BOUNCED AND INDICTED.
QUEER PRS DICAMENT OF AN IN
COMPETENT PROBATE JUDGE.
RESIGNED HIS O.FIC'.
Then Took ~ Back Only TO Find uim
self In Very Troublesome Diietn"a
Lsughabie story of he Woes Of
Payne County OHicial Who
HAD Not studied tho
Statutes.

Payne county is without probate
Judge at the present time although
there is still man hanging to the
chair recently vacated by his own act
although he, himself was ignorant of
what he was doing at the time. the
Saltwater Gazette gives the following
interesting account of the case; When
the grand jury be gan an investigator
of the county offices the probate judge
became very nervous, and, rather than
have his records scrutinized too closely
he rendered his resignation to the
board OF county commissioners in
hopes the investigation would cease
then and there. Then the principal
leaders Of the Pop party got their
heads together and devised plan by
which he could still retain his office.
The plan was put into effect and
worked like a charm so far as it went
Instructions were given to the con
mssioners to not take action upon the
resignation until after the grand Try
had been discharged, and then refuse
TO accept IT,
This was expected to have the effect
of stopping the investigation and still
he could hold the office. They carried
the matter L little too far, however, tC
retrace their steps, ignorsntly, oi
course, but 1t still has the same effect
as II they knew what they were doing
With regard TO designations of coun
ty officers, the law provides that the
resignation shall be in writing and de-
posted with the county clerk, just a.
was done in this case, but the law fur
ther provides that unless otherwis,
stipulated it is effective from and aftei
the time of filing This leaves no part
OF the transaction to the discretion o
the commissioners and they must ac
cept IL and govern themselves accord
ingly. They have no right TO reject ;
resignation, as it IS effective before
they have time TO act upon IL. WheI
the pop wiseacres came TO a realization
of the situation then they concluded
that the only proper way out of th'
dilemma would be for the commission
ers to reappoint Judge Basel to th'
Office which he had unintentionally
vacated. but in this they again raj
against serious obstacle in the ses
sion Laws of the last legislature, whicl
provides that TO be eligible to tn,
: Office of probate judge a man must b.
an attorney of at least three years
! practice. This provision of the stat
ute entirely shuts out the last ray o
hope for the old man, and he must &C
cept the consequences of his resigns
tion just the same as though he mean
II at the time he filed il.
Meanwhile the office is vacant an,
will be until probate judge is az
pointed and qualified.
