in view OF developments 1t seems to
me 10 be only just TO all parties interested
that some reason should he assigned by
me for my action In rendering these two
decisions. viz;
This being an annual and constltu-
tional convention. full power is vested IN
delegates TO remove from office any oni-
cial OF a district or 10 amend district
laws In any way deemed advisable by a
majority OF delegates.
District convention or district eXecu-
tive board has full power 20 employ coun-
sci 10 defend delegates against Injunction
proceedings.
in brief the question involved Is: Has
the regular district convention OF the
mine workers authority 10 impeach and to
remove any official OF district organiza-
tion wha has been charged with NAL
feasauce in office
The president OF the district alleges
that inasmuch he was elected by the
popular vote OF the miners OF the dis
trict he cannot be removed from office.
except by the same power. / hold that

power 10 impeach and remove from office

APPROPRIATION
BILL OPPOSED

asked why the appropriation had been
raised 800 this year
Mr.. Bliss explained that there were
now 1ls pupils at the school and that the
/ expense OF caring for them had in
! creased. The appropriation was not op-
| posed.
There was little opposition to the ap-
| propria ton Of $4,000 for the State Home
| for the Deaf.
There was lively controversy over the
| appropriation OF 1910 600 for the mainte-
nance OF the state board OF charities and
corrections. Mr.. Rattey offered an amend
| ment reducing the amount to 1926. 900.
He said he did not want to refund any
necessary money to the state institutions.
but that he did not believe the sum rec
commended by the finance committee was
necessary for the support OF the institu-
tions.
Mr. Smith explained the necessity OF
the appropriation OF the full amount ask
ed for. saying that the number OF In
mates had tendency 10 increase all the
time and the inmates were now crowded
in some of the departments
II is the purpose OF the state board OF
charities and corrections, Mr. Smith
stated. TO ask for appropriations for new
buildings before the end of the session.
FINALLY APPhovED.
Several other members spoke on the ap-
propriatlon, which was finally approved
one OF the liveliest fights OF the day
was over the appropriation OF $4,000 for
| the state board OF agriculture. Mr. Ratty
| started the ball rolling by moving TO
| strike out the appropriation.
In explanation of this motion. he said
| that the board was worse than useless.
| as IL was OF no material benef1t 10 the
| farmers and were n decided detriment 10
| the state. Cattle were brought TO them
| to be slain, he said which were not At
| TO walk. that they might be appraised
| and the state made TO pay for cattle
| which were worthless at price which
| would be fair for sound cattle.
| The speaker said he knew OF cattle that
| had been brought into the state and later
| slaughtered without the members OF the
board seeing them. He thought the board
/ should be abolished.
Mr. Money defended the board. Of
| which he is n member.
There was something OF a contest over
| the appropriation OF $4,000 for state print
| ing. which Mr. Rattey wanted TO cut
down 10 $4,000. The appropriation was ap-
proved.
There was lively fight over the ap-
| proprlation OF $4,000. which lasted until
| the house adjourned at o'clock.
