Biennial Election Law Void.
The supreme court holds th“ biennial
| election law unconstitutional because
it seeks to extend the term of consti
tutional officers. Only one bill is held
unconstitutional. This bill included
many county officers. Th<* court holds
that the inducement for the passage of
| the law was the insertion of the clauses
regarding county officers, and for this
reason the whole bill fails.
As a result there will be an election
j this fall for one judge of the supreme
! court, two regents of the university,
and-for the following county officers:
Clerk,.treasurer, sheriff, county judge,
superintendent, coroner and surveyor
As h furthea result of the decision the
terms of the county assessor, the regis
ter of deeds, county commissioners and
county supervisors have been ‘ex
tended. The exception is made because
j these terms are extended in separate
: bills which were not in question in the
: court It is not believed that any suits
j will be instituted to question these
^separate laws. There is nothing in the
1 decision of the court showing that they
i are unconstitutional. the decision deal
ing only with constitutional officer*.
