Pool is Secretary | of Capitol Board. Jefferson City, Mo., Nov. 9.—J. Kelley Pool of Centralia, Mo., was| declared elected secretary of the Cap-| itol Commission yesterday by Chair-| man E. W. Stephens after Attorney General Major submitted an opinion overruling the protest of the Republi- can members of the board. Pool is in Jefferson City and will begin work to-day. His election took place at a meeting of the commission last Friday. The Republican protest to his election was on the ground that_there was not a quorum present. The four members of the board—| Chairman E. W. Stephens of Colum- bia, J. C. A. Hiller of St. Louis Coun- ty, A. A. Speer of Chamois and Theo- dore Lacaff of Nevada~—were present when the name of Pool was presented. the room. Chairman Stephens called for a vote. Pool received the votes of the chair- man and Hiller. Lacaff voted no. Attorney General Major ruled that the three members voting on the election of Pool constituted a quorum of the Capitol Commission Board. His decision further held that two votes of the three Commissioners present was a legal majority and that the elec- tion of Pool was valid. When the opinion was given to the board Chairman Stephens at once called a meeting, at which he declared Pool the secretary of the commission. The only charge lodged against the election of Pool has been that he is a partisan. No question has ever been raised as to his qualifications. Pool is the editor of a paper at Cen- tralia, Boone County. He has filled the positions of chief clerk of the House of Representatives, correspond- ing secretary of the Missouri Press Association, which is composed of Democrats and Republicans, and was indorsed for the position of secretary to the commission by the Republicans of his home county. Before the election of Pool the com- mission had taken twenty ballots. It was finally decided to elect by motion. Hiller on Friday presented the name of ‘Pool, which was seconded by Stephens. While Chairman Stephens was ask- ing for a vote on Pool’s name, Speer withdrew. “The commission will go over the plans, grounds and location of the Capitol building with the consulting architects at once,’ announced Chair- man Stephens. George E. Kessler, the architect, will arrive in Jefferson City this morning from Kansas City to | consult with the Commissioners. Before the vote Speer withdrew from | —- Sheriff’s Sale in Partition. E B, McQueen, Plainti. ve. Eley, or Eles Moore et al, Defendants.

Women Jurors Kick on Smokers. Seattle, Wash., Nov. 14. — The Women Voters’ Council memorializ- ed the County Commissioners for re- lief from the inconvenience caused women doing duty as jurors by men onthe jury, who insist on smoking their pipes in the jury-room. Eight women jurors have served during -the current month, though with some inconvincience to them- selves, because of the smoke of which they complain. It was represented to the Commis- siners that on every jury there are two or three men who insist on smok- ing during the deliberations. One woman juror said: ‘The jury- room has been so thick with smoke on several occasions that I could not see my nearest neighbor.” All night sessions, with the jurors resting in uncomfortable chairs, tilted back against the wall, are objected to by the women. It is contended that the county should provide a separate jury-room for the women, where they could re- cline comfortably until morning. Women bailiffs to wait upon the female jurors are also asked.
