GENERALS SAL
AIRY.

The Legislature OF this state, with
The greatest unanimity and without
party division, have determined &c
amend the constitution of Michigan,
by giving the attorney general a
salary for the great and impOrtar
services that he renders the state.
The question now is, will the voters
ratify and approve Of that which
their representatives have done?
1t is safe to say that there has not
been u legislature assembled at the
capital in the last twenty-five years
that would not, with an almost uuani-
nous vote, have given the attorney
general larger salary than that
which IS now named in the proposed
amendment, for the simple eason
that they, being on the ground, as
certalned the true facts of the case.
and from those facts they are con
WINGED that, not only does the in
forests OF the state imperatively re-
qulre the constant and best services
81 most able attorney, but that by
giving him living salary, thousands
OF dollars would be saved to the
state eac1 year.
The question now is,aS to whether
the voters of this state can see what
IS Tor their interests and vote ac-
cordingly. The single proposition
that is submitted to them is this:
TO compel the lawyer who becomes
attorney general 10 take up his resi-
dcncc, during his term Of Office. at
nc seat OF government and give all
uf his time and strength To the
duties Of his Office. and as compcnsa-
ton for his services the state agrees
10 pay him the sum Of y, 800, which
IS just one-half of that which each
member of the supreme court re-
~civcS, 81, 800 less than is paid each
ri the six Judges of Wayne county,
and 81 ,5a0 less than the prosecuting
attorney Of Wayne county and the
corporation counsel OF Detroit re-
ccivc, respectively, for their ser
vices yearly. Or, If this is not
done, then the voters must decide TO
let the matter 90 on as il has been
for the last ~ years--the attorney
general receiving no compensation
80 speak o., residing at his home al
finding. for The most part, to his
own business, and making the great
interests of the state subordinate
thereto, or compelling him, without
compensation. to give up his entire
private practice through the CON
scicntious purpose to discharge well
the duties Of his high office. On this
issue, therefore, there ought not to
be dissenting vote. More and
more is it absolutely necessary that
the interests Of the people should be
protected. Constant encroachmcnts,
undoubtedly, have been made upon
their rights, by those who, finding
the field unprotected, have entered
in and taken possession thereof.
1t is time, as Gov. Rich, in one of
his messages to the legislature, said
BY paying the attorney general
the insignificant sum OF $500 per
year (the same as is paid janitors
and messengers), the state is losing
enough each year TO pay a reason
able salary to four attorney gen
erals, through lack Of paying fair

was ever dreamed of before. BY accept
offices as legislators, and new elections
would be necessary il special session

But they can not dodge it in that way

New York and some other States have
in their constitutions a provision that no
member of the legislature can accept any
other office, State or Federal during the

provision should he added to our consti.

which had been sent to taxidermist and
row adorned the parlor mantel.
His grandmother, of whom he was very
fond, was taken suddenly i'll. For some
time after he learned OF her condition
he sat in a brown study; then, as if com
ing to sudden resolution, he tiptoed into
the sick room and, cautiously approach
ing the bed, fixed his big brown eyes upon
his dear relative, and said with a little
culver in his voice:
Say, grandma, if you die, which you
rather be, buried or stuffed? Cause if
you're buried we can't see you no more.
and if you're stuffed we can see you in

COL. BOYD KEPT ON THE MOVE.

We expect to see Col. James e. Boyd
landed finally in something equally as
good" He is brilliant Republican of
long service, and he deserves good
place, but he seems to be making slow
progress. At first he wanted a cabinet
position. That went to so-called Mary
lander who was born in New England.
Then he wanted to succeed Gen. Ransom
as minister to Mexico. Powell Clayton
had a cinch on that. Next Senator
Pritchard presented him for First AS
sistant Postmaster General, and now the
Washington Star says that Col. Perry
Heath is slated for that job.
COL Boyd will have to make another
selection. He seems to be kept on the
move. No sooner does he select nice
comfortable berth than somebody else
steps In ahead of him.
