CHOOSING SUPERVISORS.
New Method to Be Followed BY Towns
Under Amended Law.
From Thursdays Daily.

From thursdays Daily.
At the regular town elections next
March change will be inaugurated in
the method of electing township SUI
pervisors, says The New Ulm Review
During their last session the members of
the Minnesota state legislature altered
the old system greatly and the law
they created went into effect January
LIST of this year.
AS changed the laws affects township
supervisors and justices of the peace.
Heretofore three supervisors have been
elected each spring for one year but
this has been changed so that in March,
1904, three candidates will be chosen for
terms of one, two and three years, and
in future one supervisor will be named
at each election for three year term.
The other change provides that JUS
tices of the peace shall only be elected
once every two years, except in case
where it is necessary to fill a vacancy.
The town clerk, treasurer, assessor, con-
stables and road overseer will hold for
one year as in the past. Chapter Ga,
of the general laws of 1903, as amend
ed, reads as follows:
"There shall be elected in the year
1904, at the annual town meeting in
each town, three supervisors, one of
whom, shall be elected for three (3)
years, one for two ~ years, and one for
one ~ year, so that one shall go out
each year. The number of years for
which each is elected shall be indicat-
ed on the ballot, and one shall be desig-
mated and known as chairman. At each
annual town meeting thereafter one
supervisor shall be elected for three
years to fill the place of the one whose
term expires at that time. There shall
also be elected at the annual town meet
ing in each town one town clerk, one
treasurer, one assessor, two justices of
the peace, two constables and one over
seer of the highways for each road dis
trict in said town; but justices of the
peace shall be elected only once in two
years, except to fill vacancies.
