NO POWER TO VETO
SAYS GOVERNOR
Great Need of q Constitutional Con
vention Shown by Supreme
Court Decision.

Charleston, w Va, May 8.-GoV.
ernor Glasscock declared that the de-
cision of the Supreme Court which
held that the governor could not veto
any item in the appropriation bill az
ter the Legislature adjourned. showed
more plainly than anything the need
of constitutional convention.
This Interpretation OF the constitu-
ton" said the governor, places
hardship upon the executive. When
the appropriation bill is passed. at
late hour of the session, it is imposr
sible for the governor to go over il
before the legislature adjourns. Many
of the items are placed in the appro-
priatien bill with the expectation that
they will be vetoed by the governor.
The representative merely wishes to-
make himself solid with his constitu-
ents."
"But governor" said your cores
pondent, "the court declared that the
position of the chief executive wass
merely advisory"
THAT is true" said Governor Glass
cock, "but at nearly every session OF
the legislature some delegate secures
the passage of some item Of appropri-
alton on the last night Of the session.
it is passed in the hurry and excite
ment incident to the adjournment and
the governor has no opportunity to ex-
ercise his advisory power. The power
of the governor is curtailed complete
ly. The members of the legislature
do not take into consideration always
the condition of the treasury when
they vote large appropriations, while
the governor has atements from the
treasurer and auditor on his desk all
the time.
"As said in my inaugural address,
the lime is ripe for constitutional
convention, and l think this decision
of the court shows the need more
clearly than ever"

FIGHT ON SCOTT
Opposition in Southern End OF the
State Centering on Ex-Gov-
ernor Dawson.

Parkersburg, w. Va, May 12.-Sen-
ator Scott has recommended Plat Z.
Brightwell of Charleston to succeed
Charles Robinson of Fairmont as ma
tional bank examiner. Brightwell is
assistant state tank examiner under
S. V. Mathews, having held that posi-
tion since January /. He Is a son-in-
law of State Geologist I. C. White, OF
Morgantown.
A message from Charleston yester'
day reports stir caused by an inter
view by ex-State Tax Commissioner
Charles w. Dillon favoring Ex-Governor
William NJ. Dawson If he becomes a
candidate to succeed Senator Scott.
Dillon is an influential factor in the
southern part of the State, being allied
with Samuel Dixon in His political and
coal interests. Dillon was recently
turned down for United States Attor-
ney in the Southern district and the
Dixon-Dillon faction, it seems, have
decided to go after SCOTS scalp. Their
newspapers have criticised Scott since
DiHons rundown, and Harold A.
Ritz's appointment. Ritz is a protege
of the isaac T. Mann faction. They
have been calling for a Senator from
the south. and have focused their
compliments on Dawson. This is the
first against Scott The legislators
who will vote for a successor to Scott
will not be elected till November, 1910
Ex-Governor Dawson remains silent
when his candidacy is preached.

ANENT THE ORDER
OF ODD FELLOWS
Senator Davis Gives Some interesting
information When presented With
Jewel Saturday Night.

In accepting the emblem presented
to him by the Odd Fellows of the
state, Hon. Henry G. Davis, in his
speech, gave some historical facts
which will be Of interest to all Odd
Fellows.
Senator Davis said, Brother Odd
Fellows, and grand master, highly
appreciate and thank you for the hon
or conferred by presenting the jewel
which | highly valueAIt comes only
to the few Odd Fellows who have
been in good standing more than fifty
years. | am informed that only one
other has been given in West Virginia
and that one in ten thousand is the
average in the world Odd Fellow
ships aim is to do good and elevate
mankind. It's motto is Friendship,
Love and Truth" The order gives
special attention to its members who
need personal or financial aid. More
than $4,000 was paid in West Vir-
ginia last year for the relief of brotn-
ers.
In West Virginia there are 339
lodges and Iwpards of $4,000 mem
bers. The annual increase is about
ten percen-. There are in West Vir-
ginia also ninety-one Rebekah, or sis
ter lodges, with 2,518 members, whose
aim it is to do good with women in
the same way as the regular male
lodges. The Odd Fellows home near
this town, costing when completed,
about one undred thousand dollars,
intended to take care of needy Odd
Fellows, their widows and orphans, is
a good example of what is being done
BY the order.
THE first Odd Fellows lodge in
America was organized in Baltimore
in 1919 by Thomas Weldly, an Eng
lishman by birth, and was, named
Washinton Lodge No. l. Soon after
wards lodges were created in Phila-
delphia, New York and other cities.
In 1926. the grand lodge of the United
States was established in Baltimore
and Welaiy was made sovereign
grand master, and continued to hold
the Office until his death in 1861
Baltimore is the home of Odd Fellow
ship in the United States; the SOW
ereign grand lodge was created there
and Is still there. A monument has
been erected to Weldly in that city,
also one over his grave in Green
Mount, nearby.
In the world there are about two
million Odd Fellows, majority of
whom are in the United States, The
amount paid annually by menNers of
the order, for relief OF members In
need is between five and six million
dollars. The Rebekahs, or sister
lodge hos between five and six hun
dred thousand members.
i appreciate and thank the grand
master, the sovereign grand chaplain
and judge Dayton for their personal
and complimentary remarks. Refer
ring again to the jewel, which has
been presented to me on behalf of
Randolph lodge, highly appreciate
the honor conferred and most heartily
thank all the members. ! have been
an Odd Fellow for sixty-four years.
hope and expect to live so that when
am no more, you can truthfully say
Davis was good, worthy and upright
man. - 9f.t
