Freeman's Good Luck

He Is Appointed on the State Tax Commission.

With a Salary of $2,500 a Year—The Appointment of the Manchester Attorney Will Please Friends Here.

Gov. Pingree has appointed A. F. Freeman, of Manchester, one of the state tax commission under the Oren permanent tax commission bill. The other members of the commission are Milo D. Campbell, of Coldwater, and Robert Oakman, of Detroit. Mr. Freeman is in every way worthy of a place on the commission and is one of the ablest of the men who have cast their political fortunes with Pingree. His salary will be $2,500 a year. The Detroit Tribune says of his appointment:

"A. F. Freeman is the Washtenaw county man who was named by the governor last winter as a member of the Jackson prison board, and whom the senate refused to confirm because the antis supposed that one of the first things he would do on the board would be to secure the appointment of William Judson, of Washtenaw, as warden of the prison. He is an attorney, and said to be an able man. His appointment is supposed to be largely due to the friendly office of Judson."
