Campaign to name field against Murchie as marshal term ends
Senator W Murray Crane is notified of a candidate to oppose United States Marshal Murchie whose term expires in April. An organized fight to block reappointment grows with former Speaker Johnny Cole of Andover and ex-Mayor H Heustiss Newton of Everett named. Charles S Baxter leads the opposition, while ex-Congressman Samuel Powers follows Taft campaign interests. The dispute intensified after Desmond deputy marshal appointment was rejected, a move Frothingham backed and Lodge reportedly assured.
