Schively May Have No Office. In the discussion of organization and legislation, the real purpose of the ses sion has almost been lost sight of. There is a strong sentiment growing against any attempt at impeachment of J. H. Schively, Insurance Commissioner. This does not mean that no action is to be taliAti hut V.o K 1 . 111 " l pirtu most generally discussed now is the legislation - of Dcmveiy out or ornce by abolishment of his department. This plan is proposed as a guard against a lengthy session.- It is pointed out that in the event impeachment Is attempted Schively would have to be granted ali the rights of an accused person in court, and the trial might be prolonged for a month or six weeks. Even if, in the event his office is ohnini,n i , , were ame to collect his salary for the balance of ma ierm, 11 is argued that the expense tn tno cl'jlo wnuM r v. - . du great as an impeachment trial before a tribunal of Senators. . .

Discussion of Impeachment has been resolved partly because the members do not care to commit themselves until they receive the report of the investigating committee and the Governor's message Both are in print and ready for submisl sion to the Legislature. If there i3 no delay over organization, the two bodies will convene in the House chamber to morrow afternoon, and receive the mess age and report. The two comprise about 18.000 words. oul If no general legislation is attempted the work of the session will be confined to disposal of the Schively case and con sideration of continuing the investigating committee and the adoption of an appro priation bill providing for the expenses of the committee and the special ses sion. There is a probability that instead of continuing the investigating commit tee the Legislature- will enlarge the pow ers of the State Board of Accountancy created by the recent session, so that It may continue the work started by the committee.
