A BRANCH of inquiry taken up by the
Senate investigating committee last week
was that looking after fees long overdue
from county clerks to the state treasury.
The law requires that returns shall be
made within certain period, but the
statute appears to have been totally ig-
nored in the majority of instances and
some clerks have died without fulfilling
the requirements of the law. Several Of
these officials were summoned to Trenton
on Friday, and while there we're various
reasons given for the delay, the principal
cause seemed to be that the lawyers were
slow in settling their bills. Counsellor
Corbin remarked that ''lawyers are good
pay" and added that their failure to set
tie was no excuse for clerks not paying
mp, and suggested that the latter should
withhold papers until the fees were paid
This suggestion is good one. The Office
Of the county clerk should not be ran or
credit, and if these officials are to settle
promptly with the state. they, in turn
should get their money when the work il
done by them. County clerks who va
Gated their positions years ago are still
collecting, or attempting to collect, fees fo
papers furnished during their terms

Manager Howe's Easter offering at the
Park Theater is Roland Reed, in bis sue
cessful comedy, ''The Politician" Mr..
Reed has gained prestige with the public
for his conscientious and capable work,
and in his effort to artistically present
character parts upon the stage OF bis i'm
personation of General Josiah Timber is
thus far considered the best achievement
of his stage career. Mr.. Reeds company
has recently passed through most try
ing ordeal, wherein he and other MEM
bers of the troupe escaped fatalities in

death to some and serious injury to the
remaining occupants of the train. For

sketch of the story is that Rory O'Mally
when a child, was found in the River
Sandom by the Widow O'Mally and reared
as her son. In reality he is the son of
Squire Edmund, who spends his estate
and dies in London, leaving his widow to
