Fire.

ShawneetoWn. Ills, 21.-News is
just received from EliZsbethtOWn
that the Hardin county courthouse
with all the records was consumed
by an incendiary fire on Monday
morning. There has been a ven.
detti in progress in that county for
years and numerous killings. AS a
result the law-abiding people took
hold OF the matter and caused in
dictments to be found against large
numbers Of these turbulent charRc-
ters. 1t is the general belief that
the court house was fired for the
purpose Of destroying records Of
these indictments, in order to en-
barraSs proceedings against them.

Ths pistrlct Attornsys.

The Governor, IN his message recon.
Imends the propriety of placing the Dis.
trict Attorneys upoa salary. The
recommendation has excited cons;dera.
bic interest among tbs members of the
bar throughout the state. and very
grta. interest among the District Attor-
neys themselves. There is much to be
said in regard to this matter. The
recommendation is certainly not with
out merit in more aspects than one
There are temptations before officers
prosecuting in theinterests OF the public
which carries with each prosecution mat
ter of dollars and cents to the prosecuting
counsel. The necessity the public pros
ecutor is under to look after his per
sonal interests in the collection # fees
and perqaisites during the terms of each
court takes just that much Of his time
from his public duties and his faithful
discharge Of the responsible trust in his
hands. Offenders realize this and take
advantage of the situation not infre
quently by compromising on the costs,
and light sentence with the aid of the
prosecuting attorney.
On the other hand, human nature
asserts itself in every walk of life. The
incentive to make legitimate per
quisites from the Office is a powerful
aid in bringing mliefactors t. justice. /
II has been suggested that when the of
flee is made to depend on public salary /
the prosecuting attorney becomes the I
counsel for the accused in the grand /
jury room TO avoid labor and the dis
greeable necessity of prosecuting un-
pleasant business We have not given
the matter enough thought to advocate
the recommendation or rejection of It
but of one thing We are persuaded
The District Attorneys should be fairly
treated. Their Office is hard and
IIbOrious one. The whole State (and es
pecially the weak aad defencelcss) Is
Interested in strong, vigorous prosecu-
ons and faithful performance of duty
If the Office be made to depend on a sal
lry, the amount should be large enough
o obtain the entire time OF the public
1t is poo: economy to have
weak and inefficient prosecuting attol-
leys. They occupy position of antag
'nism to the entire bar, and the ablest
awyers ought to be in the service of the
state with all facilities given them to
meet the contending forces 4 higher
ee for cases of murder would probably
'e of some service on the present plan.
There are good lawyers and sensible men

CONNECTIONS,

In House proceedings Saturday, 10th,
where Mr.. Crawford introduced bill 10
repeal section 219l, Code, which was re-
erred TO Committee on County Affairs, it
vas a mistake to have said that "Mr Wat
ION moved the bill be not considered"
This motion had reference TO bill intro
luced by Mr.. Crawford ito change the
names of certain children" Mr.. Watson's
notion prevailed as to the last bill, but the
notion was reconsidered on Monday, and
.he bill was appropriately referred.
On Thursday, 18th, there was a mistake
IS to bill introduced by Mr.. Williamson,
which should have read: A bill 10 amend
ection 2159, Code, and to provide Tor the
egistration and payment of county war
ants in the order in which they are issued.
ieferrod to Committee on County Affairs,
astead of TO Railroad Committee.
In the House on Thursday, Mr.. Mont
;omery, of Oktibbeha. opened the debate
IN the act to repeal the Lien Law, and
poke eloquently at some length on the
,uhiect. Mr.. Montgomery, of Bolivar,
poke IN favor Of retaining the law on the
statutes. In the report ct The proceedings

Bills to Amend the Code.

1t would add immensely to the inter
est of Legislative proceedings if the
titles of all bills to amend the Code
should be clearly expressed. Our repor-
tiers make up their record chiefly from
the journals, and the Secretary of Sen
ate and Clerk Of House can only enter
the title, however brief it may be. Some
of our exchanges. and several Of our sub
seribers justly complain Of this. We
should be glad to see Rule adopted
requiring that the object Of every bill
shall be compreheasively expressed in
the title. It viii add few more lines
ta each days journal, but it would b
very satisfactory to al who read the
