Mr.. Hart hoped thnt the motion would not
prevail. Three wccka ago the Chairman OF the
Railroad BOARD was here. The speaker charged
that the Doari had done llttle or nothing to en-
forcs the law during the laat TWO years. Mr.
Smith said In repy that that little had beon donc
because they were awnttlnR the decision Of tic
Supreme Court On certain suits instituted some
three years ago. The speaker could not sec why
we hnvt such Board, who are not doing their
duty. lie thought that the motion should not pre-
vat1. He believed tic Governor could mako those
men know that thcy muat do their duty. The Coy
esuor Ia a fair man, an honest man. and, IL tho
facts vera brought to his notice, there was no
doubt but what he would supersede these men.
Mr.. Baldwin thought the Governor has the
power to remove them.
Mr.. Armstrong said that tho Governor did
not have the power under the statute. TIM

form it, duty. It should be abolished. II has
begun no SUITS and somo that had been begun

]. R. Shower remarked that tho President OF
the Board hac said that, whenever any abuses
hnd been reported to the Board. tho railroad
managers wcro called upon, and, upon prcs-
eutatton Of the facts, they rcmcltcd all conf
plants. The statements made BY Mr. Smith.
OF the Railroad Board, at the first meeting,
relative to The suits now pending, and other
complaints, wero not altogether truo In fact.
