following suggestion as to what might
be done TO raise the salary: I'm view
Of the uncertainty or doubt existing
AS TO whether the language, AN off
Ger of the executive department. as
used in Section 1873 OF the Constitution
only applies to the officers mentioned
in Article V of the Constitution, under
the head Of executive department. or
whether IL applies TO all executive
officers, L take the liberty OF suggest
Ing That the following course be pur-
sued. namely, that the Legislature
shall appropriate the sum OF $4,000
to pay the salary of the Commissioners
OF Agriculture and immigration. az
now provided by law, for the years
1917 and 1913. and then let the appro-
priation bill provide for an additional
sum OF 800 year for 1912 and 1913
as an Increase OF his salary, and il
the matter liz submitted to the courts
and 1t is held that the increase OF the
saiary is unconstitutional and conac-
qucntly invalid. then the appropriation
OF S2,soo annually would remain in full
iorce, but II the appropriation s i'm
a lump sum OF $500. and the courts
should hold II unconstitutional, then a
serious doubt might arise as to
whether the commissioner couiG re-
ceive the salary of $4,000 under the
law III that shape, and for this reason
suggest the course above indicated
III order to remove any possible doubt
OH the subject"
However. the Legislature either
thought the Attorney General was mis-
taken, or else was willing to take a
chance OH the constitutional point, for
II raised the salary and did not adopt
his precaution.

IK0|NER'SESALARY
May NOT Be LEGAL
Attorney General in Doubt When
Sum Was Increased During
Term of Office.
SUGGESTION WAS NOT Needed
Legislature Imperiled Even Old
Salary, iii Judge Williams's
Opinion.

In the annual report OF Attorney
General Samuel w. Williams, made
public yesterday. there appears an in
teresting and hitherto unpublished
opinion as to whether or not the action
of the last Legislature In Increasing
Tho salary OF the Commissioner OF
Agriculture was in conflict with the
Constitution The Attorney General
himself was involved in great doubt
on the subject, 80 mulch so that he
advised that the additional $500 81 year
voted Mr.. Koiner during Ills term of
once be appropriated separately, SO
That If tho matter was tested in the
courts and the increase deemed uncon-
stltutlonai. he would still have his old
salary OF $500.
However. the Legislature apparently,
paid no attention to this decision of
the Attorney-Gcneral, for 1T increased
Inc commissioners salary to $500
without making separate Item OF
he added sum This would, under
Judge Williams's ruling. make IL
doubtful whether MIR. Koiner now
legally draws any part of H.. even the
former $4,000.
Governor Asked for RuIing.
On March I, 1872 Governor Mann
wrote the Attorney General. calling
his attention to the fact that in the
then pending general appropriation
bill IT was proposed TO increase the
salaries OF the Commissioner OF AKri-
culture, tie Commissioner of Labor
aud tile Superintendent OF Public
Printing. The Governor asked IL this
was in conflict with Section SO of the
Constitution. which provides: "rhe
salary of each officer of the executive
department.. except In those cases
where the salary is determined by this
Constitution, shall be liked by law; and
the salary of no such officer shall be
Increased or diminished during the
term for which lie shall have been
elected or appointed"
In the cases of Commissioner Doher-
ty and Superintendent Bottom, who
received increases from $4,000 20 $4,000
each the year, the Attorney General
held that their new terms were Just
beginning on March, OF last year and
t'iat any amount prescribed By the
legislature would be skiing, and not
either raising or lowering their sal
aries, since ueithcr would have or re-
ceive any salary at AL until it was APP

as ITO by Hans Egade, who has be

RUDE. MARoUARD TO MARRY
Takes Out License to Wed Blossom
Seeley, His Partner In Vaudeville.

San Francisco, March 11-Rube
Marquard, the New York pitcher,
and Miss Blossom Seeley, who have
been playing an engagement in vau-
deylle at a local theatre today, took
out marriage license. 1t is rumor-
ed that this will be Marquard's final
week in vaudeville, and that he will
leave in few days for Marlin to
join the other New York players.
Marquard and Miss Seeley nave
been partners in vaudeville since a
few weeks after the close of the 1912
season Their sketch is entitled
Nineteen Straight referring to the
record run of victories which Mar
guard made last season before suf-
fering his first defeat. At the time
the vaudeville tour was started,
Miss Seeley was the wife of Joseph
Cahan who has since obtained a di-
vorce from the actress, who declined
TO contest the suit An escapade at
Atlantic City, which brought the yau-
deyille partners considerable under
sirable notoriety was the basis for
the separation. Cahan named Mar
guard as correspondent, and the pit
cher is now being sued for damages.
Shortly after the divorce was grant-
