IVILLPLACENAMES
ON THE BALLOT
District Attorney George Xeuner
today gave his decision in regard to
the question whether or not the of
fice of justice of the peace shall be
placed on the ballot at the coining
primary election. The question has
arisen over ai recent amendment
which provides that judges shall be
elected every six years, whether or
not this also applies to justices of
the peace. j
Mr. Lenox, the county clerk, did!
not know whether or not he should I
place the names of the candidates'
for this office on the ballot or not
and so asked for the opinion which,
was given. j
Attorney Neuner held that as the!
petitions had been filed that the;
chrk had no authority if.o -(reject
them. 1 he matter as to the length
of office can be decided after the j
election when It will probably be
passed upon by the attorney general.
An opinion by ex-Attorney Gen
eral A. M. Crawford received by the
present Justice, I. B. Riddle at the
time that he was elected to the po
sition held that the six year term
does not apply to Justices of the
peace. Mr. Riddle wrote to Attorney
Genoral Crawford shortly before the
election in regard to the matter and
received the following reply: v
'Replying to yours of January 30,
relative to the length of the term of
justice of the peace, beg to advise
u that such justice serves for a
riod of two years, under section
31 85. L. O. L. The amendment of
section 7 of the state constitution,
providing that tho judges of the su
preme court and other courts shall
be elected by the voters of the state
or of their respective districts for
the tern of Bix years, .does .not apply
to Justices of the peace, .the ' only j
judges therein referred to being
those considered as forcing part of
the state's judicial system, that is,
justices of the supreme court, circuit
court and county court. "' '
""Therefore, it Is my opinion jus
tices of the peace will only hold for
two .years.
"Very truly yours,
"A. M.CRAWFORD."
