there was some pressure to sell. and prices were

The Reform of Local Offices.

Whoever has taken in hand the reform Of
the county Offices has entered upon an nm
dertaking rs difficult ms its accomplishment
may be useful. Tho abuses complained OF
are OF long standing. and have existed, un-
ioubtedly in n greater or less degree, un-
der all administrations. BY most persons
the customary eStortons have como Ia be-
looked upon as incident to the Offices, and
lnseparable from them. A white crow
would not be half so great curiosity as q
Sheriff OF New York County whose charges
would be restricted to his strictly legal
fees. Extravagant and unlawful charges
have been made SO long that they are now
expected MS a matter of course. Sometimes
these charges are rldiculously out OF pro-
portion TO the sum allowed by law. We
have heard Of an instance in which bill Of
eighty odd dollars was presented The
statute was referred to, and a tender Of four
dollars and fraction was made. This
small percentage was accepted and the bill
recepted. But where tho amount charged
Is not too much in excess ~ tho legal fees,
1t is the practice Of lawyers To pay without
murmuring. Individually they prefer to
avoid any difficulty with the Sheriff.
II Is extraordinary that the Register
should say, as reported in one OF our con-
Temperatures, that he does not know what
the legal fees in his niIico are. as he has
never carefully examined the statute rcgu-
lating theml His excuse was that he had
not had occasion to examine them. What
more important duty could devolye upon II
public officer than to acqualnt himself with
the duties Of his Office it Is difficult to
imagine.
or course, when n man is elected to one OF
the county offices where fees arc received
he should make a thorough study Of tho
law, and SO far as the fees are fixed by
statute there should be no charge in excess
10 the amount OF one penny. II may he said
that il is Utopian TO contend for such an
administration Of any Office But II ia
nothing moro than simple honesty impera-
lively requires.
We do not suppose there would be so much
difficulty in bringing Sheriffs, who are gen
orally men Of Intelligence md character, TO
observe the law, as there would be In re-
straining the extortlons Of their subor-
dinates These look upon tho chance TO
make good thing" out Of some Job under
the Sherin as among the rich pickings by
which they are 10 be rewarded for influence
and activity in the party.
The thorough reform of all tho county
Offices would be- a good work in the interest
OF the people. 1t would diminish somewhat
the heavy burdens which Cypress labor,
We make these remarks entirely without
prejudice against any OF the present lncum-
bents Of tho Offices in question Whore
abuses have been so long continued II might
hor 10 inf t,1
ishment on the latest offenders. II the re.
form can be accomplished without that, It
will not be the less salutary For ourselves,
we have but one course TO advocate In re-
gard to all public Offices national, State.

The Accident on the Long Island
Railroad.

An accident occurred on the Long Island
Southern Railroad yesterday, by which one
passenger was killed and several were
injured. The causes Of tho accident are
differently stated. Ono account says 1t was
occasioncd by the iange Of a wheel break
ing. Another attributes it to detective ties,
representing them to be rotten and mere
punkwOod.
The source 81 the accident is a matter OF
considerable interest To the thousands Of
persons travelling over the route. II there
are ties anywhere on the road so decayed ns
TO resemble punkwood, the road is In very
unsafe condition. We remember when an
accident occurred on the old Long Island
Road, twenty years ago, by which man WAS
killed. the ties were found TO be very rotten.
The officers Of the road denied this, but it
was proven to be true by the exhibition of
portions OF the decnyed wood, taken from
the ties on the spot. After that tho road.
bed, ties, and rails were improved, and the
road has been exempt from accidents In
remarkable degree.
The present management Of the road has
