Mr, C-1!, Mussenburg Announces Him self a Candidate for County Treasurer. IS AN UNKNOWN OFFICE IN HIDE The County Has Been Without s T^esi- artr Twjnlj-lly* Yean, Although, According to Mr* Mmnnburg, . It !■ KntUled to One* Considerable surprise was manifested yesterday over the appearance of a ticket for the county election to be tae’.d on January 2, containing^ tho names cf all the Democratic nominees for county offices, hut with nho pome of C. B. 'Mjsseuburg for county treas urer, County treasurer for Bibb county I* an unknown office 'to Jho people of the county, and everybody except a very four intimalte friends of Mr. Massen- berg 'Who saw tlie tlckat were at x loss to know iwhat such a ticket mettnt. Knowing that Bbb had not had a treasurer,^teioitvn -and rcoognized as Mich, for ithe-dM-st ttvedty yeurs, « Tel- egraiph w®orteff,-toto whose bands one of the tickets hatfbeen placed, Bought Mr. 'Mtifisenberg and .asked aim tout "Yes, I tan a candidate fo^oufrty treusufer,” said Mr. Msawmbrirgr- "as you will see by thl» ticket.” || ( - “But Is there such an office, and if so why lias not some one been filling It?" the reporter asked. “Yes, there is such on office, but I don’t suppose anybody has thought about running for It. or really knew of tt. You see,-about twenty yearn ago the legrslature. tn creating the board of county commissioners abolished the office of treasurer and made the coro- niiHBtoners treasurer. This wus dearly unconatlutlnal. as the legislature had no snore right to abolish the office of treasurer limn tt has to abolish the office of governor.’’ "I suppose you have taken legal ad vice," said the reporter. "Yes; 1 huvv consulted with tiyo-rif tho beslt lawyers to the etty, and Khvy way there la no .possible doubt about lil-.o unconsi:*tuttanaltey of tlln; amt of the legtaluUire tm mbolllshlng the office." Furolrar conversatlcu with Mr.'-AIas- HKVbmlg brought out the fact bhat lie intended Ito cun for treasurer t.vo y-viro ago, but decided to wait uiv.il this ytur. He s.itld ttaat the county was cltUriv ci,lulled Ito such an offlou and he might a* well till h as unybody, TEio ufltoe !s ono of fees, and ,«ie trdiisufer SKSam- j/eHod to igtoe u ibond. The duties of Iho .treasurer uine to pay out all county money* on orders from the cctmnibBlon- eix, or, to other words, Ito met os cash ier of nhi) ciaunty. The last Incumbent of the office was A. W, Gibson. After he went out of of fice the county commissioners took charge und since then have acted as treasurer. Whether tho county commissioners will aurrender the office to Mr. Massenburg tr h* Is elected is not yet known, and a complicated legal tight may grow out of tho matter. At any rsto, further develop ments will bo awaited with Interest. As Mr. Mossanburg was not tn the pri mary for County officers the Kars nre down fo a* many candidates os desire to enter tho rac* for treasure, but so far as known no one else has any Intention of unninc far tho office. Mr. Mussenburg was for n number of year* lax collector of the county and It was generally con ceded that ho had tho office as long as he wanted It. but about six yean ago ho declined to bo re-elected, lie is a man who has Iho respect and confidence of the people and served the county faithfully when In office.
