"Washington, Nov. 19 -
The president has decided not to remove Judge
Moore, of Nome. While his administration has
not been satisfactory, it is thought that the fact
that he has been surrounded by the worst kind of
officials may be responsible for most of the
dissatisfaction.
Governor Brady, whose office was also
investigated by Day, has had his administration
endorsed and will be reappointed.
The text of Day's report has been refused
the press, but is given out that Judge Brown
violated the proprieties of his office. Attorney
General Moody announces that Brown's
successor will be appointed in a few days.
There has been many applications for the
position, but the president has referred them
all to the Pacific Coast senators."
Prepared opinion in 1st Nat Bk. Seattle v Fish.
Dinner with Rob. Cole & family - Nan present.
