A New Salary Case.

The Supreme Court OF Idaho has
now to consider a new phase OF the
salary law to test the right OF the
district judge to fix the salaries OF
county officers 1t appears I at
the county officers fOneida county
appealed from the decision OF the
county commissioner fixing their
salaries, and Judge Rich Of he
district court rendered decision
amending the order and raising he
salaries fixed by the commission
ers. The latter have now appea led
the matter to the State Supreme
Court.
The commissioners say: "In fix
ing the salaries of the county OH
GERS we were looking to the inter
ests of the taxpayers and we con
sidercd what individuals were
being paid for labor throughout
the county, and that guided It's to
certain extent. This phase Of
the question undoubtedly gave
Judge Rich his cue, for in his dcci,
sion he says: The question is not
what men could be hired for 10
perform these services, for men can
not be hired to fiji these Offices T.
they are elected by the people are
representative men in whom the
people have confidence, and whom
the people have said should admin
lister their public affairs during the
ensuing two years. The question
to be deter mined is what amount Of
annual salary shall be paid them
for decently, respectfully and Off
cially representing the welfare OF
the county, so that they may not
only live 3nd breathe out an exist
encc, but also that they may derive
from their positions a far and
reasonable profit, the same as ordi-
nary mortals have right to expect
in other affairs of life. The public
expect these officials to give their
time and best energies to their pub
lie duties, and the people in return
expect they shall have due and
proper compensation therefor. -
The plea for higher salaries for
public officers coming from demo
cratic source is new phase of po-
litical economy for party whose
campaign slogan has always been
a plea for government economic
ally administered. " The legal
phase will deal with the right of a
district judge to review the work
OF the county commissioners where
the matter presented contains nc
charge of illegality.
