the November election took place, is
called An act in relation to elections aud
tenure OF Office The first section pro-
vides that general election for terrific
rial, county and precinct officers shall be
held biennially on the Tuesday after the
! first Monday in November, the first to
take place in 1892, and that the officers
then elected shall qualify and enter upon
the duties of their offices on the first day
of January next succeeding. There is an
exception made as to the county collector;
he is not to enter upon his duties until
the first day of the following June.
This is sufficiently definite as to the
time when the newly elected officers shall
take their places. The members of the
county court-selectmen elected last No
vember-qualifed according to this pro-
vision, and on Tuesday entered upon
their duties. So far all was according to
the law OF 1892.
But their predecessors, elected in Aug
ust, 1891, were to hold their offices for
two years and until their successors were
elected and qualified. Does the law of
1892 in express language shorten their
terms of Office? Let us see: Section two
provides that the official terms of the
present incumbents, except in the case of
the county collector, .'shall extend to the
first day of January, 1888, and until their
their successors are elected and qualified,
but not longer'
This would seem to be explicit enough
for anybody. Therefore the statement
that the legislature neglected to provide
for the shortening of the terms of the in
cumbent officials is entirely erroneous.
The new officials are to enter upon their
duties on Jan. /, the old officials are to
hold their Offices until Jan. /, "but not
longer -
The only question that seems to remain
is as to the right of the assembly to legis-
late men out of office. We believe this
has been settled in the courts beyond
reasonable dispute. Terms of Office may
be heightened or shortened by law. 1t is
supposed that the ex-officials will test the
matter in the courts. Ii they do, it
should be at their own expense. It Is
only factious opposition. It will not be
for the public benefit. Ii some public
interest was at stake there might be some
ex-officials. Their attempt to block bust
ness and put the county to expense should
be noted by the voters and remembered on
future occasions. If the disgruntled out
goers are wise they will retire as grace
fully as possible and not seek to thwart
the will OF the people as expressed at the
polls,
