NOT TILL MAY.
Anti Fusion Law Imperative Until
Then.

Many inquiries are coming in to the Sec
rotary of states office about the effect
of recent legislation relating to elections
and what effect it will have on the spring
elections so near at hand. Inquirers want
hasty replies The most concern seems to
be regarding the anti-fusion law ap-
piled to city elections.
The general measure knocking out
fusion will not become a law until the
statute book IS published in May. But in
second and third class cities the offices of
city marshal, street commissioner. CLERK
and city attorney are no longer elective
The law returning these offices to ap-
pointment by the mayor was published on
February q and is in full force and eff
feet. Consequently second and third class
cities viii leave these officials out of their
elections just the same as was in vogue
Up till the trial of the experiment of max
ing them elective two years ago.
