Justice Says Governor Has Right to
Gust Mayor.

ouSt hdyOEs
BY the Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y, August 30.-The
right of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt to
remove Mayor James j. Walker from
Office has been established by a court
decision.
Supreme Court Justice Ellis j. Sta
ley ruled last night that the Governor
had the authority to remove the mayor
and that in conducting the hearing he
was not bound by the courts to adhere
to any rules Of judicial procedure.
Justice Staley cited precedents by
which he observed the Governor might
be said to be in error in three instances
in his conduct of the proceedings, but
he pointed out that the courts have no
right to interfere.
Responsible to People.
Courts have no power over his (the
Governor's) person." he wrote, "and
they cannot commit him for disobedi-
ence of judicial process.
For errors, II any, of law or of fact
In the proceedings now before him he
is responsible, not to the courts, but to
the people and his own conscience"
In reply to Mayor Walkers conten-
ton that he is not being given a fair
hearing, because, instead of calling be-
fore him all the witnesses who testi-
fed against the mayor before the Hof-
Stadter Legislative Committee, Gov.
Roosevelt has admitted the commit
tees records as evidence, Justice Staley,
after quoting previous interpretations
of the law, observed:
THE requirement for a fair trial
and the provisions of section "a of
the public officers law do not counte-
nance, in my judgment, wholesale re-
ceipt and use of testimony taken by
an investigating committee

accorded to Others"

bill was referred to the committee but no action taken, and the re- port that a similar bill was to be introduced in the present Congress again caused consternation turnout the Territory. Delegate Wicker sham made a special plea to Secre- tary Hurley to not again introduce this bill, and set forth the various reasons why the government should not dispose of the system.
 A very gratifying reply has just been received from Douglas Mac Arthur, General Chief of Staff, at the request of Secretary Hurley, who enclosed various correspond ence with the President, and ended with the significant and very pleas ing paragraph: "AS you will see letter of December 3, 1881, the War Department is in general agree ment with your point of view. Tn the absence of further instructions, the Department does not intend to reintroduce the legislation in ques- tion."
 Tn addressing President Hoover on the important subject, Secretary Hurley, among other things, said: T am enclosing a letter from the Alaska Delegate dated November ?, 1881, wherein he urges on the part of the people of Alaska that no legislation be initiated authorizing the sale of the Alaska communica- tionS system. AS expressed in my letter of December 3, 1889, the War Department, per SC, had no objec- tion to this sale; however, it is un- derstood that the committee which originated the recommendation for sale did not at any time obtain a pertinent expression from the peo- pie or government of Alaska, This being the case, it would appear that the enclosed letter of the Delegate might we'll be taken into conSidera- tion before resubmitting legislation to Congress"
 The President undoubtedly took into consideration the letter of the Delegate with the result that the sale of the system will not be au- thorized, and the people of Alaska will ever hold in grateful remem- brance the kindly consideration of their interests by President Hoover and Secretary Hurley.

The Carrick country club was

It was Saturday night. The
colored orchestra was playing
that intriguing foxtrot known
as "Why?" Laurel OakeS was
dancing rhythmically with the
young doctor.
Laurel looked beautiful to-
night. Across the floor she
saw her mother watching her.
There was an odd expression
on her mothers face. Was it
possible that Connie was jeal-
Gus of her daughter. -?
She hadn't wanted Laurel to
come here. Was that because
Connie desired greater liberty
for herself? Didn't want Laurel
to be in on her "gallivanting"?
Or was it because she, too,
had fallen a victim to the at
fractions of Bruce Harvey?
Oh, kill that thought. Con-
ME belonged to Dad. Laurel
wouldn't even in thought be

murmured to her partner as

Your Health
Proper
Diet
By Logan Clendening, NJ. d.

Dy Logan NIeAIueIlIIlY, Ne IL.
There are those who believe
that a cold can be shortened If
strenuous measures are taken
at the beginning. Probably
what happens is getting the
worst over" a little sooner. AS
we all know, the first stage of
a cold is the most uncomfort-
able part. After it loosens and
there is nothing but blowing
and hawking and coughing, it
is not so hard to bear.
The way recommended to
abort colds is by a mustard
foot bath, a drink of hot
lemonade, five grains of aspirin
or two grains or quinine, every
hour for four hours, and get
ting into bed. Sometimes a
cathartic is thrown in for good
measure.
Everyone probably thinks he
knows by instinct how to give a
mustard foot bath. But there
is one little point that nearly
every person neglects, which
makes all the difference in
the world between good and
a poor mustard foot bath.
The proper technique is as
follows: A teaspoonful of do
mestic mustard tied in linen
bag is allowed to soak in q
quart of cool water. This is the
point in the technique that is
usually neglected; the first step
of seeping the mustard in cool
water. If mustard is added to
hot water first, the hot water
will not extract the essential
oils of the mustard. When
ready to use a gallon of water
at 10 degrees or lis degrees F.
may be added. Remember that
the feet are more sensitive to
heat than the hands.
While I do not believe that
the procedures mentioned are
calculated to abort a cold, they
constitute a good method of
healing the early stages of a
cold. They relieve the synp-
toms. The patient is cold and
they warm him up. The pa
tient learns for rest; and they
put him to bed.
There are two distinct periods
in the treatment of colds. One
for the stage of invasion and
one for the stage of exudation.
This early treatment of hot foot
baths, hot lemonade, aspirin
and quinine, and bed rest, is ex-
cellent. For the later stages,
change to inhalations, nasal
sprays and cough mixtures to
help get rid of secretions.
If only one part of the early
treatment is to be retained, rest
in bed should be the one. This
is difficult to enforce, but if
done only for day and two
nights it is worth more than all
the rest.
