FOR CORONER

The office of County Coroner is a
public Office and it is customary after
a man has been elected two terms or
possibly three terms that he give up
the office, and allow some other cit

has held this office three terms and is
now asking the voters for the fourth
term. Why should one man monop-
olize a County office? Mr.. McBratney
