DECISION KNOCKS OUT
THE SYSTEM OF FEES
Judge BledsOe Gives Opinion Holding
That County Officers Must Be
Paid by Salary.

Paid by Salary
SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. s.-The
Justices of the Peace, Constables and
other officers of the county of San Ber-
nardino will henceforth be paid on a
salary basis, Judge Benjamin F. Bled-
soc of the Superior Court having rem
dered a decision to that effect to-day
in the suit of L. c. Currier VS.. the
County of San Bernardino.
Currier, the Justice of the Peace at
Barstow, sued the county for $51, which
he claimed was due him as fees for
the Issuance at various times of war
rants for parties charged with evad-
ing railroad fare, the fee in a case be-
ing $3
The suit was tried before a local Jus
tice of the Peace where it was decided
against the plaintiff, who took it to
the Superior Court on appeal. The de-
cision is based on a recent opinion of
the Supreme Court in the suit of Tucker
VS.. Barnum, taken from Fresno Coun-
ty, which was similar in issue.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,


1016 Broadway, Aug. 8.
Advertisements calling for bids to
construct the Alameda County Scenic
Boulevard, between Oakland and Hay
wards, upon plans submitted to-day by
County Surveyor Prather were ordered
printed by the Board Of Supervisors
at this mornings session, and the work
of the big undertaking can be said to
be fairly under way. 1t is the most ex-
tensive work of the kind ever at
tempted in this county and an esti-
mate of the cost made by Prather
places it at $301000.
The purpose is to construct a mag
nificent driveway. connecting Oakland
and Haywards. The proposed road is
to run along the foothills and gives a
splendid view of the surrounding coun-
try. The work of acquiring the right
of way has been going on for several
months and is now completed. The
surveyors plans cover the minuteSt
details of the work, showing about $50
profile drawings of culverts and
bridges of various sizes, all of which
are to be constructed of masonry of
the most enduring character.
Objections to moving a fence by the
heirs of c. S. King and Margaret Wat
son, made before the Supervisors to-
day, delayed the work of opening a
road from San Lorenzo to connect with
the main San Leandro and HaywardS
road. The heirs want pay for the land
and also ask the Supervisors to pay for
the rebuilding of the fences. Super
visor Talcott, in whose district the
proposed road lies, was not ready to
agree to this, and the matter was put
over.

TRENTON n. j., Sept. 21.-In a
state convention that was both en-
thusiastic and harmonious the Repub-
leans of New Jersey nominated for
mer State Senator Edward c. Stokes
of Cumberland county for the the gov
ernorship. The nomination was made
by reclamation after nomination
speeches had been made by Senator
Minch of Cumberland, Prosecutor
Speer of Hudson and Ex-Governor Fos-
ter VI. Voorhees, of Union. Mr.. Stokes,
who had been i'll, appeared in the con
vention after his nomination had been
made and accepted the nomination in
a speech that was well received. Mr..
Stokes was vigorously cheered as he
assembled the platform.
Contrary to expectation, the platform
was adopted without the slightest OBJ
lection from Hudson county. The Hud-
son delegates had made ii clear that
they were not fully satisfied with the
platform as it had been drawn, but
they contented themselves with stat
ing their position before the commit
tee on resolutions This they did with
out avail The platform adopted pro-
vides for the taxation of second class
railroad property at local rates. This
would add about 100000 TO the ST.
100000 Of taxes paid annually by the
railroads in this state OF the $4OQ,-
600 increase Jersey City alone would
receive about $4,000. This is due
to the fact that so much second class
