Tattler's Suggestions.

EDITOR The MANNING T1MEs:-Tbe
coming constitutional convention is
agitating the minds of the people
rather more than anything else at
present, and it seems that some Of
our leading men differ as to the best
course to pursue. Some say, let's
divide equally with the Conservatives;
some say, divide with them accord
ing to their number; some others
say, don't allow the Ants any show
ing, they are seeking to ruin the Re-
form movement. But what we want
is constitutional convention COM
posed of good, honest, intelligent
white men, and let's come together
and elect our best men irrespective
of factional lines, for if we speak of
dividing with the Conservatives we
are certainly making a distinction
and thereby drawing lines which
would only be temporary compro-
mise at critical juncture. So let's
talk less about party lines and think
more about what the convention can
and should do for US. One of the
most important things is to finally
and forever settle the legislation and
suffrage question; another, taking the
public school law out of the Constitu-
ton and place it in the hands of the
Legislature. We should bear in
mind that the calling of the constitu-
tional convention is one plank in the
Reform platform. Let's dispense
with the Office of coroner and make
it the duty of the several trial justices
to perform the duties of that Office,
as they now do to some extent with
the same salaries they now receive.
Let the clerk of court be vested with
the power to issue warrant for the
arrest of the Sheriff should it be nec-
essary. Now, in regard to compen-
sation for township and county COM
missioners, let the township commits
sioners who do not form county
boards receive twenty-five dollars per
annum each; let those forming
county board receive one hundred
dollars each; let the chairman and
clerk of county boards receive one
hundred and fifty dollars each.
Now, Mr.. Editor, the above is a
mere rough outline which we have sug-
gested and a plan which we believe
would be an improvement upon our
present county government and
lessen the burden of taxation to some
extent. We would like to see some
thing from some ones pen that is
more able than ours. We expect
much good to come of the coming
constitutional convention.
