TWO CUkl BOROUGH
SOLICITOR'S OFFICE
H. M. North, Jr., Democratic In
cumbent, Claims to Hold
Over at Columbia
Sptcial to The Telegraph
Columbia, Pa., Feb. s.—Columbia
how enjoys the distinction of having
two borough solicitors. Hugh M.
North. Jr.. a Democrat, was chosen
by the borough council in March,
1911, for a term of three yeurs. The
council at Its organization in January
elected J. E. Senft, a Republican, as
Ms successor on the assumption that
Mr. North's term would expire in
March of this year. The act of Assem
bly of last year, which declares that
borough officers whose terms expired
in 1914 should hold over two years.
Mr. North thinks applies to his office
of solicitor, and he says he will con
tinue to exercise the functions of so
licitor. The council is Republican
and when Mr. Scnft was chosen it was
expected that he would assume his
duties in March, some of the members
being of the opinion that the act of
Assembly does not apply to officials
chosen by legislative bodies. No move
ment has as yet been made to deter
mine the status of the situation and
meanwhile both men are hopeful of
serving.

laet night and the members received
a big surprise when presented with a
