City Attorney John +. Madden, by
his persistent and determined endeav'
or, has brought about decided re-
form in the conduct Of police court
cases. During his term of Office he
has paid strict attention to each and
every police court case as 1t came be-
fore the magistrate, and has, in every
instance, seen that the merits OF the
case were fully and completely de-
veloped. No guilty man, whom ne
has been called upon TO prosecute,
has been allowed to escape unpublished
if any effort Of his was able TO cause
punishment TO be inflicted. His adj
ministration of the office is not only a
credit to himself but also to the city
of Ottawa, and to high degree has
he merited the confidence and respect
of the people.

nsnIfy Debts-
In view Of the recent community
peopsrty decision Of the supreme
court in the case OF IAn9erf
". Brottcr. there il strong effort on
The part Of members Of the legislature Who
have large business interests TO pass m
effective Law on that subject The decision
referred 70 held IN effect that community
property cannot BE- held liable 70 execution
for debt unless the debt shall have been
contracted by both spouses. For instance.
II husband gives note in his own name.
without his wife's signature, the commun-
ity property cannot Be touched.
In view Of the disastrous consequences
that might ensue under such construction
Of the law. (which was. no doubt, corTecth
the Tacoma Clearinghouse Association
drafted new bill and sent il TO senator
Baker. to present TO the legislature. 1t
provides simply that community property
can Be- held for debts contracted o. created
by either spouse during marriage. When
the bill came up the other day Kinnear
objected seriously to its provisions O. too
sweeping. and suggested IN amendment
exempting the wife's half interest from the
operation Of the Law. when she shall have
filed notice of such reservation with the
county auditor. Baker objected to the ex-
emption on the ground that wife could
file the notice after q community debt Was
created and previous TO execution. and
save one-half the community property. II
Is probable that compromise viii b ef-
fected whereby the wife may reserve her
half interest from execution on al debts
subsequent to the fling of proper
notice.
A different law from that now on the
statute books is generally demanded, and,
no doubt. it viii be enacted.

THE SALARY PLAN.
Ohiection That In Does Not AFFORD Ado
I quate COmpensatlou.

Ohiection That In Does Not Afford Ado
7 quste Compensation.
Probably no question yet TO come before
the legislature will be Is dinicult Of settle
ment as the adjustment OF the ices and
compensation OF county ofncers. The
joint standing committee having the mat
ter in charge has labored almost continu-
DUSTY since the beginning Of the session on
the troublesome question. trying to adapt
the salary provision Of the constitution 70
IN equitable allowance Of compensation to
the various officers Of the different cOun-
ties. The latest plan, the outlines Of which
have already been given In these columns,
Is TO classify the counties BY population.
and TO 6x the compensation ct certain
per cent. Of population Thus the auditor
Of county OF 1000 would receive 50 Per
cent. or $500, and 20 on. The salary plan
has been definitely agresd upon, and the
counties have already been classified.
The principal objection TO the plan Is
that such gradation - Is assumed does
not give adequate salaries. The county
auditors Of the counties Of King and
Pierce. for instance. should receive at least
$4,000 per annum. yet under the gradation
made they receive but about $1,000, . sum
inadequate 70 the duties 70 b performed
BY them. These counties disbufse proba-
bly, 500, 900 each annually, oil Of which
must b audited and paid out upon the
auditors warrant The cashier Of . large
banking institution would have no larger
duties than the preparation OF the books
upon which the money is collected and
passing over the accounts upon which IL ID
paid out; and yet he will receive IN annual
salary equally rs large - the one named
above. In new counties, on the graduation.
spun out TO its legitimate conclusion on
the basis assumed by the committee. =
good county auditor would have to keep
his Office open for but little more than $50
per month.
