MAHONEY appointment of be United States the Ketchikan should conduct in Juneau. In- Commenting recently upon the William T. Mahoney of that city to for the First Division deftly suggests how he himself during his official residence teresting the Chronicle, said William T. Mahoney's appointment as United States Marshal for the First Division takes another Ketchikan Democrat away from home info the pantheon of Alaska’s political deity. However, as we said weeks ago in | this column, we believe that Bill Mahoney | is too good a Ketchikanite to be weaned | away by the promises of the Triad which | seems to rule our destiny. And, unlike others who have preceded him into the Presence, he will not lose his head to the extent of believing that his temporary home office is the beginning and end of all things We know Bill Mahoney is going to make a good Marshal. He has all the requisites: | education, experience and executive ability. He realizes he is entering a hard job—a job that will require constant and fearless at- tention and intelligent no place for a weakling. The President made a good appointment. We quite agree with all the estimable Ketchikan journal has to say of Mr. Mahoney's qualifica- | tions for his mew job. As it said, “The President has made 2 good appointment.” Words of Power.
