passed compelling candidates run
ming for offices TO resign any pub.
lie Office they may mold MS soon as
they have announced themselves
AS Candidates, except IN case " hen
Il candidate is to succeed himself
Ii such al act would be passed by
the Legislature, those who are
holding offices would not be So
willing and ever ready TO enter tue
race for election to offices which
are more remuueratIve than the
one they are fortunate To hold. as
they would fear meeting with de-
feat and thereby losing their lob.
but as 1t is now an office holder
can run for any office and though
he is defeated still holds on TO lis
old job. Not only is this an H.
justice but on account of that
many a good man will not become
a candidate.
For Instance, If we take the con.
test now on IN the Parish of ST.
Bernard for sheriff, both of the
candidates are holding fue posi-
lions. one Is Judge of the Court
Of Appeals while the other is a
District Attorney, and it matters
not who Is defeated still he will |
hold on 10 his old position, but if |
there would be a law compelling
Candidates to resign the offices
hey hold before they become can
ildates for other offices, no doubt.
hey would not be So willing and
