SENT GOVERNOR
Judqe Warner to Quit Bench
Oct. 10-MayOr Keller
Let's Matter Drop.

The resignation Of Judge Herbert
d. Warner from the bench OF the
city. court. which is to take effect
Oct 10. was mailed to Gov. Ralston
Tuesday morning. Mr.. Warner had
signided his intention of resigning
some time ago when the question
arose as to the repository of the
authority TO appoint his successor
arose
This action of Judge Warner prac-
ticaIly places. IN this particular
case. the power of appointing the
new Judge of the city court, to
serve until the expiration of the
term on Jan. /, 1918, into the hands
Of the governor. since Mayor Keller
declared that he would let the mat
ter drop unless the resignation were
rendered TO him. Since he will
start no action to Set aside or to
contest the appointment that the
governor Will make. it is practically
assured that the governors ap-
pointment will stand approved
In the manner of appointing the
successor to a vacancy in the city
court of an Indiana city, there is a
nice question of law concerned.
Three sections of the code of laws
entitled the Cities and Towns Act"
passed in 1905 and relating to the
government of Indiana cities. de-
clare that the power of appointing
the successor to the city court
bench. in case of a vacancy. rests
in the mayor of the particular city.
Four years later the first of these
sections, No. as, was amended, Civ
ing the power of appointment to
the governor of the state. Neither
at that time nor later however. has
there been repeal passed recall
ing the latter two sections which
must. therefore still be i'm operation
Since the state law declares that in
passing an amendment to a code
law. all sections not amended are
by the fact Of the amendment. re-
enacted. the code as il stands con-
tains within itself. one section Civ
ing the particular power of ap-
pointing the city Judge TO the gov
ernor. and two sections giving gen.
eral appointive power to the mayor
Further. the law ,-at gives the
weight of power TO the act last
passed does not apply TO acts re-
Eating 10 a single subject but only
10 conflicting acts on different sub
jects The question in this matter
has never been settled in any court
nor is il likely that it will he
brought 10 a test. owing to the de-
claration of Mayor Keller. in which
ne maintained that he would not
start action.
