At last the Legislature has decided
to investigate the executive contin-
gent fund, about which there has
been 50 much talk.
Representative Adair opened the
ball in the House this week bv the
introduction of a resolution, with a
preamble reciting the fact that Elk
Gov. Vardaman had failed to make
an accounting of the expenditure of
said found during the four years of
of his administration, as required
by law, section 237f, code 1906,
which says that "The executive
contingent fund shall be expended
under direction of the Governor and
be accounted for by him to the
Legislature at each session. There
fore. the said GAS. K. Vardaman is
requested to make at once full de-

a good man; others wanted action
postponed, while others had some
thing to say about irresponsible
newspaper reports, and read I
"screed" from Polk Talbert, who

county, offered an amendment
which was adopted, providing TO
"the Joint Committee on Contingen
Expenses to examine into and in

Immediately proceeding this date
and report to the House and Senat
their findings giving a detaile'
statement of such funds"
The object of this was to coupl
two years of Noel's administratio
with the four Of Vardaman's in th
investigation, in order to smoot
and soften down matters a bit, an

in reality every man knows it wa
