GOVERNOR DENNEY's SELECTION

Persons who care little for party
politics. but who do take an interest
in the manner in which public servants
perform their duties. are pleased be-
cause Governor Denney appointed
George j. Baldwin to the office of state
detective.
Every Evening does not know how
many other men were mentioned for
that place; quite number. though. no
doubt several applicants were pushed
forward by their friends because Of
their political affiliations. But it IS
known that Baldwin was recommended
to the governor for one reason only
because he is an efficient man, who
knows his work, and performs it sat
/ isfactorily.
Governor Denney appointed Baldwin
solely on his merit This means the
elimination of politics from an import
ant State Office. The governor is 10
be commended for the able selection
which he made; Attorney-General
Townsend is to be congratulated be
cause he has an efficient aide who will
perform his duties efficiently.

Washington, May Is. - Tn
Harding How are you?" bids fair
to outrival even the famous Roose-
veltian "Dee-lighted," both in
point OF service and heartiness Of
utterance.
During the first weeks OF tnS
new administration 1t has been
conservatively estimated at the
White House executive offices that
more than 5000 people have
grasped President Hardlng's hand
in response to this greeting, This
estimate applies only to numbers
received by the president during
the half-hour that he devotes
three times a week to public re-
ception" and takes no account of
the hundreds that have seen Mr..
Harding by scheduled appoint
ment.
The public receptions are ar
ranged for 1890 p. m. on Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays.
President Harding, however, has
not yet learned the knack Of
keeping his engagements up to
their schedule, and rarely does the
line start moving toward his Of
flee before 1880. The people be-
gin to arrive at the executive Of
fices about IL o'clock, and it is not
an unusual sight to see a line Of
well-wishers massed from the
doors of the offices nearly out to
