County Commissioner Muddle.

The ready-made republican county ticket
which was placed before the voters of Cecil
at the recent election seems to be a legal mis-
fit regarding the long term County Commits
sioner part of it, and will likely be referred to
the Court to adjust. According to the present
law the county is divided into three commits
sioner districts composed of three election dis
tricts each, one commissioner from two of
these three commissioner districts to be elect
ed every two years, with the long or four-year
term to rotate in these districts. The Fourth,
Fifth and Ninth election districts were to be
represented on the Board this term by long
term commissioner. The democratic nominee
for that office. Mr. Hess of the Fourth district'
had as his successful opponent Mr.. jackson of
the Seventh, the latter bein { in the short term
commissioner district this year.
The point now to be decided is whether Mr..
jackson is eligible for the Office to which he
was elected. Mr.. Hess has stated he would
refuse the Office if it were rendered him by the
Election Supervisors, and in case the present
law is found to be constitutionalit it will neces-
state another election for long term County
Commissioner.
