Governor Asked to Snow Cause.

Counsel for j. 3. Wylie, J. NJ. Raw
linson and John Black, directors Of
the state disrensary, who were re-
moved from Office by Governor Ansei,
appeared before Justice Ira B. Jones
Of the supreme court at chambers
at Lancaster Monday, asking for a
writ Of certiorari, calling upon the
governor to show cause February 10
why the board should be removed. At
torneys for the board asked that a
full court be present to hear the mo-
ton. 1t is likely that Justice Jones
will call in his associates to hear the
case.
Following their removal by the gov
ernor, the three directors will be pros
ecuted in the criminal courts. Attoi>
ney General Lyon has announced that
he will institute the proceedings
The three men were charged with
misconduct, neglect Of duty and in
competency, the specific charges being
that these officers disregarded the
law, did not buy Oh sealed bids and
approved large purchases in Cinc;n.
natl and Peoria at prices in excess of
the regular bids.
It is also charged that they disre'
earded the wishes of the commission
or and the county dispensers piled
up hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of unstable liquor.
The legislature unanimously endors-
ed the governors action in removing
the directors from Office.

negro Dlockader Of the Dark Corner
section. of Greenv;!le county, has been
jailed in Greenville by Deputy Mar
stlal Gordon. He is the father of Doyle
jackson, who is now serving life
sentence for killing man year or
more ago.
The deputy, in talking of Jackson's S
arrest, said it was strange how few
negro blockaders there were; that
negroes as rule preferred to sell
the stuff after it was made, but had
something of superstiiious dread Of
having hand in making it. in sup
port OF this theory the marshal point-
ed out that in his experience, cover
ing twelve years, he had arrested only
four negroes for running illicit dis
til,cries. There are negro helpers at
the stills, of course, but few negro
rroprietors.
