THE sALAisY BILL.

The salary hill introduced by Mr..
Winter raises the salary OF the sheriff
from S2i0O. Il year to $1,000 and gives
him an additional deputy ut s75 a
month and 90 per zen of the sheep
licenses he collects.
Last year Sheriff Clark collected
s4T50 for sheep Licences upon winch
his commission was $3.50. THIS increas-
ed his salary over ST5 per month. In
addition to this no receives Il revenue
from the board Of the prisoners in the
county Jail which al least eusily raises
the perquisites OF his office TO Sl0O per
month. This with HE salIry nf S2,IOO,
makes the oifice worth S36CO n year or
$500 per month, n sum amply sufficient
to rem anerate him handsomely for his
official work. II the Winter bill be-
comes a law, the sheriffs Office will be
worth $4,000 Il year, mt least, to the in.
cumbent. This, in the judgement Of
the writer, is excessive.
The salary of S75 per month for the
additional deputy is not sufficient pay
for a competent man and should be
RAISED to SlO0 per month. rhe same is
true Of the deputy provided for the
county recorder. The deputy sheriff
and the deputy recorie: should be
paid the same us the deputy coouiy
clerk. The writer has IN Investigated the
work i'll the recorders Office and is now
convinced TINT the deputy recorder
should be paid $50 Il month.
The isseRsor is provided with M office
deputy ut S75 per month for SIX months
ind two filed deputies at 800 per month
each for month in the year. 1t is q
well KNOW fact TINT the assessor has
very little to- do Ion ut .cnst six months
in the year and his present salary Of
$4,000 Pave him well for the work he
does. These two deputies may DO ne.
ceasary, but the writer believes that one
deputy for three months wuuld be
amply sufficient. II it is not the intcu.
ton Of the Legislators to make this office
"A s%inecure, they should cut down the
number OF deputies provided for in the
Winter bill. Tho assessor, like the other
officers shonId earn his salary.
So far as the rsiss of salaries is con.
cerned, the 70 may be some reason and
justice in raising the salaries Of the
clerk and treasurer TO $4,000 per year,
the snme rs the assessor now receives.
but there is neither right or justice in
raising the ~salarica OF the assessor,
clerk and treasurer, and county 70.
corder to $4,000. II the raise is made
by the Legislature. it should not 20 into
effect until the expiration Of the terms
OF the present officials.
In regard to the raise in the ~snIuries
OF the commissioners irom 800 to sGUO
per year, there cnn be no justification
for it, nDltss they arc given more work
to do. They now receive ~ 0 Il ycar
and mileage which certainty CON-
%pensatee them for spending Il day or
two each month nj the county seat
attending to the county business. The
writer believes tina the county commis-
sioncrs should be better paid il tEey
are given more work to- do. A law
ought to be passed making each con-
missioner look after the road work in
his district ind paying bin Il per diem,
nnd expenses Tor so doing That wonId
be just To the tdxpHS crs and TO the
commissioners.
