TO u. S. SUPREME COURT
Gov. White To Appeal From Judge Dayons
Decision.

after the adjournment Of the leg
islature.
This committee, consisting of
Delegates Maxwell, Seamon and
Preston met in Charleston in
March, but could not secure the
attendance of Caldwell and Biz
gard as witnesses. When sum-
moned by the seargent Of arms
of the committee, both refused
to appear at Charleston, claiming
that as the legislature had ad-
iourned the committee had no jur-
isdiction over them. They were
then taken into custody by the
Sheriff of Wood county, in which
they reside, and placed under
bond.
Habeas corpus proceedings
were then instituted in the FEEDER
al Court, before Judge Dayton,
and in the meantime the probing
committee adjourned to await the
decision of the court on the pro-
ceedings. The habeas corpus
was argued in the Federal Court
in Parkersburg several weeks
ago. Attorney W. E. Chiffon
represented the state on behalf
of Ex-Governor MacCorkle, who
had been appointed the states at
torney in the investigation pro-
ceedings.
The contention was laid before
the court that the legislature be-
ing no longer in session was no
longer in existence and therefore
had no jurisdiction over the de-
PENDANTS. By discharging the
men from custody Judge Dayton
uphold the contention that the
legislature was no longer in exist
ence.
Attorney Chiffon, who was
present when the decision of
Judge Dayton was rendered, i'm
mediately gave notice that he
would appeal the case to a higher
court.
Mr.. Chiffon deturned from Par
kersburg last night and expressed
the belief that the decision would
be overruled in the higher court.

The Sickly Octoeenarians.

They were neither OF them bril-
liant scholars, but they liked to
move with the times as regards
their knowledge of current events,
so the daily newspaper was regular
" delivered at their humble dOrnl-
Gle, and it was Jennic's duty to read
out during breakfast time all the
most interesting items of the day.
One morning, after wading through
the latest intelligence page from the
front, she turned to another page
of the paper and said:
'Herbie, it says here that anoth-
er octogenarian's dead"
"What's an octogeuarian"
"Well, / don't quite know what
they are, but they must be very
sick creatures. You never hear OF
them but they're dying" Scottish

Another chapter in the legisla-
tive Investigations and corrup-
ton charges with which Charles
ton re-echoed during the session
of the legislature in the city sew
eral months ago, was enacted in
Parkersburg yesterday. Judge
Dayton obyiated any. possibility
of District Attorney Blizzard or
Senator Caldwell appearing be-
fore the legislative investigation
committee to testify in the Gov
ernor White investigation, by dis
charging these two gentlemen
from the custody of the court.
The States attorney, Ex-Governor
MacCorkle, will appeal the case
to the United States Supreme
court.
It will be remembered that in
the course of the senate's delib-
erations in the capitol city last
February, Senator Charles Cald-
well, in a lengthy Grafton, made
certain charges of malfeasance
in office against Ex-Governor
White, who was then Governor OF
the State. He stated in the
course of his remarks that Gov
ernor White had divided fees
with the secretary of state, to-
gether with other allegations. In
the legislative investigation which
followed the charges, Caldwell ap-
peared before the investigation
committe and withdrew his re-
marks, and said he had no testi-
mony to substantiate the charges
made in his speech before the SEN
ate.
Before the adjournment of the
legislature Governor White sent
a message to the house of dele
gates demanding a full investiga-
ton Of the charges by that body
after adjournment, and requested
that if he be not found guilty,
that he be exonorated Of the char
ges. His request was granted
and a committee appointed to sit
