The HALEY Times is dis, ,atis6ed
with the action of the County Com.
m'ssoners of Alturas in fixing official
salaries at the minimum, and finds
fault with other actions of that Board.
We quote from the Times as follows:
"The law requires the Probate
Judge and the Recorder to be at
their offices frcm 10 O'Clock A. NJ. to
. o'clock p. N. of each week day. The
same law requires the Commissioners
to meet four times year, and their
meetings seldom continue more than
six days at each time. And vet the
Recorder gets salary of $500 and
the Probate Judge salary of $500,
while these two Commissioners, who
fix the salaries, get $500 each and 40
cents for mileage!
Among the bills allowed at the
present session of the Commissioners
is one to "Geo. NJ. Parsons, for legal
services" The taxpayers would like
to know what this is for.
The law requires the Sheriff to COL
lect the licenses due the county, and
1
if he fails to perform his official duty
he is liable on his bond. BY what
authority do the commissioners EN-
plov an attorney to collect these
! licenses?
The reason why the Commissioners
of Logan county refused to compro.
mise on our interest is because thev
claim our Board is not legal one.
The statute says that the Board shall
consist of "three Commissioners
The records in the Recorders office
show that the present Board of Com
missioners have, during the past year
paid out over $4,000 for legal servi-
ces.

wrangling over bill for one gallon
of coal OIL, and then paid a lawyer

A TEST CASE.

The question as to whether the inter
state commerce law is 10 be needed by
railroads or not gives promise Of reeeIy-
ing such legal consideration as 10 set sE
rest any question about the rights Of
the commission TO enforce the statutory
provisions and TO afford the people re-
Lief from fEyoritlEm and determinations.
Judge Gresham has just rendered 3
decision which strikes at the very root
of the evil which has been practIced II
violation of law and his position Is 50
clear, comprehensive and convincing sc
to leave little doubt about the final &C
ton of the higher tribunal. The case
involves the very life and existence of
the interstate law. The Judge has de-
cided that Councilman, the shipper, and
Peasley, the railroad official, who were
up for trial before Judge Blodgett for
violation of the railroad law and who
were fined for contempt of Court N re-
fusing TO testify IN certain cases, must
answer or stand committed until their
fines are paid. The case viii be appeal
ed to the supreme court, and il, as seems
likely, the decision is sustained, rail-
roads and shippers viii be shcrn Of the
power OF discrimination ss intended BY
the law.
Councilman was charged with receiv-
/ ing rebates from certain roads whereby
his firm secured great advantage over
the ordinary shipper, and Peasley, as
the officer of road, was accused of vio-
lating the provisions of the law IN grant
ing such rebates. The law makes the
i recipient and the giver of such rebates.
i which are in effect discrimination against
the general pubic, equally guilty and
subject 10 penalty. Both the accused
men declined to testify for thesam res
son. VIZ: thatto do SO might crimlnate
themselves. But Judge Gresham de-
cides that section $50 of the interstate
commerce law affords them ample pro-
lection, as il provides that the informa-
ton thus gained snail never be used
against the witness or his property N
There is no question that most fragrant
violations of the Interstate law have
been practiced by large shippers and
railroad managers. TO the direct disad-
vantage of lesser shippers. The law
now to be tested was passed in great
part TO prevent Determinations, 10 pro-
tec1 the weak against the strong, and to
afford equal rights to all. TIE nullifi-
cation of the act has been widely Drac-
need, but thus fer the perpetrators have
sue eeded in eluiing the arm Of justice
and defying the power of the law
through inability to obtain evidence on
which to secure conviction.
The outcome Of this case viii be
/ watched with u usual interest, and if
1 Juuge Gresham shall be sustained, the
way for punish 8g future abuses viii
be made easy aHd violations win be re-
ducad to the N aimum.
