decision WAS one of the most sweeping
in which d state official was ever in
volved
In effect the court decided that the
bills allowed by George DobSon as sec
rotary of state We're overcharges, that
both Dobson and Young knew the law
and tina, they must have known that
they We're violating the law, that there
was no possible excuse for tho taking
of thousands of dollars from the state
under such pretenses, that the money
still belongs to the public though
wrongfully transferred to another. and
that there is no estoppel because one
official audited bills which he knew to
be wrong.
1t will stand everlastingly to the cred
it OF A. III. Dawson, present secretary
OF the state executive council, that he
kept at it until the state is now In a
position to get back the wrongfully
converted money. Mr.. Dawson had
great deal more to do with it than APP
pears on the surface. 1t will be recalled
that it Sas after an examination by
an expert. Mr.. Skinner, that the facts
of the overcharge We're disclosed. Mr.
Skinner counseled with Mr.. Dawson at
all times and in fact they worked to-
gether lit will also be remembered
that it was Governor Shaw who sought
to discredit the Skinner report and
llllstllS IOICed MN W dIIeIlu tue report
in many ways. but not until the facts
became public, and these facts formed
the basis of the suit.
The suit was prosecuted under d.
rection of the state executive council.
In the lower court the judge virtually
held that the payment of the bills pre-
sented was an estoppel from recovery.
This view Is held to be erroneous by
the supreme court. The supreme court
decision shows, in fact, that the trial
in the lower court was a good deal of
Il farce. and that the court apparently
was biased against the state
The case now goes back to the court
for Il second trial on its merits. 1t is
more probable. however, that settle
mont Will be made.

viii visit the counties in that end
OF the state to learn the political sit
uation and how he stands. The
northern and eastern counties are
said to be Scherr's strongholds and
by his popularity in the sections re-
ferred 10 he hopes TO have a practi-
cally unbroken delegation for him in
the state convention. His friends also
claim he will be strong in the south-
ern counties. 1t is evident that
Scherr has divided what has here
tofore been known as the admins
tration forces. as already a number
OF them have come out as support-
ers of Scherr, and are predicting his
nomination by a large majority.
Scherr Is just beginning his cam
paign, while Swisher has been busy
since the close of the last legislature
and up to the present has had the
field all to himself without a con-
test there is no real politics and as
there has been no contest up TO the
present time politics will only be-
gin.
