CANNOT ESCORT INSANE ONES
Ruling That Sheriffs Are Barred
as Guards

When the supreme court handed
down it's famous decision in the Es-
Their Mitchell Creffield case declaring
the law providing for the deportation
of the nonresident insane without the
boundaries of the state, null and void,
he deprived the county sheriffs of the
state of another perquisite and gave
to the board of control a monopoly
in the transportation of state wards.
Based on the above premises Assist
ant Attorney General FalknOr ad
vised the state board of control that
it would not be warranted in authoriZ-
expenses incurred in the deportation
of nom resident insane.
1t was on other grounds. however
that the board of control was asking
an opinion. Regardless of the supreme
court decision the superior courts of
the state have. according to the board
communication, been sending the
nonresident insane out of the state
and directing the sheriff of the coun-
ty to accompany them.
The boards letter to the attorney
general says:
1.-The superior courts of the several
counties very frequently order nom
resident insane persons returned to
their homes as provided for in chapter
1873, page 253, session laws of 1905
which law provides as follows: The
sheriff of the county shall convey
such person to the place where he be-
longs and shall charge the same fees
for such services as he is now al
lowed by the law for the Transport
tation of the patient to the hospital
for insane, which shall be paid out of
the state treasury
The bills are always sent to this
office for payment and have hereto
fore been paid out of the transporta-
ton fund which was appropriated for
returning the recovered natients to
their homes. But the last legislature
cut this out and as we have onlv the
regular funds at our authority to pay
these bills and we are also in doubt
as to the authority of the sheriff to
transport these patients as the law
placing the transportation of insane I'M
der the board of control, in our opin-
ion nullifies this act. We have no OBJ
lection to the sheriff doing this work
where it is done as cheaply as our
travelling attendants can perform the
same labor but we want TO know that
We are right in paying the bills"
Mr.. Falknor replied:
The act referred to above was held
nugatory and void in the case of
State ex rel Macintosh, prosecuting
attorney, VS.. Superior Court of King
county, SO Pacific, 2O7. The board of
control would therefore not he war
ranted in authorizing the payment of
any sheriff's fees or expenses incurred
by virtue of its provisions"

ELoPEMENT ENDED IN COURT.
Youthful Pair Fled From Pennsylva-

NEW YORK June 7.-Maurice Levi, aged
nineteen, of East Pittsburg. Pa, and Vio-
letta F,irfoldy, aged seventeen, of Rankin

terday as clippers. Levi told Magistrate
Whiteman that he and the girl came to New
York May % to be married They had been
sweethearts for year, and while there was
no objection on the part of the girls par
ents Violetta's father had insisted that
they wait year before being married. This
was more than the young lovers were WILL
ing to do, so they eloped to Baltimore
Learning that they were followed, they
came to New York to get married
why have you waited so long?" asked
the magistrate.
I'VE did not know how to go about It,
hand. I'VE were green. and / did not
know where to get license"
you did wrong in taking this girl away
from her home" said the magistrate stern
ly. you broke the law in doing So"
This was evidently a new phase of the
situation to the couple troubled look
came over Lewis face. Violetta threw her
arms around her sweethearts neck and be-
gan to cry.
81 tell you what judge Levi said finally,
Suppose you marry us right now? We
would have been married in Baltimore had
I been able to connect with some Of my
friends there"
II can't marry you. because you are both
under age" the judge said. You will have
to get the consent of your parents first"
Magistrate Whiteman then turned the girl
over to the probation officer and allowed
Levi to go.

FOR DIRECT NOMINATIONS.
Senate Tries to Thwart the Governor
by Passing the Gilchrist Bill.

ALBANY, June 1.-THE old guard Of the
senate Is to hear from Gov. Hughes again
and in unmistakable way. Yesterday,
figuratively speaking, they tried to hand
him lemon. 1t was believed that before
the day was over the governor was heard
from. While directly he was not indi-
rectly he was, and the old guard will back
| and fill again as usual. They tried to take
refuge behind Senator Gilchrist's direct
primary nominations bill, but in order to,
In a measure, show the governor that they
were giving him the legislation he desired ;
unfortunately for them it is known that
Gov. Hughes doesn't want Senator Gil
christs bill, but he does very much want
the Travis-G Green direct nominations bill,
and there isn't a doubt but that he will
get it, although the senate substituted the
Gilchrist bill for the Travis bill
The TravisGreen measure provides for
direct nominations in the entire state and
is permissve measure. The Gilchrist bill
is mandatory and is only for New York
and Kings counties. The old guard are
satisfied to give bill of this kind to these
two counties SO long they don't have to
face the proba bilities of their counties
pettioning the county committees to have
direct nominations. The constitution Of the
state now provides that direct nominations
can be had but in order to secure them an
act of the legislature is necessary. The
old guard is opposed to any change that
would permit the voters of their districts
saying directly who they would nominate
for the different offices.

whence they were to go to their old home
In Italy. Some of the children are Amer

tives they are.
When Domenico started to help his wife
up the steerage gangway she became hys-
terical. She said she feared to make the
ocean trip. Her husband caught her in
his arms and tried to carry her aboard
She broke away from him and made for
the side Of the pier, apparently intending
to jump overheard. She was caught and
led up the pier. For a time she seemed to
have mastered her emotion. Then she
grabbed her youngest child, American
born. and ran toward the street end of the
pier.
