Con-, grcesman Rlacklnirn. It Is well known, has be"n stn-n ucmslv iiosh1 to both these men. iid Slate Chair man Rollins even i-onccdcd him that he should name the next marshal. The congressman Hoisted L. C. Wag oner of Btalesvlllc. and the politi cians thought thin, willed the matter. As to the district ' attorneyship the state chairman e congressman agreed In. desiring the retirement of Holton. But It seems. 'that Holton nad fortified himself at the White nouse by his active prosecution of the men In the government rex-enue service accused oi fraud. An Impor tant trial is now In progress uj Greensboro. President Roosevelt be ing apprised or the facta decided that the i present diMi lut;. attorney should be upheld ami awarded htm another term. And this prosecution also caused Wagoner to lose the marshal ship. Wagoner's brother-in-law was accused of violating the law in the conduct of it distillery. He did not go to trial huiJ secure a vindication, but compromised the case. The pres ident doubtless decided that the pres ent marshal, who has actively assisted the district attorney, should continue in his office rather than give the place to one who had ' a relative threatened with prosecution. The appointments (odny "were a distinct reverse for Congressman Blackburn after his victories last week in the naming of t3 rant and Frazler.
