HAS POWER TO REMOVE k,pp
The state Supreme Court Decides
for Gov. Lee.

N
The supreme court has granted the per-
emptory writ of mandamus asked for in
the removal of Insurance Commissioner
Kipp, and issued Judgment giving possess
ion TO Thomas III. Ayers, the governors
appointee, who is now in possession of the
Office. The court decided i'll favor of the
governor OH every point ut issue and leaves
that office in the future absolutely under.
his control, to remove or replace the com-.
missioner at his pleasure. They hold that
the constitutional protection isonly granted
to the officers specifically named in that i'm
strument and that the legislature may make.
any provision which it desires in regard to.
an office created by legislative enactment.
They make three classes of officers in this
~state-thosc which the constitution de-
clares to be only removable by impcach-
ment, those which can be removed for
cause (Which classes are both guarded by
constitutional provisions), and those who
are in Office by virtue of Legislative enact
ment, to which class the commissioner of
insurance belongs. AS the statute which
created the Office grants to the governor
the power of removal, the governor has
not exceeded his powers in the present
case. The legislature the court says, was
entirely within its constitutional rights in
passing such a statute.
A motion for Il stay of proceedings for
thirty days was asked, for the purpose of,
asking for q rehearing or new trial, ltut
was denied. Mr.. kipp has not yet decided
whether he will ask for a relearing of the
