WAsHINGToN. April l6--The Inter-
state Commerce Commission announced
to-day that it had discontinued it's in
vestigation into the telephone and tele-
sraph companies. This announcement
removes the last menace of interference

panles.
The action of the commission is re-
garded as another indication OF what
appears to be policy OF conservatism
on the part OF the commission. This
policy has been shown in several ways
since the commission permitted the
Eastern carriers to make a . per cent.
increase In freight rates in January
last
The commission now admits that its
jurisdiction over telegraph and tele-
phone coiApanles IL limited This seems
to represent totally different view
from that Of two years ago. when the
commission entered on Its dragnet In

In the meantime Gen. Lavaga,

upon their wing and the advances
OF our infantry upon the front and

last January l took an oath to pre-.
serve, protect and defend the consti-
tuition of this state and Of the United
States. The constitution confers, upon
the supreme court the duty of deter
mining the constitutionality of acts OF
the legislature
Section S41 of the code reads: Any
constable, deputy constable, sheriff or
magistrate who shall neglect or refuse
to perform the duties required by this
chapter shall be subject to suspension
by the governor.
Acting under this provision sus-
pended the sheriff of Kershaw county
for neglect of duty. The supreme court
has held that section S41 of the code is
unconstitutional in so far as it relates
to the Office of sheriff, and 1 shall do
what l expect every other citizen to
do, whether as an official or private
individual, to respect the decisions OF
the supreme court and to obey its de-
crees without question" l."

otherwise, We would have an Office
and an officer, but no one to discharge
the duties of the Office, to the great in
convenience of the public for whose
benefit the Office was created. Hence,
the reason is apparent why the franz
ers. of the constitution placed greater
limitation and restrictions upon the
power of suspension than they did
upon the power of removal, and Why
in the general grant of the power OF
suspension and also in the special
cases in which it is allowed tney made
suitable provision for the performance
Of the duties of the Office by some other
officer or by a temporary appointee
during the suspension.
I'm the case before US the statute
attempts to authorize indefinite sus-
pension, not temporary suspension as
a step in and incident to removal; and
it makes no provision for the perform
ance of the duties of the Office during
the suspension. AS we have seen, the
governor is without power to appoint
any one to discharge the duties of the
Office in the place of a sheriff who is
merely suspended. While the suspen-
sion until the end of the term is IN
practical effect a removal, it can not
be allowed that effect in law, because
the governor has no power under this
statute to remove a sheriff; and under
no other statute which we have been
able to find has he power to remove a
sheriff until after trial and conviction
in the manner prescribed by the stat
utes which nave been enacted under
the pursuance Of the authority con-
ferred upon the legislature by section
27 of article of the constitution above
quoted.
"The result is that the governor had
no power to suspend or remove the
petitioner or to appoint the defendant
in mis- place.
'The judgment of this court is that
the attempted suspension Of the peti-
toner and the appointment of the de-
fendant, Hough, in his place were
without authority of law and of no eff
feet, and that the petitioner is entitled
to exercise the duties of his Office as
sheriff of Kershaw county"

eve next inquire whether the sus-
pension can be sustained by referring
it to any other power vested in the
governor. In State US. Bowden, supra,
it was settled that the power of ap-
pointing to Office is not a prerogative
of the governors Office AS corollary
to that decision, it was held in State
VS.. Rhame, 80 S. C. 455, and Mcdowell
vs. Burnett, supra, that the power Of
removal or suspension from Office is
not an inherent function of the chief
executive. 1t follows, as a result OF
those decisions, that the governor can
neither appoint to Office nor suspend
or remove from Office, unless the power
to do so is conferred upon him by the
constitution or statutes. 1t is also
pointed out in those cases under what
circumstances the power to remove
or suspend will be implied from the
power to appoint
"What is here said must be taken as
especially applicable to constitutional
officers. Those holding Offices created
by the legislature hold them subject to
the legislative Will The power tnat Gre
ates an Office can impose such limita-
tions and conditions upon the manner
of filing it and the tenure and the ex-
ercise of the duties of the Office and
may modify or abolish any of these or
the Office itself, as it's wisdom may die
tate, when no provision of the consti-
tuition is contravened in doing so. State
VS., Rhame, supro; Lillard VS. Melton,
Mss.
"In Mcdowell VS.. Burnett, the diff
ference between suspension and re-
moval of officers was pointed out: One
is the mere temporary withdrawal of
the power to exercise the duties of an
Office; the other is complete
and final deprivation of oficia'
tenure In that case and also in state
Es. Rhame is was held that the con-
ferring of the power of suspension i'm
pliedly denies the power of removal.
The two things are essentially differ
ent, and are attended by different con-
sequences, both to the officer and to
the public Removal creates a vacancy
in the Office which may be filled at
once in the manner prescribed by law;
suspension creates no vacancy, and
where there is no provision Of law for
some other to perform the duties OF the

Plan the garden in systematic way.
Put the early and much used vegetables
nearest the house.
Leave a good plot for tomato plants
fairly near the house.
Have the soil finely pulverized espec-
tally for the small seeds.
Be thorough. Do things up right.
Be pusher. Anybody can get things

Quit smoking the bad smelling pipes

off before you start in real life. Think
modern thoughts. Let the cob-webbed

think that some one else has done your
thinking, so long as you think your
thoughts are not needed, so long as
you fail to use your religious and civic
rights, you will let men abuse you.

Some teach philosophy that says
that all great things are of the past;
that nothing worth doing has been left

that there are no more jobs for real
