Yours truly, James Burge. Creorge town, Nov 20th, 1893 —_—_—-oe — MR. MACNUTT'S APPOINTMENT. Sir,— Saturday's Patriot, in announcing of the writs for ' the i*8ue the coming elec- tior County have been direeted to Peter Me- Nutt, Esq., and claims credit for the Gov- eTament in that “they have not shown a partizan spirit im the choice, a their op- ponents charged that they woull.” The reference to a recent illness of the Sheriff of -Pzipce.County is) but a flimsy excise for thre non-apporntment of Mr. Strong as returning officer. If he has competent to perform the duties of the | sheriff in other respects, he is surely com- | petent-to do the work of his chief in elee. tion matters, more especially as he has | done so heretofore. Without making any reference to the | } ability of Mr. McNutt, let ws see what the | law Says respecting the partisan question rhe sixty-third section of the statute under which the election ia to be held, direets } the retarning officer to appoint presiding | officers to take the poll at the several pel. | ing places, and then the following pro- | | Vision is added: “Provided that nothing | herein shall prevent the returning office from presiding in person in an electoral division ox polling district.” Under the head- | ing “Punishment of Corrupt Practices,” n the list of persons enumerated by section 117 as persons whom the Return- ing Officer shall not appoint as pi officers | “Any who has served as a member of the House of Assembly -C l in the } sess10n immediately elee- i held, if | the election takes place during the session , | | esiding lowing ; Pp | are tne fo Cr=on or Legislative Council preceding the tion, or in the session then being of the Le gislature ” The reason of this enactment is obvions.
