having diHsentsd thsreErOm. The moior-
itY Of the court says:
ain 1891 an act Of the Legislature was
passed providing for the organization Of
banks, the regulation Of the banking
business, and authorizing the appoint
ment of bank commissioner. The act
was passed in the closing days OF the
Legislative session, and did not take Of
feCt until q few days after the legislR.
tuEe had adjourned. It provided that
the governor should appoint, by and
with the advice and consent of the SEN
ate, bank commissioners, whose term Of
Office should be four years, and until
his successor was appointed and quail
fed, but made no provision for the fill
ing Of vacancies that might occur in the
Office.
ION March 21, 1891, Charles F. John
SON was appointed by the governor, and
the senate not being in session, the sp-
pointment was not confirmed. He quail.
fed and took possession Of the Office
and continued to perform all the duties
thereof until his successor was appointed
and had qualified. At the next session
OF the senate, in February, 1893, John
W. Breidenthsl was appointed and his
appointment was confirmed by the sem

tanned several involving the tenure Of
sppointivs Offices, or Q question regard
ing the administration Of such offices.
OF these the most important was the
Jobes. Brsidenthsl case which was de-
cided in favor Of the defendant, John
W. BreldenthBl.
In the case OF s. w. Chase against the
board Of penitentiaFy directors, brought
to compel the board TO audit the war
den's vouchers, the decision was against
the warden. The substance Of the de-
clsi0n iH "a follows:
"The warden of the penitsntiRrY can
not by mRndRmus compel the board OF
directors OF that institution to examine
the adjusted bills and accounts of the
warden incurred In carrying on the
business Of the penitentiRry and indorse
the wRrden's report or statement of the
same, the duty OF the board in the prem
ises being to the public rather than to
the warden. g" The board ia the
governing body Of the psnitentiary. The
Wardsn-iS the chief executive and ad-
ministrRtivs officer under the direction
Of the board. That the warden should
take the board to task for any supposed
disregard Of their duties is, at least, un-
Ssemly. Any corrective or visitorisl pro-
ceeding ought to be initiated by the
state through its appointed agencies.
Although the plaintiff may be warden
de jure, yet in this proceeding, he stands
in no better position than::s private Cit
izen and can not champion the rights Of
the public"
N. A. Householder had asked for a
writ compelling the governor to revoke

have proclaimed this slander from the

say that instead Of roasting Governor

not only as an earnest friend Of the

man whose cooperation is absolutely
necessary to the enforcement Of the law.
This does not suit the politician reform

THE TUG GEORGE W. cHlLDs
Fired Upon and Brought Back by the
 Revenue Cutter McLane.

Fired Upon and Brought Back by the Revenue Cutter McLane. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. July 22-A cable gram from Key West, to the Times Union says:
 This city was greatly excited this afternoon by hearing reports of can non, and it was soon learned the rev enue cutter McLane was firing at the tug George w. Childs, which left this morning. Soon after leaving the col lector of customs, upon information of the Spanish consul ordered the Me- Lane to overtake the Childs and bring her back to port. It is rumored that deekhand by the name of William Lynch, who was shipped at Jamaica, had furnished the consul with infor- nation to the effect that she was bound on a filibustering expedition.
 Lieut.. Hay, of the McLane, says that signals were set for the Childs to heave to, but no attention was ppid to them, and seeing no chance of over taking her, two solid shots and one shell were fired before she came about. She was boarded by q crew from the cutter, with Lieut.. Hay in command, and brought into port about 3 o'clock.
 Capt. Swain of the Childs is very in- dignant at being fired upon, and says that he knows no reason why such action should be taken He says that he was properly entered from his trip at Jamaica and while some slight ir- regularities did exist in his crew list, it was owing to the fault of his brokers at Philadelphia and had been settled at the customhouse here. He sailed from Jamaica on June 13, and after touching at Point Salina and Barrahena for repairs, he sailed for Key West, where he arrived on the Sd. He was ordered to Tortugas to be fumigated and after remaining there seven days, he came back to Key West.
 He said yesterday about noon, he cleared his tug for New York, having first surrendered his register and taken out enrolment and coasting licenses, and that shortly before leaving the assistant engineer reported to him that he saw party offer Lynch some money and he was informed by Lynch that it was S200 to corroborate what the fireman had reported, and that his answer was that he knew nothing and could say nothing. The captain sent deck hand, shipped at this port, to find out the person who was talking to Lynch. He returned, stating that Lynch was then talking to the Spanish consul.
