TRENTON, Jan. 13:-The leaders
of the Republican majority opened
today's session of the legislature pre-
pared to sit here until Thursday or
Friday, If necessary, to put through
the five bills which Assemblyman
Henry G. Hershf1eld expected to IN
troduce this afternoon to put a curb
Bit upon the plans of Governor-elect
Edwards to summarily remove from
office certain members of state
boards after he comes into office next
week.
At least the time-honored custom
of organizing the legislature on the
second Tuesday in January and then
~adjourning for the week seemed to
be due for the discard when the law
makers gathered here today. The
Republicans want to put through the
legislation they have planned ahead
of Mr.. Edwards inauguration n
they cannot afford to wait until next
Monday evening to rush it through.
The program today was to have the
bills introduced today, to ave them
digested, and to hold another session
tomorrow to pass them, and IL not
tomorrow, Thursday.
Four of the bills will give the
mantle of protection. in the form of
hearings to the members of the same
number of boards, before Mr.. Ed
wards can remove them. The boards
are Highway, Institutions and Agen-
cies, Bridge and Tunnel and Public
Utility Commission. The latter is
now protected by hearing, but was
included for the sake of uniformity.
The fifth bill to be presented by Mr..
Hershfield will provide the method
by which the hearings shall be con-
Quoted and will require thai the gov

ANNUAL BUDGET
. MESSAGE READ
Acting Governor Takes Up Ap-
proDria.iOns for This Year

TRENTON, Jan. I5-Shortly after
it's organization today the legislature
received the annual budget message
from Acting Governor William N.
Runyon. 1t contained total appro-
priation recommendations Of over
S12, O0O, 900, which is approximately
two million less than the noun
contained in the appropriation Dill
passed by the last legislature. Mr..
Runyon had presented to him total
budget requests soaring up to Slf,-
100000, but he had to cut right ana
left and comply with the law py
keeping his specific Recommendations
within the amount Of money estfmat-
ed to be available for the fiscal year
beginning July the first next.
Comptroller BugDee and state
Treasurer Read advised the execu-
tive that there would be available for
the next fiscal year the sum OF Wv
7~18.659.22, Mr.. Runyon recommend
ed appropriations by this legislature
totaling S10,22S,735.92. However,, the
budget message contains
dations for educational purposes set
forth in the communication
ing to $1,896, 626.73, the money to
come from the state SC1OOl AuHu
which Is composed of funds derived
from the railroad corporation taxes:
This makes up the total budget or
twelve millions asked for
The work of the Workmen's Reha-
Utilization Commission a already
shown most gratifying results, says
the budget message, and should De

$4,000. Child-welfare work should
receive S150,000 Money for an en-
tirely new School for the Deaf and
for an additional structure at the
Bordentown Colored School is recon-
mended.
"As conditions stand today" says
Mr.. -Runyon's message, 'the revenues
accruing to the general treasury are
ample for all current general appro-
priations; but are not sufficient to
provide also for large expenditures
for educational, road and construc-
ton purposes.
IT am, therefore. recommending
that appropriate legislation be enact
ed to provide hat the expenditures
for educational purposes be all made
from the proceeds of the railroad
corporation tax; that the a~ppropria-
ton for state aid to counties for road
construction be made from motor
vehicle receipts, and hat the funds
for construction Of the Interstate
bridge and tunnel be raised by bond
issue, to be paid of by tolls collect

given case within thirty days after
the hearing.
Although the idea of giving re-
moved members the right to have a
court appeal from the governors &C
ton is dormant for the present in the
Republican majority, there Is still a
strong possibility of it's being revived
and passed before the session begin
ming today sees it's end. When asked
about the matter, Leader Hershfeld
declared:
THE majority does not want to
protect incompetent or undesirable
board members, but it does not be-
lieve q governor should remove a
man just because he may wear a diff
ferent kind of a tie from that Of the

California man for Johnson

Judge Goodce.l Of California,
speaking in the interests Of Hiram
w. johnson for President, spoke to
a small audience at Harmonic Hall
Monday afternoon.
The speech was not billed ahead
and but very few Of the citizens
knew Of it. Judge Goodcel] was
very interesting and able speaker,
being far ahead of The political
speakers which have visited the
city. He gave a clear outline Of
the California Senator's program
and tie deeds which accomplished
as governor Of the western state,
quoting the scriptures saying. "By
Their Deeds We shall Know Them. =
He claimed for Johnson man who
past records. his &C minlstrative
capabilities, his capacities, and his
humanitarian qualities just those
which are needed for our head
executive.
But he did not tell the audience
that johnson would Kill the League
Of Nations altogether, leaving the
chasm Of uncertainty the foreign
nations for which we fought and
died. He claims Johnson's human
itarian spirit one Of the standig
char acteristics but disapproved it
by saying that johnson wanted to
abandon the rest Of the world to it.
self, leaving them to tate which
is as bad as war itself.
On the whole the speech was a
fine, clear, clean campaign for a
man who he sincerely believed in.
with none of the dirty political
mudslinging. hesmirtching Of the.
other candidates. or of the cheap
grandstand plays for votes. While
we can say this for the speaker,
Judge Goodcell, we do not believe
that Senator johnson is of 2the pres
idential caliber.

CARD OF THANKS
Register OF Deeds ReSlQnS

Due entirely to an understanding
that he was qualified citizen ard
eligible for public office, Joseph
Hedman has voted and held several
public offices, and has just now dis
covered that he was not a citizen.
The discovery Of his came when
Mr.. Hedman was looking over old
papers and found that his father
had taken out his first papers short
ly after arriving in the country in
1885. The children automatically
become citizens when the father be-
comes citizen. Further investig
alton after Mr.. Hedman became of
age showed the records declared his
father a citizen and he received
papers to that effect.
Thus the matter has rested until
its discovery by Mr.. Hedman
short time ago. He Immediately
took steps to examine the records
carefully and become convinced that
q mistake had been made. He i'm.
mediately rendered his resignation
to the county auditor which will be
placed in the hands Of the county
commissioners at their next session.
! The matter has placed Mr.. He'd
man in peculiar position % he has
enjoyed the advantages Of 4 citizen,
voting and holding public cfiice.
There were very few chances Of ever
having the matter brought TO light
had Mr.. Hedman chosen to keep it
q secret, but he felt it his duty to
get the matter straigbtened out.
He has made plans to move 10 his
farm near Stockholm and to take
the naturalization examination at
the July term Of court.
Grant county will loose the SER
vices Of = man who has been an
efficient and conscientious public
officer.

The grim reaper Death has call
ed another Of the pioneer citizens
of Mibank and Grant county. and
a Civil War veteran when William
W. Mount passed into the great be-
yond last Suncay evening.
Mr.. Mounts death came as the
end of period of gradual failing
of health due to many compiica-
tions and advanced age. He had
lived nearly 80 years, half of which
has been spent in Milbank as one Of
the substantial citizens of the city.
He was taken ill last May and since
that time has been subject to
several bad spells caused by
hemorrhages and grew weaker until
death relieved further suffering.
The end was peaceful. with his wife
and dear friends at his siue.
He leaves to mourn his passing,
his wife two sisters, Mrs. A. K.
Boestel of Shellsburg, Iowa. who
arrived Tuesday afternoon to at
tend the funeral ard Mrs. Casteel
of Kansas, his near relatives and
pioneer friends who have known
Mr.. Mount since his coming to the
city.
Funeral services were held on
Wednesday afternoon from the
home. Burial was made in the
cemetery, with six members of the
American Legion IN uniform acting
as pail bearers to his last resting
place.
William w. Mount was born in
Indiana on July Is, 1910 being over
70 years at the time Of his death.
He lived in Indiana until he grew
to manhood at which time he NOV
ed to Dakota and settled in Milbank
in 1910. Three years later he was
married to Miss Eliza Kennedy on

no children of this union.
Mr.. Mount served in the Civil

months, enlisting in the 5th Iowa
Infantry 1851, from which he was
discharged on July "a. 1864. Four
days later he enlisted in the cavalry
of the same regiment and was
finally discharged from service one
year later. He went through the
service with no wounds. nor was he
taken prisoner. His record was
clear and he many times expressed
great satisfaction with his mill
tary service.
The funeral services were in
charge of the G.. A. r. of which he
has been a member. He Joined the
A. A. Humphrey Post, No. AZ in
1898. He has been an officer in
the post and was at one time the
post commander. His interests
were always for the good Of the G..
A. r. He was a member of the
Woodman lodge, and Of the De-
gree OF Honor.
His passing will be mourned by
the city at large, as the passing Of
one Of the veteran citizens. His
many friends and comrades will
feel the loss of comrade and ncte
the gradual passing of the ranks.
The local G. A. r. Post at one time
numbered 1875 members and was a
strength for good and upright
principals. Now the membership
of the post is eight, which are the
following: N. l. Lowthian, post
commander; d. Stats aid de-camp;
Adna Woolsey. W. Nj. Cleveland.
