COURT CLERKS ARE
MUCH EXERCISED


District court clerks are much ex-
ercised over the disposition of the
two district clerk fee bills introduced
IN the house by Dunham OF Pottawat.
omle and Durant Of Bryan-Atol1a.
fnlbhanfs bin was first introduced
Sfialii ealls for material reduction In
the present scale of fees which is the
territorial scale, as the constitutional
act creating the office failed to pro.
vide for fees for it. ~ MW
Duranta bill, which was prepared
hastily and introduced for the pur-
pose Of having the two bills referred
TO the same committee where their
merits may be fought out, is drawn
from the Texas fee bill and provides
for the continuance of the present
scale.
Charles Giiswoli of Guthrie. chair
man of the district clerks association
Of the STATE. has received over 100
letters Of inquiry IN regard TO fees
since statehood Under the territorial
regime clerks received fees from six
or seven counties. Since statehood
I they are limited to the fees from one
lcourty and the fees IN United States
cases are now afd scted bv United
/ States district CLERKS. The clerks say
also. that the establishment Of coun-
( ty courts have taken away one-third
of the fees in county causes by giving
the new court jurisdiction in misde.
! meanor cases.

to what his memory recalled. Investi-
CATION, however, assured him that the
Gables in the mansion near the lake
we're the people he had known In New
York. Bansemer took no ono into his
confidence, not even broom. Once con-
WINGED that the erstwhile fireman was
now the rich and powerful magnate, he
set to work upon the machinery which
was to extract personal gain from the
secret In his possession. He soon
learned that the child was young wo-
man of considerable standing In socie-
ty, but there was no way for him to
ascertain whether Frances Gable had
told the truth to her husband in those
dreary far west days.
Bansemer was rich enough, but
avarice had become habit. The flight
from New York had deprived him Of
but little In worldly goods. His III got
ten gains came with him, and invest
ments were just as easy and just as
safe In Chicago as in New York. Now
he saw chance to wiring handsome
sum from the rich woman whose only
possession had been love when he FIRST
knew her. II the secret Of James
origin still remained locked up In her
heart the effort would be an easy one.
He learned enough Of David Gable,
however. to know that II he shared the
secret the plan would be prohtless and
dangerous.

The proposition, while sincere aud
earnest, was too impossible for words.
For once In his life James Bansemer
was at loss for subterfuge. He
stammered. flushed and writhed in the
effort to show the young man that the
step would be Improbable, and he was
sorely, conscious that he had not con.

urged him to abandon the thought of
becoming n lawyer and was ably Sec

career. With luck 1t was bound to en-.

plans had been SO well prepared and
the execution had been SO faultless thai
there seemed to be no possibility Of
failure. To take his fair minded son.
with the mothers eyes, into the game
would be suicidal. The young fellow
would turn from him forever. Banse-
mer never went 90 far a. to wonder
whence came the honest blood In the
boys veins nor to speculate on the orr
gin Of the unquestioned integrity. he
had but to recall the woman who bore
him. the woman whose love was the
only good thing he ever knew, the
wife he had worshiped while he sinT(od.
For years and years he had piled his
unwholesome trade In regulations,
sometimes evading exposure BY the
narrowest Of margins. and he had
come to believe that he was secure for
all time to come. But It was the "bls
job that brought disaster. Just when
