Control Will Probabty, jfee Removal' of . frresnt Postmaster Mar- ' 'r, thai, District Attorney. The transfer of the national gov- ;rnment from democrat icy to jc jublican management next March probably will carry with it some important changes in high places in 'the federal building here. , There is ux uncqucealed feeling of uncertain ly among those upon whose hea lave been placed democratic crowns. These official replacements are generally accepted as accompani- ' merits of a change of party control, but the uncertainty of the extent of " tfie jtnrnovcr offers material for con siderable, gossip and speculation. .. New Postmaster Probable., A change in -postmaster seems to be in the cards, so.-nuch so that the name of a prominent Omaha re publican has . even been mentioned for.' the place. H. S. Danielnow serving, as acting' postmaster has 'not been, confirmed or formally ap- . pointed.- At the time of the :Vath of Charles Fanning Mr. Daniel was named as acting postmaster. Mr. Fannmffls term expired last Julv. On March 31, 1917, President. Wilson ,Sssned,an order that the postmaster gcieral. should notify the civil serv jce commission of any vacancies In potof fires and explaining that can didates for the positions should sub mit themselves ito open competitive examinations. i 5 Takes Examination. s .1 ' An examination was called for in connection with the Omaha vacancy, the order for this stating that it Was not-an examination under the civil service rules, but underline order of the v president. The-procedure is that the civil service commission should advise the postmastergen verad of the highest qualified eligible of any exanftnation. Last May Mr. Daniel N took the examination with , other applicants and he now states that he has not been advised of the result of that examination. - There is a difference of opinion as . to- the security of United States Marshal J. C. Dahlman, who was confirmed last June- for a term of four years. Some take the view that the marshal may be allowed to re main by "courtesy.' ' May Run Fct Mayor. Persons claiming to be political confidants of MrDahlman recently . asserted-that he will enter the city campaign after the holidays ,and will .make another try for mayor. The 1 last ,word fromvMr. Dahlman him self on the subject was rather cryp ' 'tic. . ' v . , The collector of internal , revenue has jurisdiction through the state and now holds a position of im mense patronage. The income tax work and issuance of various per mits has increased the work of the office." 1 George L. Loomis of Fre mp'n,-- the present incumbent, 'has served five' years last August and waS confirmed fo4ir years ago ; last May. He may be removed by the appointment of a successor- by the ' president. ' ' , ' - , ' ' Changes Problematical. The number of changes inthe in ternal revenue office s problemati cal. , The head of the department is looked upon as certain to go if precedents are followed. Most of the 100 positions created . by 4he - democratic administration, in this department, are under civil service. An Omaha man, who has-been prominent in local democratic, af fairs, is now in the internal revenue department local offices. He stated that he was not under civil service. The term of United States District Attorney Tom Allen expired last summer. He is a brother-in-law of W. J. Bryan. The matter of his ap pointment will be brcngJit befonl the next senate which will have-a re- publican majority. A new district attorney appears to be the most def inite feature of the situation. I Hanley May Go'. J. H. Hanley holdshe position of ' federal prohibition enforcement ofr ficer. A prominent Omaha . demo crat stated yesterday that he looks for a change in this office and he predicts that there will be stricter enforcement of the 18th amendment funder the republican sdministrationi Mr. Hanley's jurisdiction" covers the vs.tate. There' are 10 good jobs now. - 'connected with his office and four j more' in prospect. The democratic administration "has nude a rhpve to place most of these positions under civil service. .
