FRICTION CAUSE OF
BARRETT'S ACTION
Deputy ' Attorney General Re
signs and His Chief Imme
diately Names Successor.
(Krom a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, ittb.. May 31. (Special
Telegram.) Deputy Attorney Gen
eral Dexter E. Barrett this morning
tendered his resignation to Attorney
General Reed. He will retire Irom
-office lulv 1. Mr. Barrett was ap
oointed dermtv attorney general in
1915 when Mr. Reed took office. He
was reaooointed last January. Mr.
Barrett came here from Nelson. His
wife is a daughter of the late K. D.
Sutherland, who formerly represented
the Fourth district in congress.
While the resignation of the deputy
was set for July 1, or at the conveni
ence of Attorney General Reed, the
latter decided it "convenient to ac
cept the resignation immediately and
at once named Assistant & P. Roe,as
the flenutv.
Mr. Barrett .yill continue the prac
tice of law probably in Lincoln. He
gives as one reason for his resigna
tion that the act of the legislature
prohibiting state officials and their
deputies from accepting outside cases
deprived him of more revenue several
times over than his salary amount
ed to. ' '
It is, however, understood ' that
there was some friction between Mr.
Reed and his deputy which was really
the cause of the resignation.
