Another very curious and lamenta-
BILE circumstance is that none of these
important executive officers are Civ
en- any power Of appointment. Their
control of subordinates will be pre-
scribed by the legislature.
The governor is given the veto
power, also the appointment of a
bank commissioner. Beyond that he
has no more executive authority than
has the governor of Rhode Island
that is to say, none at all.
That the chief executive should
thus be left helpless is quite unac-
countable, unless it be that the usur-
pations and tyrannies of the govern
ors Of adjacent States, Colorado and
Idaho, caused the Democratic major
ity in the constitutional convention
to rush to the opposite and far more
dangerous extreme Of leaving the
powers of the executive to the mercy
Of the Legislature.
