COMMISSIONERS SELECTION
 PROMISES A CONTEST

The governor evidently proposes 8 fight on the selection of capitol com missioners. He contends that this authority is his under the constitution and laws. The building of new state capitol has thus far been delayed through his tyrannical efforts to di- rect this work. But he is carrying his "rule or ruin" policy too far and the sentiment of the people is timely expressed in the passage of the Merri- man bill over his veto, in the house by vote of 70 to 10 and in the senate by an equally emphatic approval of "A to 8.
 Davis vetoed the Merriman bill for the very reason that his power of ap- pointing was curtailed, yet the very enactment which he refuses to trans init to the secretary of state or recog- nize in any way after its legal enact ment, he hastens to take advantage of upon one score, while questioning it's legality on another.
 If the Merriman bill oversteps the constitutional rights of the legislature in refusing the governor the preroga- tive of appointing the capitol com missioDers, then it is null and void and no legislation has been accomp- lished nor appropriation made for the completion of the capitol building But this the governor virtually denies in his hurried action to name a com mission. His real purpose is to furth- CT block the progress of this much needed work and throw the matter into the courts, as they must pass up on the appointment of the capitol commissions, the one named by the governor and that to be selected by the legislature.
