SALARIES OF
OFFICERS
Board Of Commissioners Decides to
Leave That Of County Treasurer As
Is Also That of Deputies.


The board of county commissioners
are discussing the matter of the salar-.
les of county officers and deputies to-
day. according to the law, the salar-
les of county, officers are fixed by
statute but it is within the province
of the board to interpret the law A
discussion arose relative to the salary
of county treasurer and because of
the fact of our increased valuation It
was advanced by some that the salary
should be increased. The law states
that where the assessed valuation is
over ten million dollars and does not
exceed eleven million, the salary shall
be $2.4O0. And where it is twelve mil
lion it shall be $2,5OO. AS the as
sessed valuation of this county is over
eleven million the board is somewhat
puzzled as to its right to increase the
salary of the treasurer. The same
was finally left as it now stands, 81
400. and 1t is not probable that the
salaries of deputies will be altered.

JOHN BULL IN
RICHMOND !.

Richmond, Va, Jan. 5.-The various
patriotic and historical societies Of
Richmond held exercises today COM
memorative of that January S, one
hundred and twenty five years ago,
when the British forces entered and
took possession of the town of Rich
mond, which was then as now, the cap
ital of the state Of Virginia. Thomas
Jefferson was governor at the time and
although he had been warned that the
British had invaded Virginia, and that
detachment under command Of Cen
eral Arnold was. approaching Rich
mOnd by way of the James River, his
tory does not record that any resist
ance was offered. The British march
ed into town on January s, 1881. But
Lafayette was quickly dispatched by
General Washington and he; took pos
session of Richmond the Following
April. A short time later CORVALLIS
united with General Arnold and the
city again was taken by the British,
who remained in possession until the
surrender at Yorktown.

ing Of Northern League
at Duluth.

There will be meeting of the
Northern Baseball league called by
President Kent to meet at Duluth the
latter part of the month to outline
plans for the coming year. 1t will be
a general meeting of the cities inter-
ested in the league or those desiring
admittance.
While there is some grumbling
among the hackers of local teams in
some Of the cities on the circuit, it
is probable that they will all be repre-
sented at the meeting at Duluth and
an outline of the years work will be
forthcoming.
While President Kent and the prime
movers in the league are not talking
much about the seasons plans, there
is no question in their judgments but
that the Northern league will con-
tinue this season much as 1t did last
season and the years before. There
will probably be some radical changes,
but baseball, and fast professional
baseball, will be played.

grams, including all expenses, at the
same time offering the advantage of
being lighter than all similar explo-
siyes. To demonstrate the merits of
the new explosive different expert
ments have been made under the sup
vision of men of experience, such as
mining engineers, officers of the army,
and other experts, and the result was
pronounced to be highly successful.
The inventors expect to be able to
do a heavy business with the United
