ALL TAKE OFFICE AT ONCE.
Township Servants Go in With COun.
ty Dads Under New Law.

Many township officers-elect have
been calling at the office Of County
Clerk King during the last two
weeks, inQuiring when they may or
must take office. Some of them have
held township offices before, prior
to two years ago when a new law
governing these offices went into eff
feet. Under the law which is now
operative, township officers assume
their duties on the second Monday
in January, which is the date on
which most Of the county officers
are sworn in. Formerly it was GUS
tomary for township officers to take
charge OF their offices at any tine
after the election when they Glanced
to get hold Of their certificate Of
election. The new law proves much
more satisfactory. as there IL q def
mite date on which every township
officer must take his seat.

CONTEST CASE
COMES WEDNESDAY.
Friends Of Capper Will Watch the
Ballots, Too.

If Mrs. Anderson gets recount
of the ballots in the county in the
contest filed for the office of regis

of Arthur Capper will be on hand,
just for curiosity's sake, to see how
many OF the ballots thrown out in
the county were really legal ballots
for him. There were ESQ ballots
thrown out in the county and the
confession for register of deeds says
that q large number of these bal
lots were legal ballots and should
have been counted for the Republi-
can candidate. II Mrs. Anderson
can gain enough ballots to elect her
register OF deeds 1t is very probable
that enough OF these ballots were
legal Capper ballots to have elected
him governor of the state. The con-
test will be heard Wednesday morn

The vice president of the United
States died some time ago and no
successor has been elected for his
position. President Taft is planning
to go out of the United States to
visit the Panama canal. There is
no president of the senate, two SEN

SO, while Mr.. Taft is away, who will
perform the duty of president If
