NOTES ON APPOINTMENT OF PAR.
DON BOARD.

Mien the new pardon board was
appointed by Gov Manning few days
ago, the daily newspapers reporting
the appointment first stated that the
appointment by Mr. tanning "auto-
matically removed" the present board.
which was appointed by Gov. Blease.
A few days later, the same papers
stated that the terms of the old mem
bers of the board had expired some
time ago.
The statute as to the appointment
of this board reads as follows: "Sec-
ton S85-One of the said board shall
be appointed fer one year, and until
his successor shall be appointed and
qualified; one shall be appointed for
two years, and until his successor
shall be appointed and qualified; one
for three years and until his successor
shall be appointed and qualified; after
which the terms of Office shall be three
years; so that the term of one member
thereof shall expire eacn year.
We understand that the members of
the present board, Messrs. Magill,
Turner and Craig, were appointed by
Gov. Blease in the years 1912, 1913 AM
1914, respectively, so that under the
statute creating this board, their terms
expire in the years 1915, 1916 and 1917
The statute relating to the appoint
ment of the State bank examiner reads
as follows, in part: Section 2645-
The term of Office of the said bank ex-
aminer stall be four years"
1t will be recalled that in April, 1912,
Gov. Blease issued proclamation re-
citing acts and omissions which 'de
Characterized as neglect Of duty by
B. ]. Rhame, State bank examiner, ami
declaring that ne did thereby, for the
imputed neglect of duty remove
phon,o from bic ofHoo
That case was taken to the courts,
and Mr.. Justice C. A. Woods, who was
then on the supreme court bench, now
federal circuit judge, in writing the
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-04-16

We are pleased to note that Gov.
Meaningless followed the suggestion of
The Herald and News and revoked the
appointment of foreigner and select
ed a South Carolinian as superintend-
ent of the asylum We knew that there
were physicians in South Carolina that
could fill the position and who would
undertake the work. We do not ex-
actly endorse tie governor in his
course of doubling the salary, how
ever. DIR. Williams is a goNd man and
we believe will fill the position accept
ably. With taxes as high as they are
this is not a good time to be increas-
ing expenses. And the governor should
remember that the next session of tee
legislature will be the last one before
another accounting before the people
who have the taxes to pay. and the
members might be just a little more
tenderfooted in the making of addi-
tional appropriations Probably they
will do as tie governor dictates.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-04-16

WE were just wondering what some
Of the papers would Lave said if tie
governors predecessor, when ne ap-
pointed DR.. W. G. Houseal superin-
tendent of the asylum, had at the same
time guaranteed an increase of salary
from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t seems to
US that such a dictum from a governor
is unprecedented in South Carolina.

We notice that the dispatches say
that operations have been resumed on

It seems to US that the cases are
analogous all the way through, ana
we presume that it is the law, as
these principles were laid down by
the court of last resort in South Caro-
lima. Is it possible though, that such
constructions Of the. statutes as were
made by the supreme court only ap-
piled to tie actions of Gov Blease,
and that now they may be set at
naught by Gov. Manning? 1t begins to
look so, and that Gov Manning, As
chief executive has prerOgative con-
troll over officers such as is held by
the king of Great Britain, the supreme
court of the State of South Carolina
to TIE contrary Notwithstanding.
We have not noticed that the gcv-
ernor has requested an opinion from
the attorney general on this subject.

priation of $4,000 was made at the

To the Editor of The Star:
Many would undoubtedly be pleased
to read a sketch concerning themselves
like that which was published in The
Star last Sunday. Therefore. I thank
seems to have been actuated by the
kindest motives. / have certainly no
objection to being called chubby
checked or blushing admiral, but
should blush at the idea that my
friends could suppose that I had been
consulted in any way by the writer or
knew anything about what he pro-
posed to publish. What he says about
rewards could give the impression that
perhaps I felt that I had been dealt
with unfairly. Therefore 1 take this
opportunity to state that the sugges-
ton more than once made that L be
given higher rank and retained on
the active list was never acceptable to
me any further than it went to show
that my services were appreciated by
many. I have been rather amused
than otherwise at the efforts made to
show that the orders to destroy the
Spanish fleet in the Philippines were
sent from Washington and that the
suggestion that 1 could stay in a Bra
lillian port under plea of injured boil
ers or machinery was not in any way
referred to. 1t could not well have
but one more number than the other
captains and executive officers at San
tiago. 1 expect to live longer and am
assuredly much happier for having re-
tired as a rear admiral at the regular
retiring age. c. E. CLARK.
