PAY IS POOR
President and Vice President of United Siaies Gel But Nig-
 gardIy Salaries
IT SHOULD BE MORE

Washington, Dec 19.-EXplaining his bill increasing the salaries of the president and vice president, Senator Jonathan Bourne, Jr, of Oregon to- day said that aside from all senti- ment in the matter, he is of the opin- ion that the man who is big enough to be president of the unted States the biggest corporation in the world, is certainly as big in the business of government as a raiuroad president or the manager of manufacturing combination, and should be paid, as q business proposition, what the de- mands of the position indicate as a fair compensation.
 He declared that he also would make the extra hazardous risk of the position basis for the justice of his bill. He said that while the salary of to-day's business manager is meas ured by the magnitude of the enter prise as well as by his fitness, the presidents salary has never borne any relatively adequate proportion to the mental and physical work and worry of the position, which are an nually increasing.

KELLOGG'S CHANGES

The next big exhibition in the al dermanic chamber will be held next May when the democrats will try to elect a city attorney. The republi- cans are pointing to the dsaffection
 in the democratic side of the house to show that John Kellogg or Some body else agreed upon by republi- can caucus will win out. Indeed they are so sure of this that they are having hot words over 1t already. Some of the republicans are in favor of the retention of Mr Kellogg while others favor change, but all of them are of one mind so far as hold ing the berth goes This is all right, but the boys should not fall out about that city ajtorneyship. The democrats are only joshing them. When the lime comes 10 elect an at torney they will find the democrats standing shoulder 10 shoulder and this will be more of a surprise 10 NIr Larkin than it was when he learned that he had to have ten votes to tamper with the annual ap- propriations. Of course the unfair ness of this law is very apparent now, but curiously enough it never appeared so until it became the priv ilege and the duty of democrat 10 exercise il.

While Downs held him Lums- den reached under his arm and fired two shots, one of which took effect.

BRIDGEPORT SPEEDER.
Came to Town and Settled for Auto
 Ride.

James H. Kelly of Bridgeport made a trip through Waterbury Wednes- day evening in his touring car and when coming up South Main street the officers claim he was overspeed- ing. They tried to find out where he stopped, but failed to locate him. Later his name and residence was learned and warrant was issued for his arrest and served upon him yes terday. As soon as he heard he was wanted he came to town and settled his case on payment of $10. He ap- peared to be quite an agreeable gen tleman and stated that he was not aware that the speed of the machine at the time he passed through here was anything like what the officers represented it to have been, but even so, he preferred to settle rather than contest the case. and he paid and left apparently without any bad feeling over the affair.

LILLEl'S LAWYERS.
COnstitutiOnality of the "Elcction
 Court" Will Be Questioned.

New Haven, Dec. There wac a conference in this city yesterday by the lawyers who have to do with the case brought by George l.. Fox against GovernOr-elect George l.. Lilley The chief object of the con ference was consideration of the question whether the counsel for Mr Lilley would bring Immediately some extraordinary proceedings, such as writ of prohibition to put stop at the first stage, so far as the intro duction of testimony is concerned, 10 the inquiry into the corrupt prac- tices alleged to have been committed in the last election. II is practically settled that the case will in lts course strike the constitutional snag
 The reasons advanced are in the first place that if Alr Lilley does not avail himself of his rights under the law at the outset he will forfeit any appeal to those rights in the SubSe- quenL proceedings. The supreme court has held that the matters of jurisdiction and law shall precede matters of fact and so, Mr Lilley, i'll order to conserve all his rights, must start at the beginning.

CITY MARSHAL GETS
A DIPLOMATIC HUNCH

Huntington Herald: The city mar
shal got on his roller skates last
Tuesday, and was berating one OF
Iour business men because he OPP
posed his reelection 10 the ofiice OF
marshal. The Herald would advise
Mr.. Brown that a large proportion
OF the business men OF Huntington
do not approve OF the manner I'm
which he conducts his office; and
while they have remained silent In
the past Is no indication they In
tend to do so In the future. The
Herald proposes to keep a closer tab
on city AFFAIRS this year than 1t did
last; and II the marshall neglects
his duties and behaves himself in a
disgraceful manner we propose to
show him up In his true colors. On
the other hand. should he mend his
ways. we will give him the praise
that Is his due.
