ORGIES WILL NOT
BE INVESTIGATED

The newspapers which have been
charged with eNaggerating the facts con
cerning the scenes attending the closing
Of the Legislature, will not have an OPP
portunity to probe the truth Of the
published articles, as Governor Fort has
dismissed the matter from his atten-
ton This was done i'll a statement
given out in which he intimates that
there may be something doing at neNt
falls election.
His statement follows:
Il have not made. and do not in
tend to make any reply to the letter
of Speaker Ward No action will le
taken by me as to the alleged occurr
ences on the last night of the legislative
session. The incident has been fully eX
plotted in the papers. The character of
the episode WAS not such as TO warrant
the Governor in resorting to a call for
an extraordinary session of the Legis-
lature Only indisereet, or at most,
questionable conduct, is alleged; no
crime is charged. The information that
las come to the Executive as to Whit
did take place is very meagre, and not
at all definite.
IF the incident shall result in abolish
ing the all-night session in the future,
| it will have accomplished much good.
The people will know where to place
responsibility, and they may be trusted
To do So"
The dismissal of the matter by the
Governor means that there will be no
investigation at ALT because it WAS
plainly evident that Speaker Ward does
not want such, and he shifted the re-
sponsibility to the Governor, who threw
| it back to the Speaker, and to which
the Speaker replied telling thS Governor
to call an extra session of the Legisla-
ture for such purpose.

The plaintiff shipped several valuable

result that they were badly injured when

$1,000 IS ASKED FOR
Board Of Education Make Estimates That
- Do Not Suit Taxpayers

The Young Mems Republican Club
has gone OH record the first opportun-
itv the organization has had to mix up
in local affairs that concern each and
every taxpayer, and if one is to judge
the result of this Friday (April 29l
evenings ratification meeting by the
vi-or displayed at the Clubs last meet
inc, there will be something doing that
will give Il set back to the Board ot
Education's approximate list of ap-
preparations.
The Club stands pat almost to man
on the following resolution, which as
the reader will note, cuts down the
Boards set of figures enough to spend
some money all around and then have
a few dollars to blow in another direc
tion.
1t is generally conceded that $1,000
is not too much pay for medical in
spector of the schools, if he complies
With the State law, but on the other
hand, few men believe that the Board
OF Education will be able to get ply
fsican who will inspect as often as the
/ law requires. Assuming this deduction
ol conditions to be correct, the Young
ARcpublicans do not favor an appropria
Jon of the maximum sum-$l000, but
half. If this is found insufficient
Y1hc salary can be increased at any time,
