The County Court of this county has
failed to comply with the law in layiRg OF
the county into voting precincts as enacted
bv the last Legislature. The law requires
this to be done at the irst session Of the
court after the passage Of the law. The
law has now been in force about eighteen
months aud there has been in the mean
time several sessions OF the court without
any action on the matter Undoubtedly
the action of the court on the matter now
would not be in compliance with the law,
as the law states without any provisions
that this districting of the cOcnJy should
be at the first meeting OF the County Court
after the passage OF the law. The court
having failed TO comply with the law, 1t IS
quite likely it will require another act of
Legislature to legalize the action Of the
court should they proceed 70 district tne
county at its next session. This will likely
give a chance for some hair-splitting in
case of a contest OF any kind at the coming
election.
