To connection with or. Haultain i Strong Rumor is prevalent in Tho Apitai that the position will be held open until after the provincial elections in Saskatchewan will this summer and that the appoint ment will then be made. Air. I Paul tart s Legal experience and varied training coupled with a Strong Constitution it is considered would com mend him for the position. The name of or. Meighen is Uno being mentioned in certain Cir Oles. The Rumor is however generally discredited for though he is recognized As possessing keen judgment and a Good knowledge of railway Law hit health Lias not been such As to commend Holni. For a position so onerous. A somewhat general consensus of Inion prevailing Here is that the Man for the position did he belong to the Seq tired political Faith would be .11. K. Cowan ., of Toronto whose intimate knowledge of railway Law Lieen judicial aggressive personality and re Grad Constitution would eminently fit him for the responsible Posi Tion of chairman of the commission. Ottawa press comments. Ottawa May evening citizen says speculation is Rke As to the pro Bable successor of judge Mabee on Tho rail Way commission but no appoint ment May looked for immediately. The government recognizes that the position is one calling Lor a Man of special qualifications there arc few who will measure up1 to the Law Chirac commissioner in regard the Peculiar fitness. The Law requires that the chairman should be lawyer so none others can qualify. It is Learned that no one particularly is in % i new but there is gossip connecting with the position such men As judge Lennox judge Bidden g. Lynch St Fulton ., and h. A. Powell. . Of St. John ., now on the International water commission. U political considerations do not count a. K. Cowan of Toronto has numerous sup porters for the position. The appoint ment will be made by the prime min ister himself after consultation with the minister of railways and stated it will take the even ing journal. Commenting on.
