, In effect seven state governors have
been Impeached, according to iniorma
tlon contained In Foster's "Commentaries
'"on the Constitution of the United
- States," Of the aeven only two were
found guilty and removed ffom office,
namely David Butler of Nebraska and
William H. Hoiaen- or worm caroiina,
. The Bulzer Impeachment In New York
. elves a review of these cases timely
interest.
Governor Holden was removed by a
hostile senate following his activities In
representing; the Klu Klux Klan In his
state during the reconstruction days.
This was late in 1870.- Although ao
' quitted on the charge of misconduct In
- declaring two turbulent counties in in
aurrection he was found guilty on
y charges of causing unlawful arrests
bringing In troops from another state
and violating the writ of habeas corpus.
- Governqr Butler of Nebraska was
charged in 1871 with appropriating some
81 8.000 of state moneys to bia own use.
with 'the acceptance of bribes, with un
TawTulijRgivIng state lands to a railroad
company the aioux city & Facino ana
with selling certain state lands and
pocketing part of the proceeds. The
governor was . acquitted on all the
, charges except that of the mlsapproprl-
ation of the 816.000. On this charge
members of both political parties united
In finding him guilty and he was re
moved from office.
' Colonial , Ooveo Bosp'endea.
: The first American governor to be ae
, eused ln.ny proceeding analogous to the
' present day Impeachment was Governor
. Seth Bothell, of the oolony of North
Carolina, who was suspended by the pro
prietors of the colony In a letter dated
- December 2, 1689, on charges made by
the Inhabitants of the county of Albe
marle and approved by the assembly.
One charge was that be had seised and
Imprisoned two. person coming into the
county from Barbados with proper cre
' dentials on the pretence that they were
pirates.
The first Impeachment of a governor
after the union was established was that
of Oovernor Charles Robinson of Kansas
:. in 1862. He was charged together with
. the secretary of state and auditor with
having used unlawful means in finding
a market for an authorised Issue of
bonds to the amount of 8160,000. Poli
tics predominated In the affair. The
v secretary of state and the auditor were
removed from office. Governor Robinson
was acquitted.
On .November C, 1868, the Florida
- bouse of representatives Impeached Gov
ernor Harrison Reed on charges of false-
hood and lying in official matters, of
Incompetency, of unlawfully declaring
'vacant many seats in the lelgslature, of
' embezzlement from the state treasury
and of corruption and bribery In his
appointments.
Governor Reed refused to surrender
. his office, and asked the state supreme
court to pass on the legality of the pro
ceedings. The court upheld Reed's po
sition and removed Lieutenant-Governor
Oleason from office on the. ground of
Ineligibility. The United States supreme
court then upset the removal of Gleason
as lieutenant-governor and with the In
coming of the newly elected legislators
on the first of January both houses.
with vacancies filled, recognised Gov
ernor Reed and the Impeachment pro
. ceedlngs were dropped.
Oovernor Clayton Acquitted.
r In 1871 Governor Powell Clayton, of
Arkansas, wa Impeached, charged with
conspiring to prevent the lieutenant
governor from occupying his office, for
removing certain judges Illegally, with
- participating In election frauds and with
having Issued state bonds unlawfully
for the benefit of certain railroads. The
senate adopted such stringent' rules for
the court of Impeachment that the house
managers declared they were unable to
: handle the case and were discharged. A
second board failed to find evidence up
on which to base an Impeachment. Ul
timately the charges were dropped.
In 1872 Governor Henry C. War moth
of Louisiana was impeached on a long
list of counts which included the forc
ible expulsion from office Of the sec
retary of state, various unlawful ap
pointments, connivance In the forcible
i ejection of a Judge from office in order
' to obtain possession of his court for use

R. R. , Graves, professor of dairy
husbandry, Oregon Agricultural
college.
Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
lls. Or., Aug. 16. Professor R.' R.
Graves, the newly appointed professor
of dairy husbandry, has arrived at the
Oregon Agricultural College from Wash
ington, D. C. In addition to his under
graduate and post-graduate, training, he
has had a wide practical experience in
the important branches of practical
dairying. He was graduated from the
Kansas Agricultural College, and after
a few years of practical dairying, en
tered the University of Missouri for
post-gaduate work in dairying, and there
earned a master's degree. He made a
specialty of research work in the uni
versity under the direction of Dr. Eckles,
an authority of national standing in
matters relating to dairying.
In his practical experience Professor
Graves was manager of the milk dHy
Later he was manager of a largo dairy
farm, In which the specialty was the
production of high grade milk and tha
breeding of dairy cattle. He oomes here
from the United States division of dairy
ing, in which capacity he made inspec
tion trips Into many parts of the United
States.
To provide for the manufacturing and
handling of dairy products on a larger
scale than ever befoie, the dairy plant
of the Oegon Agricultural College has
been greatly Improved and enlarged by
the addition of new equipment. The
three main dairy products butter,
Cheese and ice cream will be manufac
tured under modern factory conditions.
"We have a new building; and splendid
equipment," said Professor Graves. "As
now adjusted, the plant Is amply sup
plied with material and equipment for
student Instruction arid practice in mod.
ern dairying.
"It is the purpose of the department
to build up herds of high grade, regis
tered dairy cattle of the four main dairy
breeds Holsteln - Freslan, jersey,
Guernsey and Ayreshlre. Our offices
will be open to assist farmers and prac
tical dairymen throughout the state in
the problems of building up dairy herds,
thereby Increasing total production and
profits."
In setting aside an election board. Ktho
offer of a bribe of 850,000 to Lieutenant
Governor P. B. S. Pinchback If the latter
would organize the state" senate In "War-
' mouth's Interest and a number of
- charges of Intimidation of officials and
; . offers of bribes.
Before the trial was concluded the
- governor's term of office had expired
A- and the charges were dropped.
In 1876 Adelbert Ames, governor of
"I Mississippi, was impeached and tried by
the state senate, but resigned before a
verdict was rendered. Ames, a Repub
, lican governor of a southern state in the
days of reconstruction, was charged with
a long list of offenses. Including the de
frauding of the state Of 833,760 by glv-
, lng contracts for prison labor to per
sonal friends without public letting
conspiring to slander a political op
' 'ponent, unlawful removal of various of.
fleers and the unlawful retention in of
, flee of others. He also was charged
' with Inciting race riots by inflammatory
speeches and granting a pardon to a
' felon .upon the payment of 13000 to a
. third person.
t- Before the trial was concluded the
governor wrote a letter to the house
saying that on account of the embarrass
ment. caused br the election of a hostile
legislature he desired to resign, but thst
he would not do so while the proceed
ing were pending against him. So the
house adopted a resolution, basing the
preamble on this letter, withdrawing
, the . Impeachment, the. senate approved
.and Ames resigned.
