CONSIDER THE SALARY BILL CAREFULLY

CONSIDER THE SALARY BILL CAREFULLY.
The Senate has passed a general sal.
ary bill reducing to quite q low point
the salaries Of State officers and enn-
ployes. It also cuts largely the sal
aries st the Uni Versity. It is not the
disposition Of the ADVOCATE to Op.
pose these reductions. We do, how
ever, desire to suggest that the details
of the bill be vUnsldered carefully. A
very large reduction Is made at the
State University. It, is possible and
probable that that and other State ed.
uCational institutions are costing too
much money, but that fact would not
constitute reasonable ground for q re-
ductiOn which would impair their eff
cheney. Members should consider
carefully the question Of what the
effect Of the passage Of this bill would
be. If appears that IL will place the
party In false light by tending TO
show that IL is opposed to proper ap'
pro priStlons for educational lnstitu-
tlons, then 1t should not pass. If 1t
appears that men Of the proper Calibre
cannot be secured for the various
State positions at thepropoSed salaries,
then the bill should not pass. The
people are demanding economy in
public affairs, but they do not want II
&C the expense Of efficient public SER
vice In tho various offices and eduCa-
tlonal institutions. This bill demands
careful consideration and should moi
be acted ON hastily.
