DECISION ON Biennial
Election Law by Attorney General
Godard-is Important.
APPoINIvE AND FOLLOWER.

Topeka, July 15--Attorney General
GODDARD handed down important
opinion constituting the supreme courts
decision on the biennial election law,
which has been declared constitution
al 1t follows
County officers now in Office will
continue to hold. their Office without
reelection or appoint ent during the
ensuing year, except in cases w here
sheriffs and treasurers are now filling
their second terms AS to other cases
here will be vacancies which can
be filed by appointment except in
cases of death, resignation or removal
ssWhere sheriffs and county treas
urers are filing their second terms,
vacancies will arise Immediately upon
the expiration of those terms, which
must be filed by appointment and
to which appointment thepresent in
cumbents are not eligible.
1T is my Judgment that sheriffs and
treasurers now holding their first
terms will not be eligible for second
term if they continue to hold eifice
during the ensuing year
ssWhile the title of the law is broad
enough to cover all county officers,
except county commissioners. the body
of the act seems to restrict its applica-
ton to the officers named, and, there
fore, it does not in my Judgment,
affect the election of county high
school trustees.

From the London Evening News.
An American prepared to admit that

bit more thrown in" is being that one
does not meet with every day. 1t may APP

An Evening News representative who
went to ask these gentlemen about their
impression quite expected TO find their lips
curled in transatlantic disdatn and TO
hear how much finer the parks are across
the water. But no such thing happened.
It's like this" said Mr.. Moore: You
must come to us to find out how TO build
yachts, and we come to you to learn how
to make parks" And then, though loosely
pressed, he refused to say anything, ek-
cept what was good about Europe's public
gardens. Washington has a great amb-
ton to be as well parked any other city
in the old world or new. Hence the com
mission which has been through England
to Paris, Vienna, Buda Pesth and all over
Europe.
