MANNING SEEKS
FOR ANOTHER NAN
GOVERNOR RETOKES. APPOINT
MENT. OF DIR. SARGENT.
Chief Executive Failed to Consider
Requirements Of Constitution !:
in Naming of Officer.
The State, 14th.

The State 14th.
Gov. Manning yesterday revoked the
appointment of Geo. F. Sargent, NJ. D.,
of Maryland, as superintendent of the
State hospital for the insane, to take
the place of T. ]. Strait, M. D. The
appointment was to take effect May 10.
81 wish to say to tie people of the
State that have revoked the appoint
ment of Dr.. Sargent as superintendent
because l respect the constitution and
will not even appear to evade it, said
the governor.
The Office of superintendent Of the
asylum is provided for in the State
constitution. The constitution also
provides that all appointive and cleo
tive officers shall be citizens of the
State. The constitutional objection to
the appointment OF Dr. Sargent was
raised by attorneys of Columbia in
an interview to the pres;
Gov. Manning has several names un-
der consideration and will very prob
ably announce the appointment at an
early date of a new superintendent
who will be a citizen of the State.
Gov. Manning authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
Several days ago I announced the
appointment of George F. Sargent, NJ,
D., of Maryland, as superintendent Of
the State hospital for the insane. This
action was taken after careful con
sideration and thorough search in this
and other States. I was determined to
get the best equipped man for the PC
sition, one whose experience, training
and study fitted him for this special
work.
"Since the appointment was an
nounced, tie constitutional objection
has been raised that probably only
qualified elector of this State was eli
gible, and I am frank to say that tho
objection seems potent. In asking DR..
Sargent to undertake the superin-
tendency, I had in mind only the well
fare of the patients of the institution. =
I overlooked this constitutional ques-
ton; but I stand for the constitution
and tie laws of our State, both OF
which are my guides in the conduct of
the Office hold. I wish to say to the
people of the State that have revoked
the appointment of DR.. Sargent as su-
perintendent because I respect the
constitution and will not even appear
to evade it."
