dollars per day each, and put the other one dollar in his own pocket The com panies were required also to pay all ex- penses of board and lodging for the deputies: Therefore, the one dollar per day on each of them that he slipped down into the recesses of his own pocket, was clear profit.
 What does the public think of the Sheriff making money in that way? Does not the office pay enough without resort ing to such methods? And was not that a clear case of holding up the companies? D-u he not take advantage of those stren- uous times to extort money from the companies? But what could the com panies do but pay him his price, as they needed deputy sheriffs to protect their property and he only, under the law has the power to appoint a deputy sheriff!
 Besides the large amount of money col lected out of the companies, as before stated, Sheriff Higdon will also get $5 for every arrest he or his deputies made during the strike, where the party was put in jail, and afterwards made bond. Where the party arrested was not locked up in jail, he will get $3 for every arrest. The fees allowed him are as follows: Two dollars for each arrest; one dollar for locking the prisoner in the county jail; one dollar for turning him out of 1ail; and an extra one dollar fee for ap proving his bond And I might here re- mark that these fees apply not only to ar rests in the strike cases, but to all other arrests made by the sheriff and his depu- ties When the trial comes on, if the ar rested party be convicted and sent to the penitentiary the sheriff gets his fees paid at once by the state; if the party Is sentenced to hard labor for the county. he gets his fees paid as soon as the prisoner earns enough to settle the costs of court. If on the other hand, the de- fendant is acquitted, he gets his fees just the same only they have to come out of the fine and forfeiture fund, in which case payment is delayed for about one year or little longer.
 The fact that the sheriffs fees are paid regardless of whether the defendant be. guilty or innocent, convicted or ac- quilted, is a strong incentive for him to make all the arrest that he can.
 Knowing this, the public may judge for itself why many arrests are made on evidence insufficient to Justify convic- tions. Such cases, however, when brought into court, have to be tried at great expense to the county, else mol pressed. H. r. HEF'FlN,
 Solicitor for Jefferson County.

PHILATHEA BAZAAR IS
 PROVING GREAT SUCCESS

The bazar given by the Philathea class of the St. Johns M. D. church at the Broyles Furniture company's store, 2014 First avenue, Is meeting with great suc- cess. On the ground floor the large show windows have been attractively filled with articles both useful and ornamental which may be purchased at attractive prices. Mr. Bryoles has also kindly given the ladies space on the third floor in which to prepare and serve lunches. It was literally patronized yesterday. Bus mess men who haven't time to go home to lunch are especially invited to this pleasant place for their meals. The menu for today is as follows:
 Turkey and ham sandwiches, salad, pickles, olives, crackers, coffee choco- late and cake. Oysters will probably be served tonight.
