that the law enacted by the last legis.

in all counties of Washington save
those of the first class, is unconstitu.

oner for two terms and who, had not
the new law been passed, would have
been barred from a third term. may
yet be coroner; at least, he may until
a successor be appointed.
Prosecuting Attorney J. E. Stewart
doesn't want the job. If DR.. Hunter
does, he can have it, says Mr.. Stewart.
That is the offhand opinion, as well
as preference, expressed by the coun-
ty attorney before taking the time to
study the case thoroughly. Without
passing, now, ON the merits of the

ed to the supreme court, Mr.. Stewart
inclines to the opinion that, if the
