Hoard's jefferson County Union:
Assemblyman C. r. Goldworthy is hav-
ing controversy with the Central
r. R. Co., over the fact that a ticket
was not used the day it was purchased.
Under the present law of the state
fixing railroad fare at cents a mile
We do not believe any railroad has the
legal right to limit the life of ticket.
Il has taken pay for fixed amount of
transportation and the time when trans
portation shall be used in justice, be-
longs TO the holder of the ticket and not
the railroad company that sold it. 1t

believe to impose any other conditions,
especially that which limits time of

If the government is finally brought
into paving civil pensions it would cost
Uncle Sam tidy sum. The average
salary of civil-service employees is near
" 81, 100. Practically all pension plans
figure on the retiring clerks getting an
annuity of at least half their salaries.
Once the system were fully established
there would probably be an average of
So 600 persons on the pension rolls.
This would mean an annual expendi-
ture of more than 25, 000, 900. The civ
il pension list of England costs some
SIT, 900, 600 year. Madison Democrat.
A civil pension list should never be
Established in either state or nation.
Il will be remembered that Governor
Davidson vetoed bill passed by the
late legislature retiring supreme court
Judges on half-pay.
