RADIO STATE FOOD CON-
MISSIONER.
IS CALLED AN USURPER
COMPLAINT ALLEGES THERE is
NO PROVISION IN LAW FOR
SUCH AN OFFICER.

Denver-That Wilbur F. Cannon,
state rood commissioner, is an usurper
Ia office; that he was never elected
on in the capacity Illegally, are among
the allegations made by DR.. Paul s.
Hunter in an action begun in the Dis
trict Court directed against Ready
Kenehan a. auditor of state, to re-
strain that official from issuing any
voucher or proceeding in any other
manner to authorize payment to Can
non for her services DIR. Hunter brings
the suit in the name of the people Of
the state OF Colorado and for himself
personally.
This Is the third attempt made to
GUST Cannon from office. The state
board of medical examiners were first
appealed to to remove Cannon. The
board declined to take any action.
Governor Shafroth was next requested
to proceed in the matter and he re-
fused to do SO. The suit is the new
est procedure. and it is believed by
those back of the action that the
stoppage of his salary will result in
Cannon relinquishing the office.
The papers filed in the case set
forth that the state board of health has
an executive committee from among
its members, which committee appoint
ed Cannon. The latter was not mem
Der OF the board nor of the executive
committee when the appointment was
made. it is alleged. 1t is asserted that
there is no provision for the appoint
ment of commissioner of the food
department" II is further asserted
that by virtue OF this appointment.
Cannon has been acting unlawfully as
such commissioner and drawing a sal
airy and allowed certain personal ex-
penses. all OF which are said tobe illegal.
That Cannon has no right to the title
of pure food commissioner. or pure
food inspector. is also alleged.
The complaint further alleges that
Cannon has sent In his bills for sala-
ries and expenses and that the same
have been honored by Auditor Kene-
han as they have been presented. In
this connection it is averred that Can
non has drawn s2.2s3.32 as salary and
1910 as expenses.

to amend the interstate commerce
laws to regulate the issuance of in

Mexico on the road to statehood. and
to validate the Withdrawals of public
lands for conservation purposes. is re-
garded as quite possible for attain
ment. Most of these measures. it is
believed. can be put through the Sen
ate while the House is wrestling with
appropriation bills.
When 1t was reported at the capitol
Sunday that the President would be
satisfied with the enactment of the
four measures named. steps were
taken to bring all these matters out OF
committee at the earliest possible
date. The postal savings bank bill
already is before the Senate and an
agreement between the supporters OF
conflicting amendments is assured. 1t
is regarded as practically certain that
the bill can be passed during the COM
ing week.
The one conservation bill that Pres
ident Taft Is determined shall be
passed is that which gives to the Pres
ident unrestricted power to withdraw
public lands from settlement and place
them In reserves In the meantime
an effort will be made by a special
committee Of western senators to per-
feet other conservation measures SO
