THELOCAL NEWSPAPER.

A contemporary truthfulIy remarks tina,
the local newspaper is the most useful Of
all the agencies which stamp the impress
ofprogress upon towns and inland cities
Without the aid of the local newspaper,
towns are, as rule, thriftless and dead. 1t
is common for small great men to speak
with contempt of local newspapers, but the
village newspaper makes more great men
out of less material-more bricks without
straw-than any other factor in politics,
and it is the one ladder on which men
climb to local distinction as the beginning
of wide fame. The advent Of the local
newspaper is the life of the locality, and
the measure of its suppost, as rule, meas
ures the advancement Of the people.

tOrney General. VI illald Davis, to 81.
T.. Sloane Esq. County Clerk lot Saline
county, Kansas. which letter bears date
Of april l6ths 1885 Mr.. Lowe states
that certain individuals In the county
are claiming that he has been taking
illegal feess for the reason that he does
not account for the transfer ices which
he collects Mr. Lowe has been acting
according TO the terror of that letter,
and no doubt in good faith. If there
are adverse decisions 10 this one Of At
tOrney General Davis's we have not
seen them We desire to see fair play in
politics as veil as any thing else, and
when Mr.. Lowe leaves the Office of
County Clerk, we expect to see him
leave It with honor to himself and the
party which placed him in the position.
Office Of Attorney General,
Topeka, Kas., April 10 1873.
Dear Sir: In yours of the u inst you
say 81 desire your opinion as 70 wheth-
or or not the fees mentioned in Section
, Chap 49, Laws 1872. are to be in
cluded in tae report Of fees required to
be made by the County Clerk by Sec
ton 3, Chap, sc, Laws Of 1875, or do
LuC<C L1GS aCCLtlC 10 Inc DGA6uG OF the
County Gle kY'' To which I have 70
say: CVapter 96, Laws 1875, regulating
the salaries of County Clerks had for
its basis of computation, all the servi-
ces by law then required to be per
formed. The act approved March 9th,
1877, amending and repeating Section
8 Of said Chapter SO, act 1875, simply
changes the time at Mhich the County
Clerk shall repOItth fees by him received
during the preceding quarter, together
with the amount of fees charged and
which are due aud unpaid under pro-
visions of said chapter 96, act 1875, and
1 think can have no relstiOn TO the act
approved March 9Th 1877, being an act
''in relation To the transfer of real es-
late in the name Of the owner" and
the fees authorized hereunder. This
act imposes on the County Clerk new
duties, and such as were certainly not con-
tempiated by the authors of said act of
1875, Under chapter 60, act 1875, the
County Clerk shall ''Charge and collect
for the use Of the county" certain fees.
In the recent act, relating to transfers
the authors say that s'Che County Clerk
shall receive certain fees - and they
give no further directions as to their
Hence in the absence of
any direction, further than stated,
think the legislature not only intended
that the County Clerks shall receive
the fees'' but may retain them. This
is my construction Of the law; hence 1
conclude that these fees do not 90 in to
the county fund, and are are not to be
deducted from the salaries Of County
Clerks. / very much doubt the con-
Of the act of 1875, herein.
referred to. Very Respectfully,

In this weeks issue of the Independent
we discover more than the usual num-
Der of evidences of their perpetrating
OF statements. We published q remin-
iscence on General Robt E. Lees
death, last week, tsken from the Bns-
ton Budget, and the hraIn Of the indie
pendent was so fuddled that il mistook
it for an item OF current news. Again
it attempts to PROFOUND the usual green
back cOnundrum, and goes on to say:
stLs6t's see. Three dollars interest
for the use Of i've collars, for ninety
days, is $50 per cent for ninety days If
the interest was paid IN a dTanCe, or six
hundred per cent. q year
Well we presume that would depend
something upon the kin 4 OF collar; it
might be a horse collar, a dog collar or
a shirt collar, for aught We know, the
independent is too indefinite. The
coEundrum shows q very. poor article,
and the next statement should be made
for beer
