DOUBLE PAY AT PRIMARIES
Twice Three-DOIIar-Day Wage Likely
10 BE Paid 10 the Elec-
tiOn OmcerH.

II is more than likely the judges and
clerks of the primary election will receive
twice the customary IS a day for their
services. In response to move before
the council to pay more than 50, which
was supposed to be decreed by law, City
Attorney Breen has written an opinion
election officers as far as it likes. II the
council can scrape up the money, and this
is a likely possibility, wages will go up.
Mr.. Breen said
In response to your request for an opinion
as to the compensation of the judges and
clerks of the primary election to be held
on April g. 1900 l would ADVISE you: The
theory of the Dodge primary law seems TO
have been that primary uay should DE
the first day of registration. and that the
.egistrars should be the judges OF the
primary election and serve as such without
additional compensation. However, In the
case of the state against DreXel the SUI
preme court declared so much of the prt-
mary law as provided that primary day
should be the first day OF registration to
be unconstitutional anu void. SO much Of
the law, however, as makes the registrars
the judges of the primary election is still
effective and in full force.
Clearly il was not the intention of the
legislature that the registrars should serve
on primary day in any capacity without
stands. ON primary day the registrars Will
serve In the capacity OF judges only ana
not as registrars, hence the provision fix
ing the pay OF registrars Is not applicable.
Tine statutes arc wholly silent TO the
compensation of primary election officers.
aud therefore 1 am OF the opinion. ana
so advise you, that IL Is for your honorable
body to TX and allow as. compensation
of the primary election such sum IN
your judgment is reasonable and just.
