Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1893-01-28

THE Sheriffs of Wisconsin, have
just held a meeting IN walkee,
Among other things asked for is a
legislative enactment allowing them
to hold Office more than one term.
The tribune can see 10 good
reason why a good officer should
not be reelected to a second term,
the same as other county officers.
Some argue against reflections on
the ground that officials retained
more than one term become corrupt
because of the knowledge they have
obtained of ways and means to
cover no their short comings, but
isn't this all nonsense? The Sheriff
is considered the most important Of
all the county offices, and it is one
that requires more time to learn
than at least some Of the others.
1t occurs to a fair.minded person
that the first term Of office better
qualities an Incumbent to fill such
/ position.
