WARD LOSES HIS POSITION
A Celebrated San Diego Case Settled
In Court
The Appointment Of the Incumbent as Dis.
trict Attorney Was Not in Ac-
cordance With Law

SACRAMENTO, May THE supreme
court has rendered an opinion in the
case of the people ex rel. A. II. Sweet,
plaintiff and respondent, VS.. NJ. l.. Ward,
defendant and appellant, San Diego
case.
Ward, the appellant, was elected district
attorney for the term commencing Janu-
airy ,, 1853, and qualified. William Darby
was elected to succeed him last November
and qualified on November 24th and sue
ceeded on December 18th.
After Darby's death the board of super
visors appointed Ward to ill the vacancy
caused thereby, and to be district attor-
ney for the term of Office to be taken at
II III. the 7th day of January. 1895" and
on the day of his appointme Ward quail
ited as the appointee to succeed Darby.
At ) p. IN. on January 1th, the super
visors declared that vacancy existed
and appointed Sweet to fill the term for
which Darby was elected. Sweet de-
manded the Office and Ward refused to
surrender it and action was brought to de-
termine the conflicting claims.
Ward contended that no vacancy in
the Office resulted from the death of
DaIuNs anu III II ulu III OtCuTTtt l1lS lly
upon his death, and the supervisors prop
erly filled it by appointing Ward.
The court holds that there was no va
cancy till January 7th, the time fixed by
law for Darby to take his office, and that
the old board ofEsupervisors could not fill
the vacancy before it occurred, or lila
vacancy which would arise in the term
OF the succeeding board.
The board could by its action neither
create vacancy nor by anticipation fill
one which was to arise in the future dur
ing the term OF its su tcessor.
The court concludes. therefore, that the
attempt of the first board to fill the va
cancy of January 23d was in excess of its
power, and void. and that the vacancy
was properly filled by the existing board
at 3 p. m. on tie 7th - ID

Mr. Eckels, the present comptroller of

careful inquiry instituted through his de-

retail houses of this country are doing,
business by means of checks drawn on
local banks and clearing houses cleared
by the banks. with very little use for
