THIS is THE BIRTHDAY OF
Joseph Addison,

MAY /. 1874

Joseph Addison. whose fame In Eng
lish literature rests almost entirely up
on his essays for the Spectator began
his real literary career rather late in
life, and did his only Nimportant work
in period Of .ess than two years.
That his sole and sufficient claim
to immortality should ne the Specta-
tor papers would doubtless have
amazed Addisoa himself. He began his
career while at college by writing
poems in Latin. one of which was so
notable that he received pension Of
about $1,000 a year to liEe upon while
he travelled and continued his develop
ment. That ne never resolved but one
! years payment of the pension is Incl
dental.
Various political ups and downs
marked the first period OF his life, ex-
tending to his 3yth year BY this time
he had acquired some wealth, and de-
veloped thru his occasional writings.

but politics: on human characteristics,

tors and Clerks AHseted-law Too
Hastily Drawn.

Davenport, May THAT some
choice group of political jugglers
kicked over the basket and scrambled
the eggs just before the Iowa state
| legislature came to a close is evident
from the legal wage omlet which has
| just been brought to the notice of
county officers The bill reads as II IL
had been drawn up by Chief Crazy
Horse.
| The law effecting the salary of
deputies in the auditing and county
clerks Office is so badly bungled that
the deputy clerks will not be able to
determine whether they are heads or
| tails until the next legislature meets.
The law is said to have been all
! right on the night before its passage. A
part of the law is UNDERSTOOD to have
been hurriedly redrafted by the COM
| mittee on the morning Of the day
! that it was aeroplaned thru the legis-
| lature. And the redrafters of the mea-
sure seem TO have made a beautiful
| mess of it.
| The law as it now reads allows the
first deputy in the office of both the
auditor and the county clerk a salary
| equivalent to so per cent of his prirI-
| cipal and not to exceed $3.50 per year.
! The second deputy is also allowed 80
per cent of what his chief gets and
! not more than $500 The third
deputy is gets 30 per cent or one half
the salary that his principal gets.
Under this brilliant act. the third
deputy will draw larger salary than
the second deputy.
For instance: Auditor Joe Wagner
draws a salary of $1,000 under the
| new law. His first deputy will there
| fore be entitled 80 per cent of that
| amount or s1.l0O and not more than
$3.50 per, year. The second deputy
is to draw 80 per cent and mot more
| than $1,000 The third deputy gels 80
per cent of the principal salary which
means that the third deputy will draw
s1,,00 which is one-half of the audi.
tors present salary. The second
deputy can not draw more than s1,500.
So that the third deputy will draw
more than the second deputy. In other
words the minimum salary in the
auditors office for deputy auditors
will be $3.50: $500 and sl,700 in the
! order named for first, second and third
/, deputies.
The same law applies to the deputies
in the county CLERKS office.
IT was first supposed that the law
might hive slipped thru before the
bill Was passed increasing the county
chiefs or heads of the office But the
| result is the same under the old sal
aries. The law as it stands does not
work out excepting in offices where
the principals salary is 81 800 or less
but the new law applies only to coun-
ties having population of $4,000 or
more.
The bill as passed is as intelligent as
a milk shake that the waiter has
dropped on the floor
Otherl county salaries are not af-
| fected. 1t is case of the last shall be
hrst in the two county offices named.
