I'm MennOriaDa.

On the 18th of January last. there passed
away-to rest, MRS. ISABELLA A. ADAMS.
the widow of Hon. Simeon r. Adams late of
Paulding, in Jasper county. Mrs. Adams
spent her life in Paulding. She was mar

1t was my fortune to know Mrs, Adams in
her prosperity, and in the gloomy hours of

except the venerable mother of Mrs. dams.
Her daughter has gone; the children of he-
daughter are scattered, and We stop to con.
slider, for moment, the end of a beautiful
life, closed with the days of Mrs. Adams
and to commend to God the aged grand
mother and wandering children. The end
OF life made beautiful, is that of
which we write. Among the mon
uments of this good woman is the
CLARION. Her husband was not more the
FOUNDER of the paper than herself, and to
the DAY of her death she spoke with feeling

out of these "perquisites' it will be

possible that these men whom ne has
drawn to his assistance might be willing
now and then to put in extra service for
him without compensation, whereas IT
they were doing this extra work for the
State they would be unreasonable enough
to want to be paid for it out of the con
tingent fund. Nothing can be saved by
this measure but good deal can be lost.
With this view of the effect and tenor
of the measure, and with entire Difference
to the majority of the House, we would
respectfully suggest that it would be
proper thing for the Senate to reject.

equipped over this line at an average cost
of 5000 per mile by this arrangement
According to Powhattan Robinson's esti-
mate 1913 miles of the route surveyed by
him would cost s3,000,000. The line
here proposed, twice the length, and
opening up perhaps three times the dor
mant resources of the State, can be built
for half the money.
The plan of building this road mainly
by convict labor would be very popu
lar measure, because it would remove the
bulk of this labor from active competi-
tson with our mechanics, farmers and fac
tories. In the minds of many of our
people the employment of convicts to any
large extent upon our farms tends to de-
grade the business of agriculture, the
proudest calling of our people. While
we may not share this sentiment, still it
is we'll to consider it, and if our Legisla-
tnre can open up profitable field for the
work of these convicts without coming in
antagonism with the pride or prejudice
of any of the free citizens of the State,
they will do very sensible and timely
thing. But here is great work which
ought to be done, and promises more re-
turn than any and all others, and here is
the labor to do it. The present lessees
Of the Penitentiary are energetic, public
spirited and driving men. The State
might be searched from one end to the
other in vain for two more suitable men
to manage this vast interest or to push
forward an enterprise like this railroad.
This being fact, the Legislature can
safely and properly extend their lease,
if by so doing they can lay the founda-
ton for the construction of this road
We believe that this is the time to in.
augurate this enterprise, and that the
main difficulty of its construction can be
overcome by wise cooperation with
and direction of the labor of the Peni
Tertiary.

A Genuine Reform Measure.

The bill introduced in the Senate by
Mr.. Barry, and which has passed that
body, to reduce the judicial expenses of
the counties is a genuine reform measure.
The burden of taxation is not 80 much
in the support of the State Government,
as in the county administrations. 1t
may be all we'll enough to cut down SAL
aries of State officers, where they
will admit of it, but that is saving of a
few hundred dollars at most; but to cut
down county expenses is reform worthy
of accomplishment Indeed, Mr.. Barry s
bill, if it should become Law, will save
to the taxpayers from fifty to seventy
five thousand dollars year.

PROCEEDINGS OF BOARDS OF SUPER
vIsoRs.-We observe in the legislative
proceedings the introd uction of bills
authorizing, and in some instances COM
polling Boards of Supervisors in certain
counties to have their proceedings pub,
lished. This is correct, and it would be
we'll to have general law on the subject.
The Supervisors are the legislators of
the several counties; and their proceed
ings should be published in detail for the
information of every tax payer. Under
Radical rule, Supervisors were forbidden
to have their proceedings published at
the expense of the county, and swindling
contracts and jobs were consummated
and paid for before the people knew of
their existence. We hope the Legisla-
ture will pass law requiring Supervi-
sors to publish their proceedings, at a
cost rot to exceed what might be reason
able compensation. 1t would prove to
be measure of economy to tax pay ers.

The Auditors Office.

ne OLARlON mas reform record OF
which it has no csuse to blush and we do
not intend to go back upon it, but we
would respectfully suggest that the fea-
ture in the Fee and Salary Bill, which
passed the House yesterday, doing away
entirely with the perquisites which attach
to the Auditors office and providing q
contingent fund, is neither timely nor
an economical measure. According to
our understanding of the bill it pro-
perly leaves the perquisites which
attach to the Treasury and Secretary of
State Departments, and strikes out alone
those which pertain to the Auditors of
fee. Why this discrimination?
Heretofore the Auditors office has
been sort of favorte department with
the Legislature. There is where the
bulk of the drudgery of government is
performed. 1t is place of immense re-
sponsibility and endless work, and the
Legislature heretofore has not be-
grudged a fair compensation in the
way of perquisites for extra work.
For the last eight years this office
has been in Radical hands. The
present incumbent inaugurates a new
era-a Democratic era-in the Auditor
office He comes fresh from the very
hearts of the people, redolent of the
inspiration Of the masses to restore the
integrity OF the Government as we'll as
! its economy. Nevertheless the bill
seems susceptible of the construction that
the Auditor is not fit to be entrusted with
fees, and that even the contingent fund
to pay for extra work is not safe in his
hands-that extra work is needed he
must not contract for and compensate
the labor according to his own ideas of
its value, but he must pay for it accord
ing to the judgment and order of the
Governor. 1t virtually puts the clerical
force of this office under the super
vision of the Governor instead of
under the Auditor who was elected by
the people to fill the Office, and has given
heavy bond for his faithful perform
ance Of the duties and responsibilities of
his place. 1t puts one State officer un-
der the surveillance of another in way
the Constitution and the people never
designed, and thus degrades it to mere
quartermasters department to an army
division.
We are well satisfied that members do
not desire to put an indignity upon the
present incumbent of the Auditors of
fee, but is it not apparent that the bill
has this appearance. And whence the
necessity? How much will the State
gain by it? Five hundred dollars under
the most favorable working would more
than cover it. In fact the effect would
be to throw wet blanket over the Au-
ditor and ali his assistants, paralyze, to a
considerable extent, their zeal and pride in
its behalf, mar the public service, and
cost the State great deal more than the
present arrangement. These so-called
