Honnitield moved that it be consid-
cred encrosscd and placed on its third
reading and final passage. Carried,
Ponniiield believed II 20 he 10 the
interest of the State to allow that
officer a deputy. The business OF III"
Office is 80 great that i deputy = re-
nuired. This bill ohviatcS the neceS-
sity OF employing additional counsel
in cases which come hciorethe I.cgiSla-
tur, for compensate as in The
RhoadcS case.
Hall thought this bin if passed
would make no difference about the
necessity of occasionally employing
additional counsel III important cases.
II i Not clerks that are wanted, but
brains. The Office has been run
heretofore without Il clerk, and can bc
hereafter. The Assembly has been
1 running ON the plea ol economy and
are disposed To throw the odium Of a
contrary curse ON The .uIte. They
should not do il wi,h his consent.
Moore said the people thought last
November thH, reform was needed.
| This officer, elected nn that platform,
comes now and applies Tor an assist
ant. If Inc is unable 30 perform the
duties of his Office ho should resign.
Cleveland asked If the gentleman j.
aware OF the duties of the Attorney
General. For one he should no. allow
any political feelings To govern his
course on this bill.
Hazlett said the Constitution fixed
the salary At S2,50o per year. Since
that time the duties imposed on that
officer nave been largely increased.
These duties were not contemplated
AT the time the Office was created ut
the organization Of the State, and 1t Is
but an act of Justice that the salary
should be increased.
Mills opposed the bill. lie never
wanted to ran for an Office which Inc
could not ill. The present officer
knew the duties and the compensation
when he was elected.
BonuiHeld said If this officer i 20 be
refused a deputy for the reason That
none WAS provided when he was elect
ed. the laws giving deputies 10 the
State Treasurer. Controller, surveyor
General, and every officer bat this,
should bc repealed, for there was Un
provision made Tor them ia the Con
S~ticujiou-'ot even for a Private Sec
rctarv for the Governor.

Bonniield made the point that Il
lie Senate has just refused To pass the bi
er for a deputy in the Attorney General
Office, because that officer knew h
:, duties and compensation when he too
the office. Does not the principle a
ply equally TO the Treasurer? 70
propose To change the law respectiI
