It is presumed that Irwin intended drown- ing in case the wounds inflicted with the razor should not hasten death as -quickly as he desired. Irwin appeared at breakfast this morning in_ his usual cheerful mood, and no reason except sudden despondency over his blindness, sustained by an explosion in a mine some years ago, is assigned for his suicide. His body was found by Head Janitor Warren of the home, who had occasion to go to the bathroom to make some slight repairs. Coroner Mehrmann will hold an inquest. Deceased was a native of Illinois, aged 34 years, and he has a sister residing at Rushville, Ill., to whom he wrote a letter yesterday. About twelve years ago an inmate named Gus Anderson committed sui- cide by hanging himself under one of the apple trees about the grounds. BEAD HAS BEEN SENT FOR BY THE GOVERNOR Tie-Up Over a Labor Commissioner. POLITICIANS ARE GUESSING STATE PRINTERS INDORSE THEIR PRESIDENT. | Deputies Selected by Gage and Burns—Complications Over the Governor’s Staff. gty Politiclans are all concerned in a quict interview which took place not long ago in the Palace Hotel betw ernor Gage and A. J. Read of Oak- land, who is a candidate for Labor Com- missioner. The appointment of sioner should have been made by the Governor three months ago when Com- missioner Fitzgerald's term expired. Ow- ing 0 the strong fight being made by several candidates, the Governor hus been unable to decide which candidats would be the best suited to his interests. Two months ago it was known that the | Governor had decided to appoint Wallace Pord of Berkeley, formerly of the position. But the friends of other candidates were so determined that Mr. Pond should not get the plum that the Governor vacillated, and now e shall decide upon a dark horse the Hght 1s squarely between Wallace Pond and A, J. Reau. This makes the call of Mr. Read on the Governor & matter of great interest, and all are wondering what tr lttie meeting at the Palace. | " Naturally the friends of Mr. Read con- | strue the meeting as favorable, irguing hat_the Governor would not send for | Mr. Read unless he intended to talg busi- Labor Commis- | ness with him. | During the past few weeks the support- |ers of A. J. Read have made manv as- | saults upon the Governor. It is known | that among the Ozkiand man's warm | friends are Dr. Pardee, Frank A. Leaca, Colonel J. P. Irish, Congressman Metcalf, W. G. Hensh: and J. J. Valentine. At yesterday's session of the annual con- vention of the State Typographical Union the following message proposed by D gate Coolidge of Santa Rosa was una mously ordered sent to_the Governor: “Hon. H. T. Gage, Sacramento: | fornfa State Typograph! ] sesslon, respectfully —requests that y | will appoint A. J. Read, our honored pre { dent, to the position of Labor Commis- | sionér.” The Labor Commissi the new law has quitet an extensive pat- ronage. About eight deputies, including the chief deputy. have to be appointed, some in San Francisco, one in Saer mento, one in Los Angeles and one in San Jose. Tt Is belleved to be this patronage which is causing the tie-up in the nam Thg of a Commissioner. Mr. Read de- clines to say anything regarding his | interview with Governor Gage and seems | surprised that the fact has become public The Governor's long hesitation over | this appointment may occasion surprise | in_Oakland. but the politicians elsewhcre { who get inside tips know that the ques- | tion of patronage must be settled hefore | a commission is issued to Mr. Fitzgerald's svccessor. Whoever gets the office of Labor Commissioner must signify in ad- vance that he will appoint deputies and attachcs from a list 6f names to be fur- nished him. No doubt this list has been prepared to meet the views of Gage and Burns on the distribution of patronaxe. | Read may kick against the programme voit, but the programme for subordinates the bureau. The Bureau of Labor Sta- tistics is to be used as a political agency to boost Dan Burns. Pond will accept the terms prescribed, some other aspirant may be easily found who will take the office for the salary and accept_the patronage list without ques- | tion. 1t is possible that applicants n their zeal have promised the trades unions some recognition in the selection of deputies. It will the successful aspirant to fulfill such promi The unions should be advised that the patronage has been held out for the Mexican, so that time may not be wasted in_indorsing_ favorites. | "in the National Guard there is much | whispering about appointments to tne | staft’ of Governor Gage.
