PREFACE.

Tke exceedingly kind reception given to the writer's previoua work upon tho law^ of Agency has encouraged him to offer also the following, which is, in Bome respects, a companion volaine to the other.

While engaged npon the other work, the writer was constantly impressed with the great number of important qnestions, similar to those he was then considering, bnt relating to the law of pub- lic agents or officers, and which had never been fully treated. A few of them had, it is true, been made the subject of special treatises, such as the subjects of elections, sheriff, official bonds, and the application of extraordinary remedies like mandamus, qob warranto and injunction. A few others had been incident- ally considered in relation to other subjects. There was still, how- ever, a large class of important questions which had never been specially considered in any treatise, and no attempt had ever been made by any author, English or American, so far as the writer is awafe, to give a connected and continuous discussion of the whole subject. There seemed to him, therefore, to be a real need for such a book, and he has attempted to supply it.

He has endeavored to begin at the beginning, showing what are public offices and who are public officers, and to give in con- secutive chapters a view of the whole field, showing who are eligible to public office ; how they may be elected or appointed, and qualified ; how they may surrender, abandon or forfeit their rights and authorities ; what authority they possess ; how they should execute it ; what liabilities attach to their acts ; what rights they possess and what rights are possessed by the public ; and finally by what remedies their duties and liabilities may be

enforo^d*

The work is divided into five parts or books, and each book is subdivided into consecutive chapters. The arrangement adopted

may not be the best possible, bat it seemed to the writer to be oonvenient and reasonably adapted to the purpose in view. No little difficnity has been experienced in determining the proper limits to be fixed to the work, and it may be that others would not agree with those upon which the writer has finally deter- mined.

In a few cases the subject has run so closely parallel to that of agency, that the writer has reproduced a few sections from his work upon that subject, while the chapters upon the liability of public officers to private actions are an enlargement of the sec- tions devoted to that subject in the former work. With these exceptions, the contents of this work are entirely new.

In this work the writer has pursued the plan, which has been generally approved in the other, of giving in the text or notes quite full illustrations and quotations from leading and charao- teristic cases upon the subject. He has also added parallel ref- erences to the American Decisions, American Reports, and American State Eeports, as well as to the various Reporters. Particular attention has been given to the latest cases, and these, it is believed, have been quite fully cited.

In treating certain of the special questions, the writer has derived much assistance from the previous labors of those who have devoted treatises to what he has been compelled to com- press into chapters, and to such treatises the reader must be referred for fuller discussions. These are particularly Judge MoOrabt's standard work upon Elections, Mr. High's excellent treatise upon Extraordinary Legal Remedies, and Judge Coo- lby's valuable work on Torts.

The writer desires also to acknowledge his indebtedness to his publishers, Messrs. Callaghan & Go., of Chicago, who, in this instance as in the former, have spared no pains that the book might not fail for want of proper mechanical execution, and who have treated the writer with uniform courtesy and consideration.

Hoping, therefore, that this volume may be found not less worthy than the other of the generous judgment of the profes- sion, the writer submits it to their consideration.
