ἡ μὲν δὴ γερουσία συνέδριον Λακεδαιμονίοις κυριώτατον τῆς πολιτείας, οἱ λοιποὶ δέ εἰσιν ἄρχοντες.
The first clause is verbless: γερουσία is equated/apposed to συνέδριον, with κυριώτατον as predicate adjective and Λακεδαιμονίοις as dative of reference; the second clause has οἱ λοιποί as subject and ἄρχοντες as predicate nominative.

τοῖς δὲ ἐφόροις καὶ Βιδιαίοις πέντε ἀριθμὸν ἑκατέροις οὖσι, τοῖς μὲν τοὺς ἐπὶ τῷ Πλατανιστᾷ καλουμένῳ καὶ ἄλλους τῶν ἐφήβων ἀγῶνας τιθέναι καθέστηκεν, ἔφοροι δὲ τά τε ἄλλα διοικοῦσι τὰ σπουδῆς μάλιστα ἄξια καὶ παρέχονται τὸν ἐπώνυμον, καθὰ δὴ καὶ Ἀθηναίοις τῶν καλουμένων ἐννέα ἐπώνυμός ἐστιν εἷς ἄρχων.
The opening dative phrase is a resumptive topic: five ephors and five Bidiai constitute the officials; τοῖς μέν introduces the subgroup whose established duty is to set contests, while ἔφοροι δέ resumes the ephors. The final clause is an analogy: among the so-called nine Athenians, one archon is eponymous.
