SHOULD REGULATE
PAY OF SHEPIFFS
POPULATION BASIS
Mn GRIFFIN STATES HIS POSI-.
TON WITH REFERENCE TO
FEEDING PRISONERS.
PURPOSE OF CAPITOL MEETING
Does Not Believe That Compensation
Should be as Great in Maury as it is
In Smaller Counties Like Lewis and
Lawrence.

! Your interview of me in The Her.
aid of Wednesday, was all right as
far as it went, but | am afraid that |
did not go far enough to make my
position more palmer" said Sheriff
Griffin this morning while talking to
a Herald reporter.
Your statement that Governor Pat
terson vetoed such a bill before the
Legislature was true, and Governor
Hooper did likewise, and | am not
blaming them for doing it, and l be-
lieve they did right in vetoing the bill
in both instances.
Governor Hooper explained the
reasons for his actions in the bill to
me and after he did so | could see
very readily why he took the position
he did. You see it is not the object
OF the Sheriffs at the meeting to be
held next Saturday to have a general
bill passed before the legislature, that
is like the ones that had previously
been passed and vetoed by the Cover
nOrs, but to have a bill passed, allow
ing Sheriffs pay for feeding prisoners
according to the population of the
counties.
"You see it is like this, the key
fees in Davidson, Shelby, Hamilton
and Knox counties are something
enormous, and no Governor is going to
sign bill allowing these counties to
raise the rate of feeding prisoners.
| And then in cities where the markets
are more plentiful prisoners can be
fed cheaper than we sheriffs in the
smaller counties can afford.
What | am in favor of and what
want to get Representative Russell
and English to vote and work for is
to pay sheriffs for feeding prisoners
according to population. The larger
the population of the county the great
er are key fees For instance, if
was getting 45 cents per day to feed
prisoners Lewis county should have
about So cents, and Lawrence county
| 80 cents My key fees are so much
greater than theirs that can afford to
, feed cheaper than they can
"If a bill like this can be passed
and will be constitutional, is all ask
and all that the sheriffs in the smaller
counties want. | believe that Cover,
nor Rye would veto similar bill as
those put up to Hooper and Patterson
as Governor Rye is thoroughly &C.
quainted with the fees that are paid
sheriffss, having been attorney gen
eral"

THE TURKEY.

First the turkey shows up great,
Is the houstwife's boast
Christmas finds him served in stat

When the final diner quits
Much is left, indeed.
Next we have some choice bits
Fricaseed,
One the next day to be sure
He still cuts a dash.
Turkey we may well endure
AS a hash.
But the finish Of the week
Sees dismal group
When we find his bones and beak
In the soup.
