In the los counties of the state of
Kansas the sheriffs and county treas
urers are facing a serious question as
to their tenure of office. The sheriffS
on their second terms are the most con-
cerned as to what shall happen to them
by reason of the biennial election law
They hope to be permitted to retain
their offices another year after their
elected term expires the second Monday
in January.
Governor Stanley is celebrating
to appoint other men to their
places or not. 1t is conceded that the
first term men will retain their office,
but they are also worried lest II they
stay another year that will operate
against them for an elective second
term.
The county treasurers are similarly
placed, but their terms do not end till
October 15 1902 and appointments if
any are made. will rest with the county
comm iSSiOnerS.
These questions are the most import
ant before the conference of sheriffs
and treasurers that began here today.
The appended list shows the division of
sheriffs and treasurers according to
whether they are serving their first or
second terms.
Sfxty-two sheriffs are serving first
term and forty-three, second term; sixty
one treasurers are serving first term
and forty-four, second term
