THE FATE of the County Court bill has
been discussed at length within the past
week. Some think that the Governor
will repeal it, others that he will sign it,
and so on. If he vetoes it, it is argued,
it will promptly be passed over his oblec-
tions. The probabilities are that the Gov
ernor will simply let the bill lie without
action on his part. If we are not mis-
taken the matter is settled by constitu-
tional provision. Section z, article 6. Of
the constitution, under the head of Eek
ecutive," says that eff any bill shall not be
returned by the Governor, within five
days Sunday excepted), after it shall
have been presented TO him, the same
shall be law in like manner as if he had
signed it, unless the legislature by their
adjournment prevent its return, IN which
case 1t shall not be law" In this in.
stance the withholding of the Governor Is
signature certainly kills the bill, as the
legislature, by its adjournment until Dc
tober, has prevented the return of the
law. That this view is correct is evil
denced by the fact that the first adjourn
ment of the legislature was made to cover
this very point of having all bills in the
Governors hands signed or vetoed. The
county court bill may be reintroduced in
October, and it probably will be taken up
then and passed. In such an event there
should be strong insistment to cut out
the clause providing for the election OF
Judges.
