COUNTY GOVERNMENT BILL

There was much connection among county
officers and politicians yesterday on receipt of
the news of the decision of the Supreme Court
regarding the county government law, and
under which the election for county officers
was to have been held The general belief is
that there will be no election OF county Off
GERS this fall; that present incumbents will
hold over that the failure of the law enacted
by the Legislature leaves the old condition of
affairs to prevail Of necessity, inasmueh as the
Constitution made it imperative that the Leg
stature should enact laws providing for the
election or appointment OF county officers
There are some who hold different views and
declare that an election is imperative under
the Constitution, which says one must be
held in even-numbered years, etc. The de-
eision of the Court is as follows:
