Another fact of importance in this eo'inection : we hold that, under our State -Ci-nstitn-ioji, Governor Colquitt is ineligible for ce election to tlie po sition of Governor. The Constitution says, in Article. V., : Suction 1, and Paraoi Sjili 11: ‘•The Executive power ' shall lie vested in a Governor, who shall hold hi* c.tlice dnrinir the terra ofltwo years, and until-his sueecs-or shall lie chosen and qualified. He shall not he eligi ble to re-election, alter tlie expiration of a second term, for the period of four years. He shall have a salary of 83,000 dollars per annum, (until other, wise piovided by a 'aw passed l,y a two-il-irds vote of both branches of the General Assemble) which shall not be increased or diiiituislied during the perii'd for which he shall have been elected ; nor shall he teceh-ve, will in that tint--, uuj «>th« r eniolii* inent from tliu Uuite-l Slates, or ei ther of them, or from any foreign (lower. But this reduction of aalnry sliall not apply to the present t -rm ot the present Governor. “Par. III. The first election for Gov enter, under tltis Constitution, shall be held on the first Wednesday in October, 1880.” * * * Now, we submit that Governor Colquitt, having held tlie office for four years, is just as amenable to this pro vision ot tlie organic law as any other mao in the Si ate. The latter portion of Paragraph Il.'.'distinctly *a\a, “that the r< due-lion of salaty shall not ap ply to the present t»rm of the preaent Governor.” If he was exempt, by reason of Ids incumbency of the office at the time the Ctohstitniion was made, front the provisions ot tlie Constitution shortening the term of the office, it would haye as distinctly said so, as i: did iu regard to his salary. Again, Paragraph lit. says “tlie first election for Governor, .under this Constitu tion, shall Ite held on the first Wednesday ip October, 1880.” Can Governor Colquitt |ioswbIy be re- elected. Wider jlhia Constitution 1 His re-election, in the face of such plain provisions of our new Constitution, wonld unquestionably bean open vio lation of the spirit, yea, indeed, the plain letter of tiie organic law of our State. Hence we hold that Governor Colquitt is ineligible for re-election, and could not be nominated and re elected Governor of Georgia, without esVatilishitio the. dangerous precedent of Utterly disregarding aud overrid ing the eonstitiitionallaw of the State, and that loo in the very, first election for Governor under our new Concti- totion.
