Raising
Salaries Defeated

The Amendment raising the SAL
aries of state officers which at first
was thought to have been ratified by
the voters, was defeated. 1t had a
locker in it allowing presidential
electors $1,000 for sevices in casting
the vote for president 1t will there
fore be regretted by few that this a
mendment was defeated.
In this connection it is curious to
note how far the country has travelled
in it's little over century history. Al
students of our history are aware the
territory now embraced in the state
of Tennessee was first organized as
the state of Franklin.
The last session of the Franklin
Legislature met in Septem Der, 1881
A searcher IN ancient archives re-
Gently came across the Journal of that
legislature. One of the FACTS" OF
that body is decidedly interesting
now in comparison with California
state salaries and as an example OF
primitive financiering. The law is as
follows:
"Be 1t enacted by the General
Assem- bly, of the State of Franklin,
and it is hereby enacted by the
authority of the same: That from the
1st day of January, 178S, the salaries
of the officers on this commonwealth
be as follows, towit
ellis excellency tue governor, per
annum, 1000 deerskins.
ellis honor the chief justice, $40
deerskins.
"The secretary to his excellency
I the governor, 500 raccoon skins.
"The treasurer of the state. 45C
raccoon skins.
each county clerk, 31U beaver
skins.
"Clerk of the house of commons,
200 racooon skin.
"Justice's fee for signing a war
rant, one muskrat skin.
'"To constable, for serving war
rant. one mink skin.
Enacted into law the 18th day
of October, 1887. under the great sea
of the state.

A MEDF0RD STORY.
Legend of the Phantom Ship and Its
Mad Pirate Captain.

Legend of the Phantom Ship and Its
Mad Pirate Captain.
The town of Medford, Mass, has
legend of phantom ship beside which
the Flying Dutchman is only a peace
full merchantmen. The Medford story
runs that ship laden with rum and
gold and silver bars put out from that
place in the days when the Spanish
main was infested with pirates. 1t
was headed for West Indian port,
but got into the doldrums and was so
long becalmed that water and proyi-
soIs gave out, and all hands persisted
of thirst and starvation. When the
wind came up again the ship sailed
away with her CHASTITY crew, was seen
by a buceaneer, chased and over
hauled.
The pirate captain made fast. to his
prize without firing a single Shot and,
attributing the vessels nonresistance
to fear or lack of arms, he was the
first man to leap on board But the
rope with which the captured ship
had been carelessly dashed to his own
parted under the strain of the seaway,
and he found himself rapidly borne
away from his comrades on what he
soon discovered to be n floating collin.
A stiff breeze filed the sails Of the
derelict, and before his own vessel
could overtake it night descended on
the ocean, and the pursuing ship lost
sight OF it altogether. Left alone in
pitch darkness on the grewsome craft,
the pirate went mad with terror ard,
selzlng the wheel, raced away before
the wind and, according to the legend
was condemned to range the seas for
ever thus in command of his horrible
| prize.
Woe to the ship that encountered it
scudding along by moonlight or in the
lightnings glare, manned by skeletons
and steered by a shouting, gesticulat-
ing mailman, and when on several oc'
casions it was sighted in the fog OFF
Medford it was considered as the her
aid Of storm and disaster and the loss
Of many ships.-New York Press
