Il g. Wells was as far as ever from
being commonplace in the lecture
which he delivered on Literature and
The State" at the Royal Institute the
other day. He began by explaining
that his definition Of literature included
good preaching, good letter writing and
even good conversation, and later dwelr
on the relation held by plays and works
Of fiction to the welfare Of the state
a relation which he described as inti-
mate. People" the novelist main

went on, that the great possibilities
OF social adjustment reside. Wren that
adjustment does come, it viii be the
work Of the novelist"
Referring 10 both novels and plays,
Mr.. Wells affirmed that If they were
well done the state would endure: if
they were badly done the state would
tend to so to pieces and would decay.

there is not an open market for such

Mr.. STRIPPING is confident that the league
is contrary both to the Sherman anti

1t is thought that sufficient evidence

Owens B. Vail, genera17in.chief, Of the

Since Vail left Minneapolis several
persons have admitted that they were
his victims. One of these is Elmer II.
White, who was appointed Command

being party to the swindle, but E. D.

as White learned of Vail IS schemes he

SIGNING BLANK
REQUISIIIONs
ATTORNEY GENERAL ADMITS TIE
PRACTICE rs IRREGULAR.
But the Defense Would Find It Diff
cult to Prove in Any Case That the
Governors Signature Was Not Au-
thOrized

Attorney General Donahower says
that requisition papers signed by the
governor in blank are not valid. How
ever, it is incumbent on the prisoner to
show that the signature was not regu-
lar. The signature Of the governor, at
great seal, import the verify and gen
uineness of the document. The court
must recognize this unless there is COM
petent proof that the governor did not
authorize the signature. The governor
may give authority by telegraph or tele-
phone if he is in the state.
This agrees with the ruling Of Judge
Harrison Yesterday in the Hubert case;
The attorneys for Hubert said they had
clerk that he was absent from the state
Judge Harrison said this was not proof
that the document was improperly exc:
cuted. However. he admitted he had
grave doubt whether the governor had
right to sign e 2 warrant il blank and
ton were presented he should hold the
warrant invalid.
The attorney. general is the real au.
thority on acquisitions, and the govern.
or's signature is really a matter OF
form. Tt is understood to be the prac'
tice, when the governor leaves the state
to leave q few acquisitions signed in
blank, to be filled out at the attorney
generals request. Under the court s
| ruling and the opinion Of the attorney
general it would be necessary to show
that the particular requisition in ques
tion was not authorized by the govern
or. Such evidence might be hard tC
get.
