North Catqpni MORRISON NAMES WAITS AS REVENUE OFFICER IN STATE Tahde Over Power* and Duties Heretofore Hold by Tex Conuniseioa GENERALLY ACCEPTED MAXWELL WOULD WIN Appointment U Received Here A» Fore coating Governor’s Candidacy For U. 5. Sonata; New CommiMioner Takes Office On May 1 at Salary of 98,500 Annually. Governor Cameron Mormon yes terday appointed A. D. Watte, of StateavilK as CommiMioner of Rev anue with power* »nd dntics hereto fore borne By the 8Ule Tax loin mil lion, under provisions of an act of tha 1921 legislature. The appointment w»» annonrpod by Governor Mornaon, through his privalf ircrtlary, WilUam H. Rich ardson, the Governor leaving at 10 :80 for Tattioro to spend -the week end. A. J. Maxwell, corporation commis sioner, and candidate for the office, recivtd the nswi of the appointment without comment. Tha and of a race that ha* bean run hotly since the adjournment of the lagiaiitnra was surprising in its effaet on those who had watched it. Whan the now office was croatcd by thg General Assembly, legislator* generally understood that Mr. Max well would receive tha appointment, la fact, Mr. Ma swell understood ha bad the Governor’* promise of ap pointment. In the preparation of the bill, Governor Morrison bad stricken from it the provision for confirma tion by tha Senate then in session, stating that if this clause were re tained, in tha face of important mat ter* than pending before the Corpor ation Commission, ha could not ap point Mr. Maxwell and remove him from that body. The change was made to the draft ef tha bill.haad by virtue of it the appointment come* up for continuation by the Senate of 1923. When rumen of the Watt* candi dacy first appeared in the legislature during the consideration of tho meas ure. Mr. Watts himself denied that he was running. Later, ha mads pub lic announcement of hie candidacy in wmJagamrtam^lpomwaib-te Mmptath* highly laudatory of Governor Morri son. An organised campaign in hia interest immediately turned a flood of letters upon tho Governor and the friesds of Mr. Maxwell got busy. Hoc ratty published statements of tho Governor's views on the appoint ment, including hia high appraisal of the man as a political organiser, in no wise prepared the way for the dis tinct shock of the appointment re gard here as oqalvaltnt to tho Gov ernor's announcement as candidate . tpr U. S. Senate. One expression from state official dom ia indicative of almost the gen eral recaption of tho appointment ia state circles. "I fed like the old lady, who pray ed all night for the mountsun to be asoved,” said one of prominence yey up early in the night of supplica tion, looked uut of the window and exlabned: 'Just aa I expected. It's still thar.‘" Tabes Office May 1. The new commissioner, who has heretofore served as Collector of In ternal Bcvenuo for tho Western DU trkt of North Carolina until hia re signation, takes offic* on May 1 at a salary of |fi,bOO annually.

Among the older men of the party the plan anunomouily ai'itgcsled some time ago to the effect that all who want a change ia administration keep away from the primary appear* to find favor. Few of theso Tutve a ay ’hope of electing an out and out Kp publitan ticket, but they do hope to aseist in naming an independent tic ket that would include nt b-a*t oro Republican on the Board of Commis sioners.
