The proposal to abolish Boards of
Frecholders aud substitute County Com
missioners needs to be undertaken after
due consideration. II is not so certain
as some imagine that money will be saved
the counties by the new system. Take
this county as an example. The expenses
year, were 81, $40. The salaries and ex-
penses OF three commissioners would
probably not exceed half of this amount
but would the other half be saved 2 We
question it very much. With the hun.
dreds OF bridges in the county needing
frequent repairs. the delay in getting the
attention OF the commissioners would
cause serious Inconvenience and often re-
suit in accidents and loss TO the county.
A great deal OF the bridge work would
require superintendent, which would add
to its cost. Now, each freebooter knows
at once Of needed repairs to bridges in
his township and attends to them al once.
Besides, he is held responsible for his
work and expenses by his immediate
neighbors.
The charge that some Of them are cor.
rupt might be just as true of commission.

bucks were In existence, and during part
OF II most of the Treasury notes were in

"Where were the hated bankers all
this time 2 Why did they quietly permit
this enormous reduction in the national

WEDNESDAY, JAN. 90, 1897.

There is a constant tendency in this
country to initiate European governments
in the matter of pensioning public officials
when old age comes upon them. II is
custom which should not be allowed to
take root here. Public serVaDts-judges,
school teachers, etc, which 1t is now
proposed 10 some States to pension
should be paid fair salaries for their work,
aud there the obligation Of the State should
cease. They should not be encouraged
TO spend all OF their income with tho ex
pectation that they will be pensioned
when they retire from active life. The
result OF such system would be to load
the people with taxes without any equiva-
lent having been rendered to them for
carrying the load.
