THERE is a good deal being said
by the papers over the State at
present in regard to the effects of
the Jarvis law, which was passed
by the last Legislature. Whatev-
er else may be said of the law,
there is no question that it is saw
ing many thousands of dollars to
the State, and the various coun.
ties. 1t has been in operation on
ly few months, but in that time
it has saved the State more than
$5O,0O0.O0, and has saved the
counties in the State much more
than it has the State. In this
county it has saved at least half
of the cost in criminal cases, and
has reduced the expenses Of the
circuit court many hundreds of
dollars. The Circuit Court Clerk
showed us a bill of cost the other
day which amounted to between
$4,000 and $4,000, which under
the operation of the Jarvis law
was cut down to $1.65. A great
many people condemn the law as
being unjust in that it compels a
man to attend court for days at a
time and then allows him nothing,
and compells the sheriff to ride
all over the county to hunt up
witnesses or to arrest q criminal
and then in great many cases
does not allow him any pay for
his trouble. However this may
be there is no question but that
the Jarvis law saves the state
and the counties many thousands
of dollars every month.
The Jarvis law may not be a
good law in some respects, but it
is very effective in saving ex'
penses.

from the American, showing the
amount saved in Davidson, Shelby
and Hamilton counties. Read it
