MAYOR FOR TWO YEARS.
That's An Col. Stroag's Certificate Says. bat
II Will Stretch TO Three.


When Mayor r-elect Strong took the oath OF
office last Thursday he had q certificate Of elec-
tlon emitting him TO term Of only two years,
although it is generally conceded that the re-
vised Constitution, which will go into effect
Jan. next will entitle him 10 administer the
office for three years.
Ex-Congressman John J. Adams. who accom-
panied tho Mayor elect to the County Court
House when he took the oath. demanded Of
County Clerk Purroy that he give TO Mr.. Strong
a certificate for a three years term, hut that
that demands would be made on him by some OF
the officers elect for certificates for the longer
terms which the new Constitution has guaran-
teed them. and he had procur ed an opinion
from Corporation Counsel Clark regarding his
duty Ia the premises. That opinion Is 10 the
following effect:
The revised Constitution takes effect the lat day
OF January. 1898. The municipal OfiiceTs elected Gt
election therefore entitled TO receive
tncatea OF election In accordance with the laws
IN force and for the terms provided In the existing
statutes under which such ofeers were elected The
ehect OF the Constitution upon the terms OF the
spective Ucers need not now be considered by you In
making out and issaing the certificates OF election
Although Mr.. Strongs certificate of election
IL only for two years he will hold for the three
years, for under tho Constitution as II will exist
after Jan. there can be no election for Mayor
until 1897
