bitter ness. The advice of Ralph Cameron will be the determining factor in making the appointments, and he does not think very much of the men who followed Roosevelt in 1912, so it may be conceded that the old line party men will have the advantage.
 Wants to Be Diplomat
 Albert M. Sames, chairman of the republican state central committee. wants to be minister to some foreign country, and it is probable that he will put in a bid for the post in Siam, at present held by former Governor
 
 Nogales Herald, lives on the border and it is safe to assume he will make a bid for the place as collector of GUS toms for the Arizona district, the headquarters of which are at Nogales. Sisk would make a guood man for the place, and his, work for the party en- titles him to serious consideration. Here is hoping Sisk is succeful in landing the plum.
 Will Clean House
 ''The two democrats will have to be removed from the United States land office at Phoenix to make way for two republicans. H. H. Heiner. pub fisher of the Arizona-Blade Tribune at Florence and the Superior Sur at Superior, will be made register of the office. He has been a constant Cameron, man longer than anyone else in the state, and should Cameron fail to keep faith with MT. Heiner he will reveal himself as very faithless fol lower of his word. It is not known who will be named as receiver of the land office, but the Impression pre- vails to Phoenix that it will go to Col James McClintock at present state historian
 woRemaining PIurs ''The two remaining plums are the United States marshalship and the | United State district attorneyship. It is understood there are number of willing men under consideration for the. marshalship. NJ. F. Cassidy Of Bisbee Colonel F. s. Breen of Flag staff, Andrew Baumert. IT. of Phoe- nix. w. D. Hubbell of Douglas and Lorenzo Wright of Benson are con- ceded to be about neck and neck in the race for the marshalsbip. ! Word from Phoenix is that there will he quite a flock of applicants to pick from in selecting United States attorney Dunseath, recently beaten by Carl Hayden: F1annigan, who lost ont in his race for the state supreme bench. A. A. Jaynes of Casa Grande Neil Clark of Prescott. David Ben shimol of Douglas, Otis J. Baughn of Florence and number of Phoenix attorneys have received favorable mention.
 Tt is expected congress next year will provide an additional federal iudgeship for Arizona. and that will be position about which quite a storm will be waged. F. S Clark of this city would be the logical man for the job, but whether Cameron would favor him is problemat;cal: though MT Clark became a consistent sup porter Of Cameron during the cam. paign Richard E. Sloan of Phoenix J H. Campbell of Tucson, Otis J Baughn of Florence and lot of others would make a supreme effort to get the lifetime position on the federal bench.
 The republicans in deaI,ng out pat ronage in Arizona will have Q bie job. It likely will develop factional ' fight with Ralph Cameron on one side and the former progressives under same leader on the other About al the democrats can say is: '1sh ka bibble"
