moet I ‘4 + } } t SPEAKS FOR THE STATE. | Governor Stone Wants Protection for Her Institutions. A Strong Message on the Subject Sent) to the Legislature. Jefiason City,Mo.,Feb. 22.—A | and more serious aspect was impart- ed to-day tothe historic struggle be- | tween the county court of St. Clair county and the federal authorities | by a communication to the legisla- ture from Governor Stone. The} governcr called the attention of the general assembly to the fact that the judges of the county court of| _ St. Clair county were in jail in Kan- sas City under process of the United States circuit court for refusing to! make a tax levy to pay certain judg. ments rendered on bonds voted years ago for the building of a rail- road any state officer to perform official acts arising under the law of the state. The governor also asked that in order to protect the state from em- barrassment likely to arise from the confinement of county officials, that a statute be enacted empower: |’ ing himto appoint a special jugde to act inthe premises. The communication which ex- ceeds 3,000 words in length, is re garded at one of the best state pa- pers ever sent to the legislature,and demonstrates the governor is a law- ver of considerable ability and much courage. The governor gives a brief history of how the bonds came to be voted for a railroad which was never built and how after the bonds had been declared void and fraudulent R. R.

MANY CASES CITED. Many cuses are cited in support ithe position of the governor, and e shows that prior to 1863 it was ie practice of the federal courts in 1eir interpretation of the constitu- on and laws of the state, and in 1e language of the governor, “it is aly since that time that the prac- ce by the federal courts of domi+ ating and overriding the authori- es of the state has been in vogue.” he governor does not mince mat- rs in the communication, which is yuched in strong and emphatic ms. He declares that to imprison yunty judges is to bring disaster » the state and in his request to the gislature to take some action he fers to the outraged dignity of the ommmonwealth. The reading of the communication veated a profound sensation in both ae house and in both of hich bodies it was referred to the; senate dpies were ordered printed.
