To emphasize the foregoing. to
show the necessity of the members

official duties all the time--putting
in full time in looking after con-
victs, and the States interests,

only two or three years ago an ex-
pert accountant WAS paid hun
dreds of dollars to investigate the
books and accounts of the pen
itentiary. and the last legislature
not being satisfied, evidently, with
the way things had been running,
named "A joint committee to inves-

some of the members of it have
either been .lessees, or are crop

The convicts. Precious little Is
done as railroad commissioners.
There is plenty to do as members
of the prison board of control.
In fact, the whole time of the
three railroad commissioners
should be given to the State. Why
should three railroad commission
ers.. when the State is clearing
lands, and caring for over a thou
sand convicts, scattered IN over
half a dozen of counties, be paid
for full time, when they are at
home more than half the time
looking after their private bu-,
sinessP The Governed and the
Attorney General have done as
much work, according to pnbllca-
tions that We have seen, in the
way of selecting convict farms
and attending meetings prison
board, as the three railroad com
missioners, and besides, they have
been busy all the tllne utIenuiuS
to their other duties. The Gov
vernon and Attorney General re-
'ceive no compensation, as mem
bers Of the board Of control, as
do the railroad commissioner
that being the biggest part OF the e
commissioners labor If attended
to--and besides, the Governor
and Attorney General are mem
bers of the State house commission
for which they receive no salary.
The three railroad commissioners
ect, as stated, $2000a year, and
they ought to put in full time.
Unless the railroad commisslo-
ner devote their entire time to the
public service the legislature when
It meets next January, ought to
abolish the office. 1t is not a cons
stitutional office, but Q statutory
one. and may be abolished at the
legislatures will. This is said IN

Should Earn Their Salaries.
Grenada Sentinel.

Grenada Sentinel.
The railroad commissions should
earn their salaries. The railroad
commissioners are also members
of the board Of prison control and
II they worked like other State
officers they would not be idle n
day in the year, save Sunday. The
Governor and the Board of Con-
troll, but they do not remain idle
after the meetings of the board,
but putin their whole time ut
something else. The mere meet
ings of the Board of Control and
of the railroad commissioners,
should be the smallest part OF the
work of the three commissioners
who are also members of the Board
OF Gontrul. n i
Railroad commissioners are paid
two thousand dollars year. This
is the same amount that is paid
the Secretary of the State, and
the State superintendent of pub
lie cducation. Both Col. Power
and State Superintendent Whit
field do more work in one year
than the railroad commissioners
doin four.
The Sentinel agrees fully With
the Clarion-Ledger, the Kosciusko
Herald and the Biloxi Herald and
Q score more of papers in the
State, that unless the railroad
commissioners do more work the
legislature should either abolish
the office or cut the pay commen-
surate with the work done,
