Ekern Denied His Rights.

The decision holds that Ekern was
denied his rights in the hearing be-
fore the governor that no offense was
charged in the complaint because the
election laws and the corrupt prac-
tice act do not apply to candidates
for speakers; and that the governor
was therefore without Jurisdiction
Saying that the governor, acting
within the scope of his duties, could
not be restrained, the court adds:
"And when he steps aside from
the sphere of his duty, and violates
the law, he is amenable to the law
the same as any other person"
Governor Subject to Court.
The court expresses its apprecia-
ton of the Difference it owes to the
coordinate executive department, but
adds that it must not go so far as to
cast any doubt upon its own author
ity to deal with all judicial ques-
tions, regardless of whether it may
be necessary to call in question some
act of the governor.

EKERRN UPHELD BY
SUPREME COURT
DECISION HOLDS INSURANCE
COMMISSIONER ILLEGALLY
REMOVED BY GOVERNOR.
TWO JURIsTS in DlSSENSION
Chief Justice WinsIow and Justice
Barnes Do Not Agree with Majority
Opinion That Gov. McGovern Elk
ceeded HIS Authority.

Madison.-A decision rendered by
the Wisconsin supreme court holds
that Insurance Commissioner Herman
l.. Ekern was Illegally removed from
office when Gov. McGovern issued the
order against him on the ground of
political activity in supporting the as
sembly speakership candidate who op-
posed the governor
The decision, handed down by JUS
tice Marshall, is majority opinion of
the court, Chief Justice Winslow and
Justice Barnes dissenting.
The court holds that at the time the
custer proceedings were started, Elk
ern was commissioner in fact and in
law, and that he is so now, and it di-
reefs that Ekern be so recognized
The decision is complete, holding
that an injunction was the proper
proceeding to try the case, and that
there is no ground upon which suit
in Guowarranto or any other legal
action may be brought in an attempt
to GUST Ekern.
Inc courts CONCLUSIONS.
The court reverses the order of
Judge Stevens of the circuit court,
with directions to enter judgment for
the plaintiff on the following
grounds:
Under the jurisdictional requi-
sites stated the supreme court found
that the governor committed the fol-
lowing jurisdictional errors:
Il. No sufficient notice of the
hearing was granted.
%. The cause assigned for the re-
moval was not within the statute.
IS. Fair opportunity was not af-
forded Mr.. Ekern to present his case.
a. The evidence produced, in no
fair view of it, made a case against
Mr.. Ekern within the statute"
For these reasons the court issues
the following mandate:
'The facts upon which the deci-
sion is grounded as to the governor S
jurisdiction to make the order of re-
moval is undisputed and indi5put-
able. Therefore it would be 2 use
less delay in the administration OF
justice to remand this case for any
less purpose than speedy termina-
ton of the litigation by judgment OF
the merits according to the prayer
of the complainant, and as germane
thereto that at the time of the com
mencement of this action appellant
was de jure commissioner of insur-
ance."

The Man Who Died for Me"-Ser-
mon BY Rev. Walter G. Mcneil.

The union evangelistic service for
this evening will be held in the Luth-
eran Church, Francis street, near
State Circle, at O'Clock. Rev. Wal
ter G. Mcneil will preach on the sub

The present weeks meetings will
conclude the series of services in
which the congregations of the Luth-
eIan, Presbyterian, Baptist and the
two Methodist churches of the city
have been engaged for four successive
weeks. The spirit of unity and CO.
operation has characterized the move
ment from the beginning.
The meetings had their beginning
in the observance of the Week of
Prayer, in which custom the evan
gelical churches of the community
have united for a number of years
As the services of this first week
went on the pastors felt that the tim
was propituous for a series of meet
,ngs with a distinct evangelistic pur-
pose, and such an undertaking was
entered upon with enthusiasm.
Throughout the three weeks in
which the cooperating churches have
been engaged In the campaign. large
congregations have been in attend
ance. The pastors of the churches
have preached the sermons in turn,
and the attention has been most
marked The results of this long
series of meetings have been pleasing
to the leaders in the movement. On
every hand are heard words testify
ing to benefit received through at
tendance upon the meetings. The
effect upon the community will
doubtless prove lasting!
The final meeting of the saries
will be held tomorrow evening in
the First Methodist Church. Rev.
George S. Bell will preach the SER
mon.

BEWARE ALL YE MERCHANTS
Pure Food aud Drugs Inspector in
Town and He'll Get You if You
Don't Watch Out

Business places of the city, or at
least those of the merchants who dis
pense foods and drugs. are today be-
ing inspected by an official inspector,
employed by the State Board of
Health, in line with the measure to
enforce the provisions of the Pure
Food and Drugs Act in Maryland.
The official is making the rounds
of all grocery and drug stores, as well
as confectionery emporiums and sa-
looms, and is empowered to throw
into the garbage or waste pipes all
goods not properly labeled or which
do not conform to the provisions Of
the law.
Misbranded or adulterated goods
are among the things which the in
spector will discard. Protest from
the proprietors of establishments
count for naught, when the goods are
not of the legal order. As far as the
saloons are concerned. absinthe is
one of the liquors against which the
ban is laid by the law, and it is
known that several of the saloons
suffered the loss of several quarts or
more of this Intoxicating fluid.
Under the law the sale of this iu-
toxicant, or drug, is absolutely pro-
hibted after January l, 1918. SJme
of the dealers, it is said, were un-
aware of this provision, and were,
therefore unknowingly violating the
law by having the goods on their
premises. The Inspector, it is said,
promptly empties every receptacle
found to contain the drink, though
under the circumstances no penalty
is laid against the proprietors.

stitch has arrested disintegration
and has made the flags good and
strong for all time.
The work, so altogether patriotic,
must lave inspired patriotism in the
workers, AMI has certainly empha-
sized the fact that fabric work is
coming to the front. OF the zoo
flags or more catalogued at the
Naval Academy there are several
different sets. The Vandalia set is
of special interest to Captain Glib
bons, now Superintendent of the
Naval Academy, as he was in com
mand of the Vandalia. The Korean
set is among the most interesting of
the flags restored by Mrs. Fowler.
There are thirty flags in this set.
Some pictures of the flags were taken
under the direction of Commander
w. G. Cole. and one of these, show.
Mr.. Hugh Purvis, armorer, U. s. n,
who captured one of these Corean
flags, but that is another interesting
story
Prof. Arthur Newton Brown, H.
brarian of the Naval Academy, has
catalogued all the old flags, which,
since their renovation bv Mrs. Fow-
Ter, are being recatalogued by Mr.. H
=. Washburn, of che Department of
English &C the Naval Academy. In
the great collection there are three
unknown flags. One is the "S14
flag, blue flag with red border.
measuring feet inches square,
with only the figures "Sl4" in CEN
ire. Another of the unknown flags is
the 0ndiaka, a white burgee with
black Letters in centre. The flag
measures 10 feet by 8 inches.
Still another of the unknown flags
is what is known as the "House
Flag" Or flag usually carried by g
merchant ship. The colors of this
flag are wonderful. These three un-
known flags at the Naval Acads my
would give the Peggy Stewart Tea
Party Chapter, d. A. r., some good
work along their line in tracing the
history of these flags, or the Balti-
more Chapter. a Chapter that has
done sc much good work along his
toric lines, might alsoaccompIish this.
To Mrs. Fowler. who has brought
needleciaft to its highest perfection,
is due great credit for this stupen-
dous work, so perfectly done. and to
Governor Guild, of Massachusetts.
who considers Mrs. Fowler the "best
craftswoman in the nation, the ma
val authorities owe the discovery"
of the accomplished needlecraft ar
tist, whose artistry gains inspira-
tion by the very touch of the work
she loves for Glove" says Mrs.
Fowler is tne lever that moves the
world in all things.
While Annapolis has among its
residents such a gifted needle crafts
man who has made the work of re :
storing and preserving old flags for
all time as good as new, would it
not be wise and practical for the
State of Maryland to engage her to
preserve its old Maryland, Union and
Confederate flags, now at the State
museum and which are, like the
Naval Academy flags were (before the
touch of Mrs. Fowler restored them, }
