Mandamus for salary of himself and seven others, as patrolmen, aggregating $26,327.79. Judgment for defendants and relator appealed. All of •¡he claimants except Roe and Hazelhorst had fully served out their appointed terms and were merely holdovers when they were dropped, and hence come within the rule laid down in State ex rel.

The judgment of the circuit court is for the right party and it is affirmed.

All concur.
