BE did not believe that anything could
be done until the Legislature met, but
he believed the investigation should be
made and that il anybody is guilty he
should be put out. AS far as he is con.
cerned he would like to see O seal put
on every Dispeusary. but it is law and
chGsges should be investigated.
Colonel Neal said that he did not
object to the investigation, but he
thought the Board of Control and the
present legislative committee should
do tho Investigation, and that right
away.
Mr.. Efird said that he thought the
legislative committee should cooper
ate with the board, aud he thought
the resolution should request them to
act in unison with the beard.
Mr.. Winkler said that committee
only had to do with investigation of
the finances and had nothing to do
with calling for persons and papers.
Colonel Jones said that tho Board of
Control had been called together, but
it could only investigate as for as en-
ployees of the Dispensary are con-
cerned.
The resolution was then adopted.
after some more cursory discussion.
Mr.. Shuman wanted to correct an
error in DR.. Timmerman's vote in
Greenville. It was 4,200 instead Of
1900.
