BOOTHS FEE BILL.

The Booth Fee Bill, which passed
the Ohio House of Representatives
is creating something of sensation
among county officials Throughout
the State. 1t divides the, State into
six districts, thus:
All counties having a population
at the last Federal census of more
than 100000, and less than $50, 600
shall constitute counties of the first
class.
Counties having a population Of
10000 and less than 100000, shall
constitute counties of the second
class.
Counties having a population OF
10000 and less than 60,000, shall
constitute counties of the third class.

PLAINS!

COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 31st 1879.
ED. DEMocRAT.-Dear Sir: l am
ready at any time to explain my vote
on the Booth fee bill.
On Friday May 10th 1878, a fee
bill substantially the same as the
Booth bill, in fact a substitute for
that bill, with some of its incongrui-
ties left out, was passed by the House
by a vote of SO to "a. Every Repub-
lican present voted for the bill .ex-
cepting eight. These were Dawson,
Dow, Fenton, Herrick, Monahan,
Sage. Townsend and Williamson. 1
voted for the bill, and it is now in
the Senate Committee on fees and
salaries. This bill did not pass I'M
der Booths name, but under Poe's.
Mr.. Booth, in order to make himself
solid with his own constituents, felt
a little ambition to have his particu-
lar bill passed, and so it was brought
fup at this session and was passed.
/ did not vote for it for the reason
that the bill passed last winter is a
much better n and will probably
be reported back to the Senate favor
ably, and will no doubt become a
law. Another reason l did not vote
for the Booth bill was because the
reduction of fees in -Preble county
was unfair, and too small. / have a
bill applying to Preble county alone,
which will make a fairer reduction
and at least double the amount that
would be accomplished by the Booth
bill or any other bill presented.
l hope this explanation will be
satisfactory to yourself and readers.
Respectfully yours,
D. G. STUBBS.

According to the provision of a
general law passed by the Legisla,
ture in 1877, it would seem that
County Auditors are not necessarily
effected by the reduction eontemplat-
ed in Booths fee bill. Section l, o.
vol, IA, page It's, provides that Coun,
ty Auditors be paid $1,000 per an.
mum where the voting population OF
a county is two thousand, and SIS
for each additional one hundred
voters. Another provision of the
same law authorizes the Commission
ers TO allow 25 per cent. more than
this sum for clerk hire. whenever a
decennial re-valuation of property is
made. The next re-valuation is to
take placein 1880.

time.

The Cincinnati Enquirer asks that
the salaries of the Supreme Judges
of Ohio be increased. If the En-
qairer had advocated the measure
several years back we could see the
justice Of it, but can't now. This is
not the time to advocate the increase
of salaries Of any Of our public
servants, but for the decrease of
them. However, we are willing that
the pay of these gentlemen shall re-
main as it is, but no increase at pre-
sent Of their salaries.

Senator Pendleton's declaration
that resumption is the Legitimate re-
suit of the "Ohio idea" will startle
the Republican politicians who ex-
pect to get all the credit for bring
ing about specie payments again.
His theory that the "Ohio idea" now
is to improve the greenback and not
degrade it, will confound them, and
they may as well prepare for a great
deal of confusion on the financial
question.
