SEVERAL BILLS VETOED
AND REASONS STATED
' BY GOVERNOR LISTER
Refusal of Legislature to Per
mit Checking of State, Au
l ditor's Office Is Rebuked.
INCREASED SALARIES FAIL
MtMura & at OlympU to Car.
. , clsjrsd to Bs Wholly Unwlss.
' The state bureau of inspection,
maintenance of the governor's inan
ition and tho position ot state law
librarian were wiped out today by
Governor Lister's veto of items In
tha general appropriations bill. Weeks
ago the governor warned tha chalr
men of th legislative appropriations
that this action would be taken if
proper appropriations were not made,
but his suggestions' were ignored.
In his veto message the governor
aid:
I must take the action of the
i legislature, in declining to provide
for the checking of the state audi
tor's deDartment. when having be-
fora ,lt the information that the de
partment had not been checked since
statehood, as an indication that the
fifteenth legislature was not in fa
vor of- the expenditure of public
funds for this purpose.
' Checking Appropriation Unwise.
. If it be necessary to have a
check' of the auditor's office, which
1 ' .1.. ha mnat lmrtnrtnnt H
partment of the state in the matter
of the payment or puonc iunas, n
- seems to me that I am Justified in
taking the position that it would be
unwise to appropriate $43,700 to be
-used , in checking tha other depart
ments of the state."
Tha bill also proposed to increase
salaries of the law librarian from
$2400 to $3000, the assistant from
$1200 to $1500 and the second as
' Blatant from $900 to $1200. The
v governor points out that he cannot
' see why the librarian should receive
I a salary as great as that paid the
attorney general,, so he vetoes the
librarian's salary but leaves the
two assistants at the increased pay,
He also vetoed the $9000 for main-
- tenance of the executive mansion
which ha will abandon the end of
this month.
' Architects Are Turned Down.
He also vetoes $250 for Spokane
architects for plans for remodeling
tha Spokane armory because they
publicly offered their services free.
: Ha allows the $3287 relief bill for
Auditor Clausen to stand, though
- he points out that one of the items
included was for printing by a 'local
- newspaper plant at a cost of sev
eral hundred dollars more than the
Vetoing the bill to severely pun-
r'lsTi" dissemination of I. W. W. doc-
V trlnes, the governor says:
"If the enactment of a law relat
ing to a special subject, such as
that covered in this bill, could carry
'with, it sufficient force to free the
state from the disturbing and often
... times destructive influences of false
oocinnes, we wouia, inaeea, do jus
tiflde in placing such a law on our
. statute books.
Why Law Would Be Wrong.
. "I cannot feel, however, that such
a law would be of sufficient force
. to bring About this much desired
condition. It seems to me that we
Tv ill secure more substantial and
permanent results by following the
course of enforcing the comprehen-
, alve laws we now have, against all
violators of such laws, rather than
by specializing and placing on the
v statute books a law for the purpose
or, by punishments provided in it,
"endeavoring to crush doctrines, no
matter how false such doctrines
may be."
f said Mr, Andrews Monday. "When
ne was finally returned to -us, his
furry coat was a mass of mud, he had
a hole to the bone, and the. diameter
of a half collar. In his shoulder and
he was otherwise mutilated. 'Al
though I have brought these things
to the attention of the superintend
ent of the society, I have been unable
to get an expression of regret, even.
A veterinary, was sent , to look at the
dog and he said the -animal had been
'chewed up" . ,.,
Superintendent Coperthwaite of the
Humane society said that the dog
wagon attendants declare the Andrews
dog had been fighting before capture
and that it was returned i?K. the
same condition as they found iC-sHe
says that he frequently 'warns his men
to be humane In their handling of
stray; canines.
