AN AMENDMENT TO OPPOSE

At the election next November,
there will be submitted to the people
an amendment to the constitution to
do away with the office of county
treasurer. The reason alleged for
submitting this amendment is that
the office of county treasurer is a
sinecure and an useless expense.
The Star will oppose this amend
ment. We see enough of the work
Of the county treasurer of Marion to
know that the Office is no sinecure
It's duties are easier to perform than
those of other Offices, but, all the
same, it calls for considerable work
in a county the size of Marion, and a
great deal OF responsibility.
It has probably not occurred to
the people who are trying to push
the amendment thru that the coun-
tvs money will not keep itself au-
tomatically Somebody must look
after it, somebody must be response
bic and somebody must be paid for
the work. If the Office Of treasurer
is abolished, the work must be load
ed On the already oyerburdened Of
fee OF the circuit court clerk, and
what little money may be saved to
the county by aboHshing an office
will be more than made up by OPP
portuntties. ii not necessities, for
confusion in accounts.
The Star has seen it grayely stat
ed that any bank could do the treas
urer's work, and would be glad to at
tend to it for the county for moth
ing.
This is an entirely foolish propo-
sition. In Marion county are five
banks, each one of which has as
much right to It's share OF the county
business as any other bank. To set
| tie which one Of them should be Gus
todian of the county funds would be
equivalent to holding an election for
| treasurer. 1t would make an amount
of friction that would be much
/ worse than an election could be. II
| the county commissioners divided the
| funds between the banks in proper
ton to their resources, they would
have to cali in the services of bank
examiner at the beginning of every
fiscal year.
There are a whole lot of ways il
which the legislature can save the
people money without cutting ou
this rather fat and easy but entire
y responsible and necessary office
Vote against the amendment.

ITALY HAS NOTHING ON Us

Savannah News: Porter Charlton
has not yet been tried. He killed
his wife on the shore of Lake Como,

predicted that Italian courts would
furnish American courts a fine OBJ

Of it quickly. And yet month after
