MAKES TOO MUCH MONEY.
Sheriff of st. Louis County Likely
to he Given a Salary.

The. sheriff of St Louis county is
brought into serious financial danger by
means or bill introduced yesterday by
MT. Afford. 1t proposes to limit the
salaries OF sheritfs and their deputies
in counties the size of St. Louis to liked
salaries, instead of allowing them fees.
The stipend Of w. c. Sergeant, who hap
pens to be sheriff of St. Louis county
would therefore be reduced to something
like $4,000 or at most 5000 per anum.
1t is a fact with which the general
public is doubtless unacquainted said a
member of the st. Louis delegation yes
terday, that the sheriff of that county
frequently realizes from his office, the
enormous sum of $4,000 a year. The
position is looked upon by people up in
that end of the state as a bonanza and
the man who is fortunate enough to fall
heir to it is counted as the Iuckiest
man in the county. The immense size
OF the county gives a great deal OF
mileage which other counties are not
productive of and there are various 9TH
er ways in which this officer may swe l
his income legitimately under the pres
ent law. 1t is generally acknowledged
that the emoluments of the Office are
greater than necessary, being several
times the salary of the governor, and
that they should be reduced.

DISCUSSES BOARD OF CONTROL.
Snyder Bill Taken Up by Committee
on General Legislation.

on General Legislation.
The Joint committee IN general legi:la-
ton, having in charge the Snyder bill for
the creation of the central board of con-
troll, met yesterday afternoon and heard
arguments both for and against the meas
ure The bill rests with the committee,
which will. no doubt, finally place it be-
fore the legislature, but this, it is now be-
heved will not be done in less than a
couple of weeks. The committee meets
again next Wednesday, at which time 1t
desires to hear from various heads of
state institutions respecting the bill.
The chief discussion of the measure
yesterday was given by State Auditor
Dunn. He read a lengthy document in
which he replied to recent editorials pub
lished in the Pioneer Press on the bi l.
That paper opposes the measure, and in
the article in question cited experiences
of the state of Iowa, which has a CEN
trail board of control, in attempt to
support its theory. Mr. Dunn read a
communication from a member of the
Iowa board, whose attention had been
attracted TO the editorial. That gentle
man had this TO. say of the publication:
II have been amused at the editorial
in the Pioneer Press, as the author Is
evidently without knowledge of the sub
ject which he treats and draws on his
magma ton for his statements. To a
ludicrous The author is either total v
ignorant of the conditions or will. ul. y
misrepresents.'
From Judge Kline, also of Iowa, WHO
was a member of the board and has been
on the supreme bench of that state fer
many years, comes a lengthy commune
cation on. the subject, in which appears
the following:
II have carefully read the editorial in
the Pioneer Press, which you send, and
am surprised to know at this age of the
world, when the truth is so easily ascer-
tanned. that men running newspapers of
supposed ability and reputation would
stoop to such gross. Misrepresentation
and untruth as this article contains It's
statement of fact, or It's pretended state
Tnent of fact. is not fact at ALL
Both the gentlemen emphaticaly re-
flute the assertion that the appointments
to the board in their state and It's man
agement have been dominated by poli-
tics. Judge Kline states that after three
years experience with the new board
they would not think of returning to the
old system.

central board. He argued that it is i'm

An incident which reflects great
credit on the labor organization of the
country occurred at the late convention
of the American Federation of Labor
in Louisville, KY. The National
Liquor Dealers association came be-
fore the convention with formal pro-
posal that the two bodies form an Of
fensive and defensive alliance. The
liquor dealers were ready to agree, in
the event of this coalition, to employ
only union bartenders and walters, and
to sell union-made beer. For a time
it looked as if they might persuade the
labor men, but delegate from Illinois
arose, and in stirring speech recalled
the influence of Miss Frances E. Will
lard on behalf of organized labor, and
urged the convention in her name to
reject the proposition. When the vote
was taken its was almost unanimously
against the alliance. The knights OF
Labor have also taken the same ground
"a course which will add more
strength to the organization than
would be million dollars in its treas
ury.

per month, and France next with an
average Of $50, 49,, 900 per month. OF

gentine, Bulgaria, Canada, Egypt
British India, Mexico, the Philippine
island, Russia, Uruguay and the Unit

more of exports than of imports. Can
ada in the eight months ending with
February, 1901. shows $4,000, 900 more

Resoues Two Little Sisters From m'
Burning Building.
Marinette, Wis, May 4.-Lottie Wang"
burg, sixteen years old, made a heroic
rescue Of her two little sisters, three
and five years old, early yesterday In
q fire which totally destroyed their home.
She was awakened by the smoke pouring
in her room. She opened the door lead
ing down stairs and the flames shot in.
She shut the door, raised the window and
seeing no one, jumped to the ground,
twenty-five feet below. With her foot
sprained she ran for a ladder on the 9TH
er side Of the house, placed it in position
and assembled into the burning dwelling
and carried out the children one by one
down the ladder. They were safe and
sound when the neighbors arrived and
the girl had to be attended by a physi-
clan. The father and three children on
the first floor were nearly overwhelmed
by the flames.
