All officers, elective and appointive, shall make oath, before someone authorized to administer oaths, that they will support the Constitution of this State and will faithfully and impartially discharge the duties of their respective offices to be best of skill and judgment; that they will not, during their term of office, become pecuniarily interested, directly or indirectly, in any contract with the City or the purchase of any supplies therefor. When the officer shall have made such oath in writing and filed the same with the City Clerk, and shall have given bond, if any is required, he shall be considered as having qualified for the office to which he was elected or appointed.
The bonds, obligations and other writing taken in pursuance of any provisions of this Act shall be made payable to the City of Mannington, and the respective persons and their heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, bonds and sureties thereby shall be subject to the same proceedings on the said bond, obligation, or other writing for enforcing the conditions of the terms thereof, by motion or otherwise, before any court of record held in and for the County of Marion. The premiums of all bonds given as provided in this section shall be paid from the appropriate fund of the City.
