City Forgot It Has No Sheriff.

nominations for city officers has
brought to light the overlooked fact
that since the death of City Sheriff
James A. White, August %. there has
been no incumbent of. that Office, and
it is believed to have been forgotten
by the city officials, as one or two
to whom the fact was pointed out
stated that it had slipped by them.
The matter is not of great Importance
and the space of time has been short
no great Inconvenience having been
suffered, as there are officers enough
to serve necessary papers. The ordi-
nance provides that in such cases, the
common council shall declare the Of
fee vacant and proceed to fill the va
cancy as required by the ordinance
Itself.
