Various plums are beginning to fall into the laps of well known and deserving Democrat* throughout the county with changes in postmasters arid a score of Democratic appointments in othet lines of work being made. Recommendations for these jobs have been made by the county Democratic committee, with Henry Greeley of Richmond as chairman. Two of the important postal positions in McHenry county have been bestowed upon Daniel Desmond, Hartland farmer, appointed acting postmaster at Woodstock, while Ralph Me teal f, a farmer of Riley township, has been made postmatser at Marengjp The general understanding is that an acting-postmaster is named by the president of the U. S., during the period when, congress is riot in session and that when congress convenes the person so appointed is confirmed by the national law-making body, \Vhich receives the list from the president. Whether .Desmond and Metcalf will assume'the^duties of their off ice,£ before cotlfjrmed by Congress ... is not known. However, their designation by the appointive head of the nation as acting postmasters is pretty conclusive that they will soon be in charge of the postal affairs of ths two offices.

Chairman Greeley said John Corcoran of Woodstock has been mentioned for custodian of the armory at Woodstock, although several other names have also been suggested. May Get Job When asked if he expected an appointment, for himself, Mr. Greeley replied he was too busy taking care of his friends to be thinking of anything for himself. However, he did indicate he may receive an appointment later, not indicating whether it would be state or federal. When asked if he was going to be a candidate for county clerk on the Democratic ticket next Spring, he replied that his name tiai already been mentioned and he has not decided as to whether he will accept the place on the ticket or not. Mr. Greeley admitted it had been a difficult job making up a slate of recommendations, but that the above list of recommendations was backed by practically every member of the county central committee. *'To the victors belong the spoils," according to an old adage. With this in mind, the Democratic organization feels its members haVe the right to demand that state and federal appointments now beld~ by Republicans in the county be turned over to Democrate*.
