The former discusses the President’s appointments to political office in the South, which are causing controversy. It includes a portion of a letter from Herman Henry Kohlsaat, editor of the Chicago Record-Herald, asking for fair treatment of the President by Southern newspapers, since the President sincerely intends to build up the government service in the South by appointing qualified officials, regardless of party affiliation.
