CUTTING DOWN SALARIES.

Salem grange adopted resolutions
TO cut down the salaries OF all our
county ofilclals TO take effect lmmed-
lately. That was attempted In the
last Legislature. Our position then
was that the law should go into ef-
feet at the beginning of the next
term. That would be July /, 1896.
II our advice had been accepted a
great reduction could haye been made.
We still adhere 20 the proposition
that an oflcials salary cannot be
changed during his term without re-
sistance aud litigation. The fair
way 10 do II is'to have II take effect at
the beginning OF term. II the
grange can bring Il about we shall
not object. The sherlf's once now
costs $500 year salaries, and about
1880 Is made otherwise. The proper
reform Is TO have the taxes paid to
the county treasurer, Give hlmi a
deputy about three months. That
would raise his oiiloe 10 $500 u year,
Cut the sherlfts down TO 5000 all told.
TnE JOURNAL viii assist In any
reasonable and fair manner To bring
this about. by an adjustment OF this
