TUESDAY, JANUARY %, 1906.

BURLINGTON county has more stains on
her fair name by the events of the past
week in criminal circles. Fortunately one
of the cases has been proved without
foundation of charge of murder and
equally unfortunately there remain the
facts of one of tie most brutal murders
that has ever been chronicled in this
neighborhood. With this crime before
them it is hardly likely that the members
of the Legislature from Burlington, es-
pecially the Speaker, within easy access
of whose home the murder was committed,
will be in any hurry to support bill
abolishing capital punishment.

The ANNUAL agitation on the subject
of abolishing fees and placing all county
officials on salary is again being discussed,
and there seems to be some promise of the
measure becoming reality. The wave
of reform that is now sweeping over the
country is reaching into all corners,
and wherever there seems to be a chance
to retrench or reform in the matter of ex
pense it is quickly grasped. There will,
of course, be great diversion on the amour
to be paid the different officers. The bill
now under consideration fixes the salaries
of Sheriff, County Clerk, and Surrogate in
Burlington county at $500 per year.
This does not suit the present occupants
of the Offices, who see great reduction in
their receipts il the fees are abolished
But that need not worry those who
are giving attention to the measure
The people will not find much fault if the
fees now received are turned into the
county treasury and used towards paying
salaries, as that move will put money in
the county box. The term of the present
Surrogate expires this year, hence the
change will not affect him much, and the
new man will know just what he may ex-
pect. In the case of the Sheriff and Clerk
the amount named will be ample for the
work they do, with a reasonable allowance
for clerk hire. With salary attached to
these Offices there would not be any need
for the bills which are put before the
Board of Freeholders at every meeting for
extra services performed by the Clerk.
While it is perfectly natural for an official
who is in receipt of good fees to object to
a salary much below the amount that has
been flowing in, it must be borne in
mind that 1t will be no trouble to find men
willing to accept the responsibilities at the
salary mentioned, men perfectly compe-
tent to successfully administer the affairs
of the positions. The most responsible Of
fee in the county-that of County Collec-
tors satisfactorily conducted on salary
of 81, 200, and the incumbent gives a
bond for 800, The salary scheme is
a good one. and it is to be hoped it will be
successfully carried through this time

REFERRING to the report of the commit
tee of the board of freeholders which adj
vocated having the election tickets printed
on contract hereafter, one newspaper,
after publishing the fact that the report
was approved, says: "This, however, lies
entirely in the discretion of the Clerk
under the law" This may be so and it
may not. But, even if it is that way, it
would hardly be wisdom for the Clerk to
refuse to conform to the wishes of the
board in this respect, especially if the
new move would result in pecuniary ad-
vantage to the county, as it undoubtedly
will. The provision requiring the sue
cessful bidder to give bond for 1000
for the faithful completion of the work
will be very beneficial. These remarks
are merely incidental as there is no posi-
tive knowledge that there will be refusal
to respect the recommendation of the com
mittee. On this subject of contract what
is the matter with having all the supplies
for the county offices put out under con-
tracts Let the committee on court house
and grounds advertise for bids for such
things as can readily be contracted for.
Shoes, clothing, painting, many things
can be bid on. Let the printing commit
tee pursue the same course on stationery
and other articles furnished the offices 1t
will not result detrimentally to the county.

A distinguished senator from the
northwest strolled into the barber shop
in the senate wing one day for a shave.
The chairs were all occupied. The
statesman, seeing this. started to go out,
with the idea of returning little later,
but the head barber of the tonsorial
parlor sought to detain the senator. he
called after him in rather strident
tone:
you're the next, senator!
The northwestern senator wheeled
about, assuming a sad smile, placed q
hand over his fast pulsating heart az
though the throbbing there panied him
and said to the head barber.
"Be good enough not to remind me
Of that any oftener than you can help
l understand fully that l am tabled
but permit me to enjoy what peace
may until the blow falls"
And the occupants Of the chair
chuckled under their soapy MASKS
