Now They,ll Kick j..

Governor Morrill, is having a hard
time with his contingent fund, says
the Topeka Press, 1t is an easy prey
of all the designing politicians and as
result the $4,000 turned over by
Gov, Lewelling and the $500 ap-
propriated for Gov. Morrill, was spent
long before the next installment be-
came available.
On July l another $4,000 becomes
available but there are contracts ahead
that will more than exhaust it.
The asylum committee recently
notified the governor that it would
not make its report till it was paid
up, The governor, so it is SAID, pro.
missed to do so out Of his contingent
fund after July l. The other investi
eating committees expect their pay
out Of that fund too, but great many
hungry redeemeIs are in this cast
destined to DISAPPOINTMENT.
A new contingency has arisen. Al
unexpected demand has been made OF
the governors contingent fund which
must be met and which will take abou
half of it at one stroke.
On account of the recent fire at tn,
penltentiary, $4,000 must be had TO
Immediate use to put the buildings il

Pension Money.

The assistant secretary OF the IN
terror has signed acquisitions upon
the treasury department for more
than $13,000,000 pension money to be
paid out on July H. Instead of draw
ing out the full amount of money
needed for the quarterly payment OF
pensions, the interior department now
makes requisition monthly aud dis
tributes the money, deposlting it at
the various cities, so that it will be
easier both for the treasury depart
ment and better transmission methods
to the various agencies, If the full
$40,000,000 was sent out every three
months it would be too large a drain
on the treasury, and too large sum
to be trusted to ordinary methods of
transmission. In the money sent for
payment July 4 the Chicago agency
gets $2,S0O,000; the Des Moines
agency, $2,100,O00; Topeka, Kan,
100000, and Louisville, Ky, 1OO,-

WARDEN CHASE MUST GO.

WARDEN CHASE MUST GO.
The Supreme court has decided
the penitentiary squabble In favor Of
j. Bruce Lynch, the newly appointed
warden, so Seth W. Chase, who has
been holding the office, regardless Of
Governor Morrill's order of removal
will have to step down and out.
The suit was commenced by Lynch.
1t was quo warranto proceeding to
determine who was entitled to the
position. There was no controversy
over the facts. Lynch admitted that
Chase was appointed for a term of
four years, commencing May 8, 1898.
but claimed that Chase had been le-
gally removed. Chase commended
that the investigation and subsequent
removal we're illegal. This Is what
the court says:
The Office of warden of the state
penitentlary is created for the public
convenience, and the incumbent of
office is the mere agent Of the public,
who, by virtue Of his appointment, &C.
quires the right to exercise the func-
tions of the Office and receive the pre-
scribed compensation until the end of
his term, or until such time as there
may be a resignation or forfeiture
of and removal from the Office in the
manner provided by law, but he has
no property or vested right in such
office.
1t is within the power Of the legis-
lature to provide summary method
of removing incompetent and unfaith-
full officers, and to that end it may
confer authority upon executive or
administrative officers.
While the proceeding to remove
from Office for cause involves the ex-
animation of facts and the exercise of
Judgment and discretion by the ex-
ecutive office, his action IS not judi
clal IN the sense that 1t belongs exclu-
slvely to the courts,
Chapter 239 Of the laws of 1889,
providing for the investigation of the
affairs of state institutions and the
conduct of officers connected with the
same, IS not superseded or repealed
by any Of the provisions of chapter
152 Of the laws of 1891, being an act
in relation to the state penitenharY.
The title to the act constituting
chapter 239 of the laws of 1889, is
broad enough to cover the provisions
of the act authorizing the investiga-
ton of state institutions and the con-
duct of the Offices In charge of the
same.
A committee appointed under the
provisions of that act has authority to
investigate charges duly preferred
against the warden of the peniten.
tiary when the Legislature is not in
session, and where, upon sufficient
notice a hearing is had and a report
made finding that the charges are
sustained, and cause for removal ex-
lists, the Governor, under the law of
1891, is authorized to act upon the
findings and report, and remove the
warden from his offices.
In summary proceeding for the
removal of officers under the statute
the same formality and precision are
not required as in a trial before a
court and the accused can not claim
the benefits, incidents aud common
law rights pertaining to such trial,
nor has the doctrine of res adjUdicata
any application in such proceedings"
The decision was unanimous. MIR.
Justice johnson wrote the opinion.
