The law prov hiing for the change .of system is not in the statute lumka. H will not be printed in the statutes until the acts for next y?*ar ure pub lished. This happened in this way : The General Assembly, nt its last s?*s sion, passed the new comity govern ment bill, and provided that it should go into effect in several counties shoit ly after its adoption. Representations . vert? made to .Governor Ellet he that it ?would not bo well for tho new system to go int?> effect during last spring nu?! last summer in the counties indicated, because of certain wort* then in pro gress, which might be jeopardized by a chango of officers. Tho act was "helli np," and it iloes not go into effect until after the assembling of the General As sembly. It has neither been approved nor disapproved by Governor Ellerbe; but simply goes into effect by the .operations of the constitution, three days after the session of the General Assembly begins. Tho act will, no ^loubt, gt? into effect on the 1st of Feb ruary, when the new commissioners are to begin their term of office, under the provisions of the bill. It maybe that the machinery can be started be fore that time. The act provides : Section 1 provides "That the office of County-Supervisor, as now provided hy law, shall continue, and the suc cessors of tho present supervisors shall he elected by tho people at the* next general election, with a term of ??thee for two years, and until their succes sors shall be elected nnd qualified.''
