COUNTY OFFICES.

While we are to have u political
party fight over county offices this
fall, it is not probable that it will he
as personal or exciting in its nature
us in some past campaigns. The offices
which have been the most sought
after, are now salaried and the pay is
not sufficient to allow the candidates
to spend 50 much money to buy cn.
thusiasm. The register of deeds and
treasurer from next January will get
only $1,000 and clerk hire. Ii "a can.
didate had 10 extra expenses in obtain.
ing and retaining sucl, offices and in.
Cured no liability from errors. these
salaries would he ample, provided the
commissioners would allow sufficient
clerk hire. But it is only q month
ago when an ex-register had to pay
seven hundred dollars for an error,
which had occurred in II predecessors
time, and which was put through by u
rascally third party. who took advan.
tagc of it. The present treasurer is
Under 100000 bonds, which bond in
itself is worth $1,000 u year; though it
may not be actually paid for in
money, that is what it would cost if
taken from II guarantee company.
The work itself is OF the most re.
sponsible and exacting nature and re.
quires the personal presence and
supervision of the official himself in a
greater degree than any other office.
Though the shcriif's office has been
strongly contested in the past, it is u
fact that if Il sheriff lets his work he
done by deputy, lie won't have enough
left to pay election bills. In other
words. there is only what a man may
earn by hard work in the sheriff's
Office.
Considering work, responsibility and
salary, the auditors office is the best
now in the gift of the county; but
$1,000 Il year will not allow Il very
large margin for u campaign fight.
The county superintendent has barely
a living. and the judge Of probate has
about enough to pay his board from
his salary and fees.
Notwithstanding all this discourage.
ment, we suppose we will find some
disintercsted fellow citizens who will
be willing to work hard to get these
Offices and ut least advance money
enough on their prospects to pay fol-
the printing of ballots and other cam.
paign expenses. But they will have
to so slow or they will discount thei,
salaries in advance.

lhe republican convention ut st.
thomas last Saturday was we'll at.
tended and harmonious. \ general
feeling was shown to work in unison,
for the benefit of the party and for the
good of Dakota. There were no
county nominations spoken of and no
appearance of manipulation for the
future benefit of any particular can.
didates for county offices this fall. In
private conversation with the dele.
gates the expression WAS unanimous
that with proper nominations this
county would elect the republican
nominees this fall. 1t is Il matter of
collgratulAtion to republicans that we
enter upon the campaign with such
all suspicious beginning.
