fees in question belonged to the county

the 1913 session of the General AS
sembly another act was passed fixing
schedule of fees to be taxed and col
lected by clerks of the circuit court and
concluding with a section containing
the following provision relating to the
fees collected under the act of 1909:
"'All of the fees so taxed, charged
or collected under pursuant to said act
from and after said 10th day of April.

ing the property of the clerks tax

be taken and deemed TO belong to and
be the property of such clerks and

hereby legalized.'
Until the contrary has been judi
cially declared. this department must
assume that the above provisions are
a valid exercise of Legislative power.
If So the fees for which Mr.. Kelley
has filed a claim belong to him. and
he IS entitled to have them repaid 10
him by the county upon an allowance
being made to him by the county COM
missioners Attention Is called to the
fact. l owever. that the 1913 act denies

THE ART OF LISTENING.

Education has to do with all of
life, and the chief road to learning is
to be a good listener.
Anybody can tell a story with more
or less success-but listening is fine
art. We are educated not by our
tongues but by our ears and eyes.
Talking is a necessity to the per-
son who needs to explain; but men
of action rarely have time for it. 1t
is expensive, gratutious and full OF
hazard.
The giants of Brobdignag fined a
man for commenting upon the obvi-
Gus, and one of the chief benefits of
college is that students are not called
upon to recite until they have read
or listened.

lions of laborers and wayfarers: New

ton, the greatest mind of all ages"
said of himself that he seemed like
a traveller who had picked up only a
few pebbles along the shore of the
sea of knowledge.
Talking is expression, and has its
place in the development Of thought
when it is done carefully; for express
sion through either speech or work
improves the mind, as an encyclo-
pedia increases knowledge by CLASH
flying 1t. But talking, to be of value.
must follow knowledge and not pre-
cede it.
Listening comes before learning
upon the condition, however. that we
listen to the right people. 1t is only
the strong and well-developed mind
that can afford the risk of listening
to those whose lives do not stand for
ambition and work. and God himself
is said to have listened to the devil
only once, and then He got into
trouble by dealing so unjustly with a
good man that it required the services
of three philosophers and forty chap
ters to explain the matter: and the
explanations amounted to nothing
very definite after all, because every
body talked, except the One who
knew, and nobody listened

AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind. Sept 1.-THE
board of accounts has given Off
cial opinion which Will enable every
county clerk in the state from 1909 to
1913 to collect from the county the
thousands of dollars of fees which the
clerks collected and paid into the coun-
try treasury and which were the sub
ject of a legalizing act passed by the
Legislature OF 1913.
The Legislature of 1909 passed an act
fixing the fees to be collected by coun-
ty clerks and designated which fees
belonged to the county and which be-
longed to the clerks. Under this law
some clerks collected the fees and re-
tanned the portion which the law said
they were entitled to, paying the re-
er clerks. wishing to take no chances in
their own favor. collected and paid into
the county treasury all of the fees.
The supreme court later held the 1909
act invalid. dthis carried the clerks
back to the 1895 fee law. under which
all fees collected belonged to the coun-
ty. The clerks formed a lobby last
winter and swooped down on the legis-
lature with bill to legalize all feet
that had been retained by the clerks
under the 1909 act. The bill was pass
ed. Then the question arose as 10
whether the 1919 law applied to any
clerks except those who had retained
the fees. If this was the case, then. IT
was painted out there was a discrim-
ination against those clerks who col l.
lected and paid the fees into the county
Treasury
The question was put up to the board
of accounts by J. Francis Lochard.
auditor of Ripley county William ].
Kelley. clerk OF Ripley county, was one
of the clerks that paid the fees into
the county treasury. and not long ago
| he made up itemized bill for these
fees and presented the bill to the audi
tor with 7. demand for a warrant for
the amount. He proposed that the
county should refund the money &c
him. he taking the position that under
the 1913 act he was entitled to It, But
the auditor refused to issue the war
rant until after the matter had beer
passed on by the state board of ac-
| counts. So he submitted the question
and the board has held that Kelley is
entitled to the money. This ruling
| will open up the county treasures to
all clerks who have fees tied up ir
them. The letter the board wrote to
