Before making Call for Ex-

An extra session of the legislature

every day, for those close to Gov. Rye
declare he is determined to maintain
the dignity Of the judiciary in Tennes-
see and that in such a crisis the cost
of an extra session should not be con-
sidered. !.
When asked if he had anything to
say on the matter this morning Gov
Rye declared that he understood q
committee of lawyers from Memphis
were coming to Nashville to see him
| in the next day or so, and that unit
they officially made their recommen'
dation to him he would not take any
action.
Il is also probable that the Govern
or will await the action of the suprem'
court next Saturday, when some yer!
important cases are expected to D
handed down. In case the high cour
finds any legal flaws in the custer bil
the governor intends to include mat
ters of legislation in his call to. cor
rect these defects.
Gov. Rye is determined to brin
about a better state of affairs in Mem
phis. He believes that the good pee
pie themselves in Memphis reallz
! that they have been up against it In tn
| administration of the criminal Law

OPINION GIVEN ON
GAME WARDEN CASE
W. D. HowsER is UPHELD IN HIS
FIGHT FOR OFFICE.
The Hooper Appointee Upheld in His
Fight to Hold His Office Against
the Appointee Of Gov. I.
n c. Rye.

The supreme court adjourned Mon
day until Saturday, February IL, at
$3.50 a. m, when it will again meet for
the rendition Of opinions. The court
announced that the adjournment was
necessary to enable the judges to pre-
pare the opinions in cases already ar
gued before the court.
The court decided the game warden
case in favor Of w. D. Howser, the
appointee of former Governor Hooper
and against the appointee of Gov. Rye,
W. D. Fulton. The Legislature OF 1915
undertook to abolish the office held by
Howser and to create new depart
ment Of game and fish. Under the
1915 statute, Fulton was appointed a.
warden by Gov. Rye. The supreme
court held that the act of 1915 did mo-
in fact create new department ans
that Howser was entitled to continue
in Office under the 1916 act until tn
expiration of his term of Office Of eigh
years. Howser was appointed OF
April 10, 1918 and his term expires il
1921.
