the trustees in some of the districts were
anxious TO run the gantlet and admit all
pupils without restriction.
In districts where school sessions were
resumed, as in Bingham and Farmers

mitted. these forming tn major portion OF
the ScnOOl enrolment. but In other dis

the pupils could be VaccinaLed. Word
came from some of the outlying districts

A fOrerunner Of trouble came from Muir

These trustees desired first to have an

fifteen or twenty other men to look
after, had no choice, but to leave tbs
men in Jail, to be looked after by tht

When they arrived at the place for

HORNE TALKED OF 'lBOODLING''
AND SHERIFF HOWELLS SAID
LIAR
Sensation at County Commissioners
Neutrality-suspicious. Charges in the
Surveyors Office

The otherwise tame and prosaic pro-
ceedings Of the county commissioners
were enlivened yesterday forenoon by a
lively scrap over the question of allow
ing overtime to county officials and
employees in the county surveyors Of
fee, Two payrOlls were presented for
the month Of December, one by Sur
veyor Wilkes himself and the other by
Deputy Surveyor Nissen. Both of the
payrolls were hung up, after a discus
sion of the overtime question, until
Saturday afternoon, when the retiring
board will hold It's last meeting and
make way for the new commissioners.
1t developed that Deputy Nissen had
prepared the payrolls of the county sur
veyor's department for the past year
and a half, and that the December roll
differed f1Sm those for the many
months gone by only in the size of the
overtime allowed. Nissen's December
roll gave him six hours overtime every
day in the month at 40 cents an hour.
1t also gave w. II. Evans, the
draughtsman, and F. NJ. LeProhon
equal favors, except that the latter was
employed for only part of the month.
The maximum monthly salary allowed
to the deputy surveyor by law is $685.
and to Draughtsman Evans 500, but
these two appeared on the payroll for
the month for $161.S5 and S159 respec-
lively, the excess over their fixed sal
aries being the overtime.
Surveyor Wilkes surprised the COM
nissioners with his presence, and pre-
scented a payroll for last month, allow
ing himself $100, the fixed amount. Mis-
sen the prescribed twO-tnirds and
Evans his fixed salary. In it all men
ton of extra time allowance was
omitted.
During the discussion it was brought
out that Surveyor Wilkes had not been
in his office for more than a year, and
that his salary warrant had even been
carried to him at his private place OF
business UP town. Mr.. Wilkes an
nounced that he had discharged Evans,
and that Deputy Nissen had resigned.
Sheriff Howel1s was unfortunate IN
mourning the dispIeasure of the COM
missioner5 before the memory of the
overtime feature had passed. The sher-
if saw the commissioners slash the
claim of his two special deputies en-
ploved to serve as death watches over
Lynch and King. the condemned muir
derers. from $40 each for the month TO
sos. The sheriff had understood that
the higher figure had been fixed few
weeks ago. but the commissioners stuck
to the minute record, which showed the
co:cpensation fixed at 500
While the pruning act was going on
Commissioner Horne remarked that ne
believed il to be about time to stop
what appeared to him to be petty hood
ling in the county othces- instantly lhe
sheriff's hair became red, and his re-
tort was: ANY one who applies that
remark to me is a liar.
The retort was met by an injunction
from Chairman Whitaker that no more
tax of that kind would go.
