It Is by the same token interpreted as an indication thnt he In tends to start Immediately on a most vigorous program of speech-making In all parts of the city. v The certainty with which Mr. Drlpps' appointment seemed to bo expected by In dependent leaders led to the 'belief that Director Porter had suggested his name to the Mayor as the most available roan to succeed him ns Director , of Public Safety In the next administration If the Director Is elected Mayor.

Porter's showing on the republican ticket wns higher than had been expected. At the samo time tho Mayor took a slap at Thomas B.

"The nomination of Mr. Smith," said tho Mayor, "by way of the Maine woods and Harrlsburg, is no repugnant that even dyed-in-the-wool Republicans should repudiate him.
