the Supreme Court.
That would be to put a premium on
efforts OF divorce judgment debtors to keep
themselves concealed" is the way the jus
ticee view the matter in their ruling.
The opinion was brought about through
an appeal taken by lawyers for Clara 3.
Gum, who secured a final decree Of divorce
AGAINST Arthur S. Gum on May ID. 1900.
The decree required Gum TO pay his wife
so o week alimony.
Service OF notice to this Judgment was
not made until January 7 OF this year
nearly eight months after the granting OF
the decree. With the Judgment a demand
for $3.50 accrued alimouy was served IN
Gum, He refused TO pay and q motion for
his commitment for contempt was made.
The lower court denied the motion, ruling
that the failure TO pay alinnopy accrued
before the service could mot be made the
basis for contempt proceeding. The APP
pellste Division reversed this ruling.

GOVERNOR ON
SIGNING BILLS.

TRENTON, Mar. 26:-Relative TO
the concurrent resolution passed by
the house last week, concerning the
date of the final adjournment of the
legislative session, Governor Stokes
sent to both houses last night the fol-
lowing special message:
"My attention has been called TO a
concurrent resolution suggesting that
the legislature shall not adjourn sine
die until all bills passed shall have
been in my hands at least five days.
MY views upon the relations be-
tween the executive and the legisla-
ture have been so often expressed
that it is unnecessary for me to say
that | do not regard it as within my
province to suggest to the members
thereof how their business shall be
conducted. Where. however, legis-
lative action affects the performance
of the duties imposed by the consti-
tuition upon the executive, l feel free
to consult with you for our mutual
convenience.
THE legislature has now been in
session eleven weeks. In that time I
have received ten bills, all of which
hav been disposed of within the limits
allowed me by the constitution. / am
perfectly willing to give more than
the usual number of hours regarded
as a working day to the consideration
of all measures passed by our body. l
cannot, however, perform physical
impossibilities. Last year at the close
of the session l received from the
legislature about 260 bills. The in
telligent reading of these bills requir-
ed a month at least, working every
day, to which must be added time
necessary for the consideration of
titles and the effect of the measure
upon the laws already upon the stat
ute books. To this again must be
added time required for consideration
as to the general effect of their pro-
visions and the time taken for hear
ings, which under IL form of govern
ment | consider is the right of every
interested citizen. You can readily
see how impossible it would be to
properly consider a large number of
bills within five days.
Should the legislature see fit to
place in my hands the practical ag-
gregate result of their sessions de-
alterations as has been the custom
heretofore and then adjourn to meet
in five days,I should of course do my
utmost to give proper consideration
to as many of the measures as ] could
within that time. Such measures as
l had been unable to consider at the
expiration of that period, | should be
compelled to return to you without
my approval. | could not, as see
my duty, either sign my name to I'M
considered bills, or permit them to
become laws by default. | would sug-
gest, therefore, that If the legislature
wants to preserve its right to consid-
ervetoes, it make arrangement that
will enable the executive and the law
making body to work together with
mutual convenience to this end.
