sheriffs Ineligible For Reelection,

Mention in various counties of the in
cumbent sheriffs as candidates for re-elec-
ton has been made under a misapprehen-
sion. In Anne Arundel Sheriff Joseph H.
Bells is spoken Of in the Annapolis papers
for another term. The constitutional pro-
vision that a sheriff shall hold office for
two years and until his successor is duly
elected and qualified; shall be ineligible
for two years thereafter" has been I'M
changed except in the case of the Sheriff
Of Baltimore city. whose tenure is made
four years by the amendment of 1914.
Sheriff McNulty was reelected in 1915
under the amendment. DR.. Horace E.
Flack, executive Of the Department Of Leg
islative Reference. writes The News that
the amendment proposed at the session of
1916 designed to engraft similar pro-
vision on the Constitution in relation to
the sheriffs Of the counties was not
placed on the ballot" in that year from
the fact il was so worded as to be obscure
and uncertain in meaning" The Legisla-
ture Of 1918 rejected a proposed amend
ment to make the sheriffs now in office
eligible to reelection in 1919 and extend
ing the shrievalty tenure hereafter to four
years. When the Constitution of 1867
was adopted, sheriffs performed financial
functions that have since been given to
other officers and their terms were limited
so that prompt accounting might be
made. Baltimore News
