The judges and clerks of election
were not posted on the new election
law so far as their fees are concerned.
They all seemed to take it for granted
that they were entitled to the same
compensation as they were under the
old law, when as . matter of
fact the law allows them twice as
much. The law provides that they
shall have so much for every 100 ballots
cast, and since there were separate
county and township ballots they were
entitled to twice as much as they re-
ceived. The oversight saved the county
about 500. Next year there will be
thFee different ballots and by that time
the election o4csrs will probably be
posted up on the Watter.
