Among the supreme court decisions handed down last week was the case of Joseph I). Lloyd, of Wyoming, who was appointed by Governor Hastings on Au gust 8, and later elected, as controller of Luzerne county, but whoso title to the office was contested by the county commissioners, who declared the office unconstitutional and who were affirmed by the lower court. Lloyd then took the case to the supreme court, being an injunction to restrain the commissioners from paying bills, and demanding recog nition and office room. The decision of the higher court makes Mr. Lloyd the controller, and declares the act to be constitutional. The action of tho supremo court in I.lio case has caused much comment, as tho act in question was thought by many prominent attorneys to be uncon stitutional. The act was framed by County Solicitor .Joseph Moore, who saw the need of a controller for counties of large population. After ho framed the act in 1892, it was introduced by Sena tor Kline in 1893. and, after some changes, was passed. Abedncgo Iteese, of West lMttston, was appointed con troller. A test case was at once made of the law and it was declared unconsti tutional by the supreme court. Then the original act was submitted again in 1895 and passed. A test case was again made with tho above result. Tho county auditors have been ousted by tho decision, and Messrs. lliggs and Morgan, who received tho nomination at tho recent Republican county con vention, get nothing for their trouble oven if they are elected. Tho terms of tho present auditors will expire on January 1. Mr. Lloyd proposes to arrange as soon as convenient to take possession of the oflico. His deputy will be Robert E. Donaughey, of Ilazleton, and bis chief clerk Ilarry Phillips, of West l'ittston, whom he lias selected iu placo of John M. Jones, who was nominated at the Republican convention for county com missioner. I'iLtHton'tt Investigation l£ulef Massachusetts.
