The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, April 8, 1909

The city administration changed last night and the new council was sworn in
and the new Mayor, GEO. F. CARPENTER, was inaugurated. There was no
inaugural "bawl," so it is said, neither Mayor CONNEL nor one of the
retiring councilmen even shedding a tear as they went forth into the outward
world. Following is the organization of the council and other appointive
officials:

Finance. - HICKMAN, KULL and BOSS.
Fire. - HOOPER, GASSER and BOSS.
Streets and Alleys. - BOSS, HOOPER and KULL.
Paving and Sidewalk. - GASSER, HICKMAN and KULL.
Electric. - KULL, HOOPER and HICKMAN.
Health. - GASSER, HOOPER and BOSS.
Parks. - HOOPER, GASSER and KULL.
Judiciary. - HICKMAN, BOSS and KULL.
Water and Sewer. - BOSS, HICKMAN and HOOPER.

IRA BOYLAN was retained as Marshall and THOMAS HUFFMAN, nightwatch. ROBERT
MCCOY was selected as Street Commissioner. L.F. MAPLE promised to act as
City Clerk for a month until one could be secured.
