OFFICIAL FEES.

Public attention is recalled Just now TO an
administrative abuse which legislation has at
tempted to remove with only partial success.
Formerly numerous city officials were paid by
fees for the work which they did or were
supposed to do As population and business
increased some Offices became enormously
valuable, were eagerly sought, cautiously be-
slowed as reward for political activity and
usefulness, and safely relied upon to make their
incumbents rich. Thus there have been times
when the Sheriff Of the county Melted at least
500, 600 year from the fees which he might
lawfully exact and from other cmolumcnts
which sense Of decacy might have led some
persons t. forego The job at length became
so rich and so notorious AZ 10 provoke strong
popular disapproyal, and perhaps also not a
little jealousy Oh the part Of public function
aries who worked much harder than the Sheriff
for small fraction Of the sum which he re-
cciycd. At all event; the abuse had become
50 fragrant that the Legislature was induced
to correct it, and law was passed putting the
Sheriff on a salary of ST. 900 year, without
fees This was done under the stress OF feel
ing which the discoveries of a Legislative Com
mittce had produced but impressions OF that
SlJ are OdSllN bbIlttIdJ|u, dilu - WHICH bcu-
oral Sicklcs appeared with an appeal for the
relief of the Sheriff he found the Legislature
in compacent mood
General Sickles's plea vas based upon his
own painful experience. He had taken tho
Office Of Sheriff, 10 fill vacancy, for the sake
of obliging his friend, Governor HILL lie did
not c0vet it at the outset and in the end, if
we accept his testimony, he had become ex-
tremely tired Of it, II gave him a great deal
of trouble, he said, and little or no advantage.
He asserted that in order to have the work
done satisfactorily ho was compelled to pay a
great deal of money out Of his own pocket
TO deputies whose services were indispensable
to the prompt dispatch of business, and he
submitted and urged the passage Of bill
restoring in part the discredited fee system.
1t is not necessary to assume that General
SicklCs's complaint was entirely unreasonable.
Others agreed with him in measure, and Mr..
WINS, whose opportunities t. acqnaint himself

WHAT TYPICAL DEMOCRAIS SEE.

i
T,nicol Democrats cannot reflect upon the
ncnsiou rolls without being overcome by their
emotions. And they invariably are painful
emotions 1t never happens that the rolls 80
vjyidly recall the vast, unscliish patriotic ser
vices which the boys in blue rendered the
country in It's hour Of supremcst peril as to
make them lose sight Of everything else IN
contemplation of their splendid heroism. Oh,
no ANY alIusion TO the rolls in presence OF
n typical Democrat prompts him simply to be-
wall the cost to the people in hard cash OF
doing something for so many cid soldiers. lie
ALWAYS SURVEYS the rolls from the point OF view
Of the taxpayer never from that OF the g'ate-
ful patriot. However, he is consistent, this
typical Democrat is. His attitude toward
Union soldiers is not different in spirit from
that which he exhibited during the war. In
thc old DAYS tho Democrat who was not
typical. the exception, was named for distlnc-
tion's sake war Democlar. The other, the
rcrular Democrat. took as little interest in the
welfare of our boys in the field, in camp, or
in tic hospitals. as he takes now in the welfare
Of the veterans. Thea he discouraged their
labcrs for the flag by pronouncng the war
failure" now he wipes away tear ana cX-
claims Just see what the pension tax amounts
tor
The typical Democrat also has views touch
ing the Southern question They arc char
actcri,;ic. He has no sympathy for tho men
at the South who fought or otherwise upheld
the Union cause during the rebellion. He IS
for the mon who wore the gray and those
allied with them in purpose and tendency hISt'
.....l
last and all the time. All serious plactlcai
measures which look 10 the protection OF the
c,lorcd voters in the rights guaranteed them
by the Constitution he sigmatizcS n the out
como Of "ioicG' and unrclcntingly opposes.
Is he ever moved t. righteous indignation nj
the spectacle Of the disfIanchlScmcnt OF these
black voters? Never. All through the last
campaign he kept dcnouncing the orcc'
bill. Did anybody from June 10 November
ever hear him dcnouncc the men who ST ally
,windlc these colorcd men ont of the unallcn-
able right Of suffrage? Never.
There you have the typical Democrat, the
fine old orthodox Bourbon. The pension rolls
evoke from him curses red with uncommon
wrath. but the fragrant wrongs done u the
black electors at the South evoke from him
no cuiSc, nj all. He is profoundly agitated at
the thought that oVcf a quarter OF century
after tho war many thousands Of names should
be placed on the pension rolls. But he Is not
agitl,cd al all at the other thoueht-that the
Fifteenth Amendment 10 The Constitution OF
the United S;at"s which was proposed in 1869
and whose ratification was announced IN 1870,
is still deliberately disrcgardcd and dched ut
the south What the typical Democrat can
and cannot SEQ or rather what he chooses 10
see and not - see, make an interesting study.

The proposition TO establish Road Department,
or IA Road Bureau in the Interior Department, has
been received with small favor by those most
deeply Interested in the construction of good
roads, and Congress is not likely to be asked TO
give serious attention to it. The sentiment in
favor of good roads, however, is steadily incrcos
ing. Excellent reports were received last week
from Vermont, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland
and Georgia. IL appears that President Gilman,
If Johns Hopkins University, is taking an active
interest in the formation Of local lcaguc9 for good
roads in the vicinity of Baltmorc and Professor
George H. llamin, of the Maine State College,
intends to undertake the establishment Of such
leagues in his State. Ii is highly gratifying to
see this class of men zealously interested in this
good work. In truth, it is matter that concerns
every member of the community.
