CAN GOVERNOR VETO BILL?
ATTORNEYS RAISE POINT THAT
EXECUTIVE HAS NOTING TO
DO WITH CAPITAL ACT.
Should They Be Correct Governor
Mead Is Relieved of an Embar-
RAISING Situation.

Does the governor have the power
of veto of the capitol removal bill?'
This question has been raised by
attorneys, and it would play an i'm
portant part in the capital fight if the
question were to be answered in the
negative, is the story that comes
from the state capital.
In Olympia, as elsewhere, it IS
declared the governor stands ready
him to act upon the measure. No di-
rect promise has been made publicly
by the governor, but every straw in
dicates the trend of gubernatorial SEN
timent in opposition to removal.
In an indirect way comes the story
that the governor within the past few
days has convinced himself that he
has nothing to do with the bill unless
it be to turn the measure over to the
secretary of state for filing. If he
should be right in this connection. it
would relieve him of an embarrassing
position.
1t was Seattle attorney who,
examining the constitution, found the
provision that seems to indicate
that the governors action is not need
ed in the capital removal legislation.
The matter has been submitted to at
least one other attorney and he sees
it in the same light.
The constitution provides that the
legislature shall submit the question
of capitol removal. It doesn't even
specify that it shall be done by a bill.
In treating amendments to the consti-
tuition the governors signature is not
necessary, and amendments are filed
directly with the secretary of state.
Those who made the capital removal
bill. The const tuition says that the
governor shall sign all bills, though
amendment proposed by bills do not
require his signature.
1t is asserted that the removal ques-
ton could have been submitted by
joint resolution, for the constitution
doesn't say it shall be passed by a bill.
1t is likely, though, that if a joint res
olution were to be passed the secre-
tary of state would hesitate about
till a judicial determination of the
question had been given. The reso-
luton might be attempted if the gov
ernor steps in and vetoes the capital
bill, but that is a mere matter of spec
ulation.

Reilly Wants Another Go.

Jack Reilly has thought better of
his declaration that he would never
engage in another ring contest and
already negotiations are on for an
other match between himself and
Jerry Mccarthy. Harry Green the
Spokane gambler has posted 800 as
Reilly can defeat Mccarthy and Nc
Carthy's friends have covered the
money. Green stipulates that Reilly
be trained by Miles McNally. If the
match goes through Reilly and Nc
Carthy will probably fight before the
Spokane Athletic club.
