COUNT
Salary Law is Discussed by
the Governor in An
Interview.

CHARLESTON, Sept. 16-"will
You convene the legislature in spe-
cial sessnon TO pass county salary
law2" was asked Governor William
E. Glasscock.
Read my recommendation to the
last legislature" he replied.
In his message to the legislature
referred to the governor laid consid-
cradle stress on the need of such a
law and urged the legislature to en-
act the very thing that is now de-
manded in nearly every section of
the state.
The governor also called attention
to the fact that the present mem
bers of the legislature will cease to
be members, except hold-over sena-
tors. on the last day of November,
instead of on January as many
persons seem to believe, that what
ever could be done would have to
be done before December /.
That part of the governors mes
sage under the title of 1.-THE Salary
Law" 10 which he referred reads:
The report OF the tax commits
sioner will furnish you much in
teresting information with. reference
to the workings Of what is popularity
known as the County Salary Law
being Chapter is of the Acts of the
extraordinary session OF the leglsla-
ture of 1908. Under this lav there
has been paid into the county treas
urles of the various counties of the
state by sher:ffs, clerks and prose-
cutting attorneys the sum of S4S.-
321.91; of that amount s27,965. OF
was paid during the first year OF the
operation of this law by county
clerks, circuit clerks and prose-
cutting attorneys, and the balance
still due from them is $3,94S.23.
There has been collected from the
sherlffs OF the state s2O,S56.S9 up
to october II. 1910. A number of
sheriffs have failed to comply with
the law and refused to pay over the
amounts due from them, and be-
cause OF their failure to comply
with the mandates of the law 1t has
been impossible to ascertain the ex-
act amount due from them.
In my judgment 1t is very
wholesome law. but it does not go
far enough and 1 recommended that
all county officers be placed on a
salary basis. believe such law
would result in a great saving to
many of the counties OF the state,
in fact l know 1t would do so. /
think county officers should have ad-
equate salaries, but the remunera-
tion should be limited to reasonable
amount. am reliably informed
that the Offices of number of coun-
,ty officials net them more than
1910, 100000 a year. and some as
much as $4,000 to $4,000. This
is much more than the services rem.
dered are worth. 1t seems to me
that this is a very opportune time
to enact such law, and provide that
1T shall take effect at the expiration
lof the terms of the present officials
Then man who becomes candI-
date for any of these offices in the
future will do so knowing exactly
what his compensation is to be. and
j am inclined to the opinion that II
such law were enacted there would
be less money corruptly spent for
nominations and elections than there

This seems a complicated sentence,
but nevertheless is very true. Like
all didsctic utterauces, however, il
must be qualified; there is shame
in being poor if the poverty comes
from wastefulness and idlensss.
Degrees of distinction as to the
definition of the word poor" may
DO considered also; it is to be poor
when one wishes for such things.

it is real poverty to long for fine

the household generally needs on

lutte sin to try to obtain these
things at the expense ct others
