The opinion

RAMSEY, Judge

(dissenting.)—The majority of the court having determined that the Governor is authorized, under the law, to appoint a special district judge, I will at some convenient time write my views. My opinion is that the Governor is not authorized in any case to appoint a special district judge. I will at some convenient time write my views on this question.
