CLERICAL ERRORS.
Make Fee and Salary Bill Hardship on
shawnee Officials.

Because there was an error in the
record kept by the house or senate
clerks, the salaries of County Clerk
Oscar Swayze and County Treasurer
Matt Weightman have been reduced
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year. No eff
fort was made by the legislature to
reduce these salaries and the law as
it was passed meant a loss of $500
year to each of these officials, through
a clear clerical error
In the office of clerk of the district
court, the legislature adopted a pro-
vision which made the salary $4,000
instead of $4,000. But another c1er-
zeal error occurred there. This error
left the court clerks salary at $4,000.
The offices of treasurer and county
clerk are among the busiest places
in the Shawnee county court house
Consequently when it was discovered
that the salaries for these officials had
been reduced in the preparation of the
record of the fee and salary bill, it
meant a decided hardship on both
Swayze and Weightman.
Possibly the next legislature can be
induced to make good on this clerical
error. But nothing can be done to
relieve the situation before 1915.
Members of the legislature have re-
turned to their homes and the record
of the session must be kept just as it
was written.

Cold Snap Believed to Have
Destroyed Peach Buds.
Other Fruit Not Injured, 1T Is
Thought.

The remaining peach buds. if there
were any, are believed to have been
frozen last night. The minimum tenn
perature was 16 degrees above zero,
and this is believed to be sufficient to
kill them. The buds on the peach trees
had swelled and far advanced. A num-
Der of fruit raisers claim that they
were too far along and that an ordi-
last night, was sufficient to kill them.
The other fruit trees are not so far
advanced, and as practically all are
more hardy than the peach. it is be-
lieved that none have been damaged.
