JOY AND DISAPPOINTMENT. Among them are those elated at selection of political friends for cabinet places and those disappointed that those whom they have beer boosting have been overlooked in selections so far announced by Fisher. In general the governor's appointments are classed by the practical political workers as "scenery," while by the reform element they are hailed as non-political to a large extent.

Neither classification ie entirely correct. It looks, to one familiar with Pennsylvania politics, as though the governor-elect had given both to Mellon and to Grundy, what they agreed upon and, when there was no agreement named persons satisfactory to himself. A FISHER CABINET. The cabinet bears a strong impress of John Fisher's personal choices. The only man appointed who opposed Fisher at the primaries is said to be Fish Commissioner Nathan R.
