 During the last few days Mfr. stan ford has flted his bond as Probate Judge He has omitted sending the clerks fee of $1. however, and accord .ingiy has net yet received his commis- sion.
 So far as the legality of the election of MT stanfoFd is concerned the Gov ernor has been of the opinion that there was rse vacancy to justify 1t. Ac- cording to lfiS understanding. the va cancy created by~the death of Judge Beck at 10 o'clock at night was less than aix months before the holding Of the election the polls of which closed at 6 o'clock ln tlze evening. A number of prominent I&WEaTs. however, have expressed different opinions in regard to the matter. mang declaring that the election was legal and binding.
 The delay in the caumission of Mfr :. Stanford as Judge has been due. to his failure to send the fec required by law. of s1 for filing expenses Of the bond. As soon as this Is received, the Secretary of State will forward the commission to Governor Jelize who will sign It. Then there will be two persons in Will cox County, each of whom win hold commissions as Probate Judge. and the dispute will be transferred to the courts.

 The section over the interpretation of which there is a dispute is Section 1s8, which reads as follows:
 vacancies in the office of any Jus- tice of the Supreme Court or Judges who hold office by election, or enancei- lors Of this State shall be filled by ap- pointment by the Governor. The ap- pointee shall hold his office until the next general election for any State of- fcer held at least six months after the vacancy occurs, and until his successor Is elected and qualified; the successor chosen at such election shall hold o1- fee for the unexpired term and until his successor is elected and qualified,
 The point at issue Is over tha clause in the section requiring that the elec- tion shall be held six months after the death of the Incumbent Judge. Judge Beck died at 10 o'clock at night, May 6. The polls on election day, exactly six months afterward. closed at o'clock in the evening. Whether or not the section by it's provision rules the elec- ffon of ] N .

 Judge Beck was elected Probate Judge of Wilcox in 1904. and, if he had lived would have held that office for six years, or until 1910. Six days after his death, Governor Jelks appointed Judge Foster his successor to i'll out the unexpirad term of the deceased, which began with the death of the former Judge While the legality of the election to the ofice was a matter of doubt in the minds of many citizens of Wilcox prior to November c, it was decided to run a candidate for the po- sition. and Mir.
