HOUSE GETS RESPITE
He Will Not Be Called to Testify Till
After January 4.

The call for the Spanish inquisition of
Jay e. House, the Topeka newspaper
man is being held up or delayed. 1t
will not be held until after the Arst of
the year. But the fault is not with
Attorney General Dawson, who was
recently ordered by the supreme court
to obey the governors mandate and
summon Mr.. House, but with the gov
ernor himself. The governor wanted
Hous subpoenated, the worst way. So
bad. in fact, that he went to the SUI
preme court, when Dawson declined to
subpoena him. Now Mr. Dawson is
ready and anxious to hale Mr.. House
before the courts of law, but the gov
ernor is delaying the game.
The governor wants one Trickett,
Kansas City attorney, to interrogate
Mr.. House. But this man Trickett
is busy in the federal court with the
million dollar drainage suit from Wy
andotte and cannot take part in the
ceremonies. Dawson, after a Conference
with the governor, and at the chief
executives suggestion. went to see
Trickett and find out when he could
conduct this inquisition for the attor-
ney general. Trickett was busy and
cannot get away for d week or two. So
the House ipquisition will have to await
Mr. Trickett's convenience.
1t will probably be a week or two
before Tric1ett can get away from the
federal court. The attorney general is
not to be trusted with this inquisition.
He will have to wait to gain Mr.. Trick
ett's services before he can act. Trick
EFT ought 10 have been attorney gen
eral. not Dawson. The people made a
mistake last year in their selection of
this official The governor has so in
dicated when he held up the House
inquisition fer Friekett after the attor-
ney general had signified he was ready
to proceed.
Patience, Mr. House will be tortured
in due tine-next year.
