May Oppese Goethals’ Appointment. A fight is being declared against the v industrial commission, the nine rembers of which were appointed a few weeks ago by President Taft. Al- though “senatorial courtesy” would or- | ainarily bring about the speedy con- firmation of Senator Sutherland's ap- | pointment as chairman, demogratic leaders are fighting all the' ap- pointments on the ground that the new | commission’s investigation of indus- trial_conditions will run through two or three years of President Wilson's term. Should President Taft send in the appointment of Colonel George W. Goethals as governor of the FPanama | canal under the new law, it will un- | doubtedly also meet with democratic opposition. Many prominent demo- crats faver the selection of Colonel | Goethals, however, and would work for his confirmation. | n | STONINGTON.
