NORTH CAROLINA IUD6ESHlP.
The Law Forbids Ewart's ReSppointment
by the President.

In the face of the following facts It
seems that Senator Marion Butler will
gain his point in his persistent fight
against the confirmation of Hon. Hamil-
ton G. Ewart as Federal Judge.
Judge Dick rendered his resignation
for retirement about February l, 1898
Shortly after the President sent the NOM
ination of Mr.. Ewart TO the Senate to
fiji the vacancy. The nomination was
not acted upon by the Senate. but was
pending when the Senate adjourned. For
the existing vacancy the President again
appointed Judge Ewart July, 1SeS-for the
recess. At the next session of the Sen
ate which convened in December, 1873,
the President once more sent IN the NOM
ination Of Ewart. 1t was again not acted
upon by the Senate, but was pending
when the session expired March 4: 1888.
The question then is whether the Presl-
dent has the power to make the recess
appointment again under the clfclm-
stances and under the conditions OF sec
ton ! l769 Revised Statutes OF the Unteo
States, which is as follows:
Section 1.7es. The President is authorized 70 fill
all vacancies which may happen during the recess Of
the Senate by reason OF death or resignation or ex
pirstion OF term OF Office by granting commissions
which shah expire at the end OF their next session
thersafter Ana IL no appointment, by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate is made to an Of
fee so vheant OF temporarily filled during such next
session Of the Senate, the orhce shall remain IN
abeyancs without any salary. fees, or emoumeAts
attached thereto until IL is filed by appointment
thereto b. and with the advice and consent Of the
Senate; and during such tims all the powers and
duties belonging to such oce shall be exercised b.
such other ocer as may by law exercise such powers
and duties in case Of q vacancy In such effee.
Judge EWart is in the city now and is
naturally concerned about the evident
wording of the law.
