Coolest January In Years.

The monthly bulletin issued by
the Weather bureau reports that
over the central eastern portions
OF the country the month of Jan
uary was, on the whole, among
the coolest in the history of the
department, and during the first
half Of the month the extent of
territory affected by the cold and
persistence with which it contin-
ued have probably not been ex-
ceeded in recent years.
The West Virginia sub-burea
reports the past month as the
coolest January since 1893, and
except for February 10th, 1899,
the lowest temperature of rec
ord, generally from zero to 81
degrees below, occurred on the
18th.
The month of February bids
fair to keep up the pace set by
January, as hardly a night has
passed that the mercury has not
dropped to below zero. The riv-
er has been frozen up nearly all
month and sleighing and sled
ling are now popular means of
conveyance.

Supreme Court Decides Against
SheriffS.

Charleston, Feb. THAT
sheriffs are not entitled to ten
per cent interest added to taxes
collected after January 1st and
that they must turn into the
county treasury fifteen per cent
OF the emoluments of the Office
after the total receipts aggregate
5000, is the opinion of the
state supreme court written by
President Henry Brannon in the
case of Nease against Smith,
sheriff of Kanawha county.
The case settled was that of
Nease VS.. Smith, sheriff of Kan
wanawha county in which are
involved the right of the sheriff
to ten per cent interest added to
taxes not paid until after Janu-
airy l, whether the sheriff is en-
titled to five or seven and one
half cents for collecting road
taxes, and whether he is COM
PEELED to turn into the county
treasury 10 per cent Of the emolu-
ments Of this office after they
had reached So, 900
The supreme court held against
the sheriff on the interest and
fifteen per cent points and al
lowed the sheriff the seven and
one-half per cent for collecting
road taxes.
The settling of the interest
question will result in about
$50, 900 being turned back by the
sheritfs into the county treasur-
les. The question of discount
was not involved in this suit and
therefore still remain to be set
tied by the court.

The above will be of much
more interest to the taxpayers of
other counties than it will be to
those Of Calhoun. In very few
counties have the sherifs ac-
counted for the interest which
they have collected on taxes paid
after the first of January. How
ever, in this county Sheriff Jar
Wis has accounted for and turned
over to the county all such inter
est, and instead of the county's
resources being increased by this
decision, the County Court will
be compelled to refund to the
Sheriff additional commission of
two and one-half per cent on all
road taxes collected by him, as
IN the settlements only five per
cent was charged.

most surely for the policy Of the rule
Of the people 10 related to state prob
lens.
This Is especially true - to the can
didate on yodr ticket Tor governor.
Had not the progressive leaders placed
before the voters the name Of Mr.. Mar
tin, thousands Of our citizens would
have refused to vote for governor. 1t
Is remarkable fact that although Mr..
Hawley had no opposition in his party
at the primaries. yet the combined
preferences for both he and Mr.. Haines
as expressed by the vote represented
less than one half Of the total vote cast
at the primaries and not more than
one-fifth OF the total vote OF the state.
Besides both Mr.. Haines and Mr. Haw-
ley represent 80 nearly the same pol
icies, that the voters who expressed q
preference for one would in most in
stances be willing to vote for the
other.
While the great body Of the voters
who l believe disapproye OF the pol
icies Of both Mr.. Haines and Mr.
Hawley would have felt that they could
not conscientiously have voted for
either and would have in effect been
DISTINGUISHED SO far as that office II
concerned, had not your party filed the
name Of Mr.. Martin who I believe Is
thoroughly progressive and capable
candidate for that high office.
Now lest some should think me par
tial, ! want to state that ! am most
heartily supporting the entire county
Republican ticket and 1t will behoovt
every voter to most thoughtfully vote
his legislative ticket lest he help elect
to the legislature some one who may
vote against the reelection Of oul
brilliant and worthy senator whose
term Is about to expire and who may
vote for the election Of reactionary
Democrat for United States from
Idaho.
The United States senate is the re.
manning stronghold for the protection
OF privilege and a senator from Idaho
| is as important as senator from any
other state in the Union.
