All these depart- ments promised to co-operate’ In the plan. most cases the term of office of their deputics expired with the resigna- tion of the preceding official, the only deputies they wery at libety to appoint are men already qralified by civil service examinations, and nine of cevery ten of theee are Re- publicans who had Leen holding of- fice for years. So to make it possible to appoint some hard working party Democrats it has been decided to held exami- nations as stated to make up o new elizible list for the offices of deputy collectors, deputy marshals, and similar offices. It is pozsible for the collectors and marshals to appoint whoever they please as temporary deputies, and these men can take the August examinations and qualify for per- manent appointment. There is one exception to the ap- pointments by examinations. Go- ing outside of the ecivil service, President Wilson has authorized the appointment of James D. Calhoun as deputy collector of customs at Tampa. The Senate has confirmed the nom- inations of W, R. Dorman to be post- master at Live Oak, and J. . Hum- phries at Bradentown. This enls a long and unsuccessful fight made by Congressman L’Engle to prevent the appointment of either man, against whom hLe preferred charges which investization proved could not be substantiated.
