be favored leaving the pay within the dis
erection of the Judge, 80 that the court may
allow such tees as equity would require.
Mr.. SAYLOR was opposed to allowing
the court to determine the fees to be paid I
prosecuting attorneys.
Mr.. BALL thought the original bill was
in good shape, and was opposed to the
amendment. He thought to restrict the pay
as proposed by the amendment, would de-
feat all attempts by posecnring attorneys to
obtain aid in heavy pro- ecutions. -
Mr.. WALLING thought it good economy
on the part of the State to obtain expert
enced assistants for the prosecution of
heavy criminal suits. If left to the dis |
cretion of the court, the fee would be grad
uated according to the services. He was.
therefore, opposed to the recommitment.
Mr.. LEWTON thought if the amend !
ment prevailed, SlOO would be the standard |
fixed for each suit; whereas, if lefs to the
discretion of the Judge, $25 might be, in !
most cases, very liberal fee. 5jssf
Mr.. LEETE said the question of discre-
tion ought to be left somewhere. He was
of opinion that the court would be the best
party to exercise discretion in the matter,
because the judge would have more knowl-
edge concerning the services rendered than
any one else.
The House refused to recommit the BILL
The bill was read third time, and the
question being on its passage, the yeas and
