TIE NEW COUNTY CLERK.

Jure Clerk Of the Circuit Court.

To he EIit0f nj The Register.
IL published statements are to Be accept
e6::as true, Judge Boyd in an interview With
reporter after the appointment Of Major
Mitchell as circuit clerk to succeed Major
b. MCColloch, slated that the appoint
M ut was ouly temporary, meaning, III
other words, until MajOr MCCullo,h ap
peared ard demanded back his Office
There IS so much nonsense and absurdity
about this view OF the appointment OF Ma
10. Mitchell, which was, by law, in!iSpeu.
sinly necessary in order to 90 IN with the
public business, that | am inclined
TO credit the reporter with q mis-
understanding of what Judge Boyd
did say, and TO accept as nearer the truth
the statement included in an editorial in
this mornings Intelligence to the niFec;
that Major M"Colloch should have his OF
fce again provided he could give satisfsc
tory reasons for absenting himself. But
even supposing this latter construction OF
what Judge Boyd said is correct, how could
the office be given back to the former in.
cumbent? Was not Major McColoch le-
Sally arraigned, tried and convicted OF
official neglect OF duty?' Hew could the
Judge; expunge this official fact from the
record? Are not these proceedings law
fu Part OF the recorded history of
Ohio county? The court could have no
authority 10 remove MsjOr Mitchell, eN
cept as it did Major McColloch, by due
process Of law, for cause OF course Mrjor
Mitchell could resign, but unless he is 50
disposed it is beyond the power of the Cir
cult judges 10 give Major MCColloch his
office again if be should appear and claim
il. Major Mitchell is de facto and de jure
clerk of the Circuit Court of Ohio county,
and, in my humble opinion, must so re
main until the expiration of his term.
Judge Boyd has certainly been misunder
