A LEGAL CLASH.
Gov. Drake Will Pardon Himself if
Committed For Contempt

Gov. Drake Will Pardon Himself if
Committed For Contempt.
Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 20.-Gov.
Drake must commission John R.Prime
as brigadier in command of the first
brigade of the Iowa National Guard
or answer for contempt of court, In
case he is brought up for contempt
the governors attorney has stated life
will pordon himself, and the interest
ing problem will be presented of the
executive and judicial departments in
direct conflict with each other.
Nearly a year ago Prime was elect
ed by the first brigade as its comman-
der, Adjutant General Wright had be
friended James A. Guest, his oppon-
ent and declined to admit Primes
election. He ordered a new election
and again Prime won. Then the vote
was so canvassed as to throw out a
large number of Prime votes. Guest
was declared elected and commission
ed. Prime sued for mandamus to
compel the governor to commission
him. The case has been pending sew
eral months, and yesterday Judge
Spurrier decided it. He held that
Prime was elected, that only person
al spite actuated the adjutant and
governor in refusing and the governor
must commission him. The manda-
mus will issue today. The attorney
general represented the governor at the
trial. He declared the governors
authority as commander-in-chief of
the Guard paramount to the courts,
and said he would not obey its orders;
if committed for contempt he would
pardon himself.
The defense will appeal ut once, and
an early hearing is expected. Prime
will commence a proceeding to Gust
Guest as commander of the brigade,
and some sensational features are ex-
pected as the governor is expected TO
refuse to obey the courts orders.

Brought Out In The Case OF Joel
Sweat.

Brought Out In The Case OF Joel
Sweat.
Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 20-The inyestiga-
ton of the charges against Justices
Joel Sweat of the Brunswick Circuit
and Seaborn Reese of the Northern
circuit, was taken up yesterday by the
committee appointed from the House
of Representatives to examine wit
nesses and report to the extra session
in February. Thos. B. Fielder of Full
ton, is chairman of the committee,
which consists of nine members. Both
the defendant judges were present
with large number of witnesses. Sem
ator Yancey Carte, the Populist who
preferred the harges, was also pres
ent and he had a number OF witnesses.
He was represented by A. ]. Crovatt,
of Brunswick. w. G. Brantley, of
Brunswick, and John c. Mcdonald, of
Walcross were Judge Sweat's attor-
neys.
The examination of witnesses pro-
ceeded rapidly. Judge Sweat read his
sworn answer to the charges, denying
that there was any improper conduct
between himself and Mrs. NJ, d.
Crosby, whose husband, when under
indictment for murder, had been re-
leased on bond by the judge. Judge
Sweat also denied that he had insult
ed any girl at Indian Spring, sum-
mer resort and he denied that he was
drunk during the convention of the
NJ harIo N N
Island two years ago. He also denied
that he had packed a grand jury in
Camden county in order to get friend
endorsed by the jury for solicitor gen.
eral.
w. f. Key, POSTMASTER at the bar
banquet, testified that Judge Sweat i'm
bibed too freely and spoke so long in
response to toast that he had to call
on the band to play to cut his speech
short. The court stenographer testi-
fled that the next day the judge SEEM
ed to be suffering from the effects OF
dissipation and was very sleepy. The
witness would not state whether the
judge was drunk or sober. One Of the
guests at the banquet testified that If
the Judge was not drunk that night
ne was SOOu dClOE. SOiuS VI lliS
witnesses had taken a drink with him
at blind tiger on the island.
Considerable evidence was taken on
the judges condition in the court room
the day after the banquet. Some of
the witnesses stated that the judge at
first announced that there would be no
court until afternoon on account of the
judges indisposition. but afterward the
court was convened and a man was
tried on some criminal charge. The
man was acquitted.
The sensation of the day was the
evidence of Miss Lena Bradley, Of In
dian Spring, a summer resort of Mid
die Georgia She stated that Judge
Sweat did make insulting remarks to
her during a visit which he paid to the
resort in 1895. When she told her fam
lily about the incident, her father went
to hunt for the judge with a gun, she
stated.
The investigation will run on for sew
eral days.
