There were several other candidates for the appointment in this district and it was largely through the influence of Senator Samuel A. Jones that Dr. Brooks was selected. The state department is to be congratulated and Dr. Brooks many friends are felicitating him upon the worthy recognition of his splendid public services. [Utica Saturday Globe, Feb 26, 1915]
