the as to whether Section 80 of the schedule,
now Constitution, viz :--"All State and
judicial officers heretofore elected, sworn,
affirmed, or in office when this Constitution
shall take effect, shall severally within one
month after such adoption, take and sub
scribe an oath or affirmation to support

officers in office at the time of its adoption
who must necessarily have been elected or
appointed under the old Constitution, or

Article V. section !, Of the old Conslitu.

judicial power of this Commonwealth sh I'll
be vested in certain courts therein named,
and in justices of the peace, and in such
other courts ae the Legislature may from
time to time estabish.''
Inc supreme court mas decided that JUS
tices OF the peace are judicial officers
They are clearly embraced within the otfi-
GERS designated by section 30, schedule new
Constitution, who shall, within one month
after its adoption, take and suscrbe an
oath or affirmation TO support the new
Constitution.
The act of June 30. 1889, provides that
JUS ices the peace shall be sworn or afflrm-

the oath required under the new Cuistitu-
