The County Court situation is be-
coming trillA mixed. Judge Gallo
way, OF the Probate Court, holds a
commission as magistrate OF the
Eighte nth District, and County Clerk
Quigley OF the Fifth District. The
former has not yet decided TO resign,
and the latter will do so during the
first session OF the court, in October.
Neither can resign until the court
meets, and II they did 80 at cnce their
seats would remain vacant, as a certain
legal form hes tn be gone through
with before their successors can be
elected. Ia the Fifth District those
spoken OF 10 succeed Justice Qligley
are John j. Barry and Joe Flynn. M.

the Office OF he County Clerk. JUS

James McNamars, the foreman OF the

out the permission Of the District En

1t was not only violation OF the law
