FOR EFFICIENT GOVERNMENT.

The crying need of Amador county
ment. 1t is little use to talk about
attracting immigration thitherwaId
Until we mend our ways in local
management. We must have govern
ment for the people, not for a clique
and favored few, otherwise our terri
tory is not likely to forge ahead as it
should do considering its natural
advantages. We have no hesitation
in saying we are not getting efficient
government. On the contrary, we
are getting wIetchedly inefficient,
recklessly extravagant government.
The samples of misgovernment al
ready pointed out in these columns
recently are conclusive proof of this
statement. If the abuses cited were
Knowingly tolerated by the supervls-
ing hoard, they constitute good
grounds for investigation by a grand
jury with view of indicting the
officials responsible therefor. If the
abuses have been going on without
the knowledge of officials who are
elected for the purpose of guarding
the peoples interests IN such matters,
they reveal a system of carelessness
and inetficiency which is equally re-
prehensibIe, and demands judicial in,
vestigation. The Ledger is firmly
committed to the task of doing what
1t can to redeem this fair county from
the whitening blight of misrule.
Whether the change comes speedily
or after a protracted struggle, it
matters not to us. There Will be no
final Iet-up to the pulley until a
better state of affairs prevails IN
local management. There is no
partisanshIp in this fight. We can
not hope to prosper as county I'M
less there is reasonable share of
diligence and efficiency shown in the
conduct of public business.

Chinese Troops Good Runners.

In the drilling of recruits for the
Chinese army each man is required to
carry sand in his knapsack. For the
first day he carries two ounces; on
each succeeding day he increases this
amount by two ounces until at last he
is carrying sixteen pounds. These men

tive hours and arrive at the end Of
that time in a fit condition for fighting.

1t would be a notew orthy exception
to the rule, if legislature failed to
give boost in some direction to the
salaries or compensation of county
officers. The last Legislature was
not an exception in this regard. at
the meeting of the board of super
visors this month bill was present
ed and allowed TOR the sum of $50, for
compensation of the county auditor
In preparing a report and necessary
data for the past six months in regard
to the monthly allowances for
orphans, half orphans, and abandoned
children. This Is the first bill of
this nature that has been allowed,
and of course the people generally
will be glad to know the basis of the
charge. The bill itself refers to Sec.
4099 of the statutes of 1907, being a
part of the new county government
bill. Turning to that section we
lind it reads as follows:
4099.-It shall be and is hereby
made the duty of every county audi
tor in the State of California to keen
all the books and necessary accounts
with reference to payments made by
the county of which he is auditor for
minor orphans and half orphans, and
abandoned children, and to prepare
the necessary data and make out all
claims against the state for such pay
ments, and the board of supervisors
may allow the auditor a reasona BILE
compensation for performing the extra
duty herein provided.
According to this section it Is not
mandatory upon the supervisors to
allow extra compensation for the
work named. The fixed salary is
supposed to be the compensation in
full for all services that are or may
be hereafter required of the official.
The strict reading of the new section
leaves it to the discretion of the
board of supervisors to allow fail
compensation for the extra work.
But more serious objection to the
allowance at this time arises from
the constitutional provision, g:
follows:
Sec. 9. The compensation of any
county, city, town. or municipal
officer shall not be increased aftel
his election or during his term o.
office; nor shall the term of any suct
officer be extended hey ond the period
for which he is elected or appointed
Experience shows that even the
fundamental law is brushed aside
with little ceremony when the ques
tion of compensation is concerned.
The restraints in this direction i'm.
posed by the constitution do not
count for much. AS 1t now stands, il
the action of the supervisors is the
criterion for the future, the intro,
duction of this new provision amounts
to permanent addition of sixty
dollars per year to the compensation
of the auditor in Amador county.

AmadOr County's Heavy Taxpayers.

In accordance with our usual GUS
tom, We publish this week a list of
taxpayers who are on the assessment
rclI for $4,000 and over. This year on
account of the many changes in
valuations for assessment purposes
the list will have especial inter est.
OF course it is not absolutely correct,
and some property holders have pro-
perty in all townships, and others
have mortgages as we'll as real estate.
We have endeavored to get them all,
but no doubt some items have been
overlooked. 1t will be seen that the
big taxpayers are bearing by all odds
the lions share of the burden of
government.

Amador Style VS.. Elsewhere

Last month the Ledger devoted
considerable space to discussing the
peculiaIities of the system adopted IN
this county in calling for and award
and printing for county officers, and
also to the absence of all contract
arrangements in regard to the main
items of stationery, such az record
books. We presented to our readers
some of the absurdities of the
stationery list as adopted for the
basis of the bidding for such sup
plies, and also the fact that after the
contract was let it was of little prac-
tical Walt in regulating the prices.
In other words, the thing was so fixed
up that it mystitied instead of clari-
fed the subject. In striking contrast
with the method that by some process
to US unknown has crept into Amador
county affairs, We are now able to
present a list of prices adopted In
Monterey county for ordinary station
airy supplies, as awarded to the lowest
bidder. The people of Amador
county can see the difference. We
simply compare at this time the one
item OF paper, as space forbids US to
print and comment upon the entire
list at this time. The Monterey
schedule is clear-cut; there is no
lightweight for Interior purposes at
tsched to it. On the other hand the
Amador list is absurd upon its face;
impossible of being carried into
actual practice. The Monterey list of
paper supplies is as follows.
Willamette legal cap, plain or
numbered, any weight, ream 500
Bank parchment cap, per ream 200
Golden Gate cap. per ream 150
Letter tablets, 100 sheets, each OILS
Manila, 100 sheets : OILS
Blotting paper, per pound 010
The Amador list comprising such
supplies reads as follows:
No. best quality legal cap,
16 lbs per ream, Royal Mills 81. Co
No. best quality foolscap,
IL lbs, per ream O.9O
No. best quality bill cap,
IL lbs, per ream O.65
No. legal cap, l6 lbs, per ream D. II
No. fooIscap, l6 lbs., per ream Oh
No. bill cap, 10 lbs, per ream OBJ
No. 1 best quality letter cap,
II lbs, per Ieau Ito
No. . letter cap. best quality,
Il lbs, per ream 0.09
No. l best quality note paper,
3 lbs, per ream 0.09
No. 2 note paper, lbs, per ream O.
Manila legal tablets, 7Ax124,
Blackstone, per doz LAO
2BlottIng paper. sheets 19x24,
extra heavy, 40 lbs, per ream 1.75
10 the unInitiated the Amador list
may seem much the more advantage
Gus to the taxpayers than the other
schedule. But those who understand
such things, will say differently.
The Monterey list is simply based on
articles that are called for, and in
quantities that are actually needed.
There is nothing of the mo. 2 best
quality 16 lbs. u about it-meanIngless
expressions used in such connection.
Such supplies cannot be had, for they
are not made. So the three items
called for are legal cap at g. 60,
against 81 for the Monterey schedule.
Manila tablets, 15o each for Monterey
and 81. 40 per dozen for Amador, a
slight difference in favor of the
latter. But the blotting paper item
shows the difference in the motives of
the two lists. Monterey calls for 10
cents per pound, and doubtless orders
by the pound. That is the way paper
