The Heavens in February.

The following astronomical data
for February is furnished by the
Washington observatory: Two
planets of those visible to the naked
eye are seen in the evening sky the
present month. One is Mercury,
which is an evening star setting
soon after the sun and reaching
greatest elongation east on Febru-
airy 10th, at or near which date it
may be observed. The other is the
red planet Mars which shines among
the bright stars of the constellation
Leo, high in the eastern sky and
reaches the meridian near midnight
during the latter part OF the month
The morning sky is illuminated by
three bright planets. First in order
Of rising, is Jupiter, which appears
over the southeast horizon in the
early morning. This is followed by
Saturn over the same point of the
horizon and still later by Venus
which rises near the position of the
sun. Venus is the morning star
proper and is steadily approaching
the sun.

That hardwood lumber manufac-
ture will succeed that OF pine in the

the cut OF the last year, which was
an increase of rs per cent over
1899. The hardwood lumber cut in

tends from Green Bay to Delta coun-
ty, in 1900 was 365, $4,000 feet, as
compared with 297,714, 900 feet cut

Sharp County record., 1901-03-01

present law not only requires him
to pay to the clerk $1,000, the
amount necessary to pay him for
his services, but he must also
pay the clerk $1,000 in addition,
so that the clerk may pay this
last amount into the county
treasury to reduce the debt Of
the county. Will any one con-
tend that this is right? But to
illustrate the injustice Of the
present system further, I wish to
call attention to the way in which
the system works in the probate
court, and to do SO | will take a
case now pending in our probate
court, in course of adminisUra-
ton. The case | refer to is the
estate of Captain J, NJ. McCord,
and the whole estate is valued at
less than $4,000, and the ad-
ministrator, Judge Wilson, in.
forms me that he has paid right
at $4,000 in clerks fees in the
past two years, Now, cf this
amount only $500 was neces-
sary to pay the clerk for his SER
vices and the remainder, $1,000,
has been collected to turn into
the county treasury to reduce
the debt Of the county; in other
words this amount has been ta-
ken from the widow and heirs in
order to reduce this debt. Do
you believe, Mr.. Editor, that any
one is very proud Of the fact that
this debt is being reduced in this
way? Would we not have more
pride in the matter if the county
were to appoint agents TO 60 up
on the public highway and rob
able bodied men Of their money
and put it in the treasury for this
purpose? Now, the above case
is not an extreme one. The fact
is that in every estate that is ad-
ministered in our probate court
under the present system a part
Of the estate that should 60 to the
widow and orphans is taken Al
the way Of clerks and sheriff's
fees and placed in the county
treasury to reduce the debt Of
the county.
1t is a fact known to every one
who knows anything about fees

THE RECORD,
BY CLAUDE l.. COGER.

We will pay a liberal reward to
any citizen who will show an ut
teranco made by this paper to the
effect that the salary law is due

it IS the principal factor in bring

There are more reasons than
one why estates suffer so in the
probate court. One is, that the
estate remains in course of ad-
ministration for aye and always,
and the administrator not forced
to wind it up promptly, according
to law. Some estates are wound
up promptly, but many are not

Iments are made that are not
warranted by facts, and, as !
know that you intended to be
fair in this, as in all other mat
ter, and would not intentionally
misstate the facts or allow your
paper used for that purpose, |
ask your indulgence that | may
reply to certain statements con-
tanned in the article.
The article states in substance
that the effect of the King bill
would be to virtually kill the SAL
ary law now in force in this
county. | contend that this is
not true, nor is it the intention Of
the bill to do this. The fact is
that the bill mentioned expressly
recognizes the salary law, by
providing that the law shall take
effect Immediately after its pass
age in all counties now having a
salary law. This is done upon
the theory that the measure
would not decrease the fees be-
low the salary and that it could
take effect Immediately, without
being unconstitutional, as it
would neither raise nor lower the
amounts allowed the officers ef-
fected. In what way, | ask,
does the bill tend to repeal the
salary law? Instead of doing
this, it would remove the great
est objection that has ever been
made against the law, that is that
it compels the clerk and sheriff
to collect money from persons
who have business in the courts
and pay it into the county treas
ury, thereby putting a special
tax upon the people who have
business with these officers.
The article also states in sub
stance that the county of Sharp
guarantees to the clerk and sher-
ifs their salaries, and that if the
fees were reduced below the
amounts fixed as their salaries
that the county would have to
make good the deficit. In reply
to this, | wish to say that the
county guarantees nothing to
these officers under the salary
law or any other law. | assert
| further that under the present
law, as the fees now are, that il
the clerk did not collect but
$4,000 in fees for the present
year, that the county would not
owe him a cent, neither would IL
owe him a cent under Kings
bill. Any one who will take the
trouble to read the salary law,
and who knows anything about
the rules for constituting statutes,
will see that | am correct.
The article also gives the sal
ary law the sole credit for the
reduction in the county debt for
the past few years, and, | con-
tend that the facts do not bear
out this proposition. The salary
law is only entitled to credit in
this regard for the fees which
have been collected by the clerk
and sheriff in excess Of their sal
aries, and which they have paid
into the county treasury, and the
county debt has been reduced
every year several thousand dol
lars more than this. That this is
true any one can ascertain by
going to the clerks office and
examining the figures. Our clerk
has collected in the past two
years the sum Of about S5,0O0.OO
in fees. | have not the exact
figures at hand, but know that
the above sum will not miss the
exact amount, either way, to any

Speaking of estates being
"eaten up" it is not impossible
to point to a time not a thousand
years in the dim vista of the past
when whistles come higher than
they do today. Then we heard
not so much about robbery as we
do today,
Sharp County record., 1901-03-01

Those who favor the reduction
Of fees and claim that the present
system is robbery, should look
we'll to their deeds. They want
to cut the fees 80 per cent. Are
they then 80 per cent benofactors
and believers in robbery to tue
extent Of 10 per cent? Why not
cut the fess until they will pay
the officers salaries, and not
nibble the cheese?
Sharp County record., 1901-03-01

Another reward will be paid to
the reader who shows an utter
ance made by this paper to the
effect that the fee reduction
bill repealed the salary law. We
said it virtually killed the effects
of this law, and that it does do
this who has denied?

Let $4,000 in scrip be earned
and sold at 80 cents in this coun-
ty a year and the sum of S2,70O
is placed in circulation among
the people. In a bankrupt coun-
ty $4,000 in scrip sold at rs cents
places among the people $3.50.
No man will contend that the
more money in circulation the
more harm it is to the people.
The truth of the matter is, the
farmer, merchant, carpenter,
miller, and those of all avoca-
ton get benefit from any in
crease in the circulating medium.

Many say if the county was

improvements made. 1t is cer-

friends get their authority for
saying it would be the same with
the county out Of debt?
