NASH GETS FEDERAL JOB

Cottonwood Chronicle: j. V. Nash
for more than a year assistant cashier
of the First National bank of this city
resigned the first of the week to ac-
| eept position with the federal income
| tax unit as an internal revenue in.
spector at salary of $4,000 year.
Mr. Nash about three months ago
took a civil service examination at
Grangeville for internal revenue in
spector and passed with high honors
and since then correspondence has been
going on between the government and
Mr.. Nash relative to the position, the
result of which caused him to resign
as assistant cashier and accept the pro-
position submitted by the government
Mr.. Nash will leave in about two
weeks for Washington, d. c., where he
will take forty-five days of intensive
training to familiarize himself with the
technical details of his new duties
after which he will be placed at some
point unknown to him at this time
where the government will need his
service.
Mr. Nash s new duties will be
checking up large corporations rela-
tive to their income tax.
Johnnie, as he is known to his
friends, and he numbers them in fig
ures as large as any man in the
county, has been resident of Cotton
wood and Idaho county for the last
twenty-seven years and during this
time has held numerous public posi-
tions, much to his credit. For four
years he was county assessor and for
almost the same number of years he
was postmaster of Cottonwood. He
also was engaged for number of
years in the mercantile business here,
being associated with Goldstone, Nash
& Creelman.
Owing to the fact that they are
unaware at this time where they will
be located in the future the Washes
are disposing of their household goods
and while it is the desire of Mr.. Nash
to locate somewhere in the west, the
government is just as apt to send him
to Florida or to the Philippine islands.
w. w. Flint, cashier of the First
National bank, in statement given
out said that they greatly regretted !
to see Mr.. Nash resign but wished him
success in his new undertaking. He
also said that the vacancy at this time
had not been filed but that they had |
a man with banking experience under
for the vacancy.
