County
Commissioners
Refuse to Increase Salaries Of
Probate Court Employees

Judge Woodruff, on last Saturday
morning, presented to the county COM
missioners a list of the increases he
desired in the salaries OF the deputies
employed in his department as we'll as
those employed in the juvenile court
and almost precipitated a panic
thereby among the hoard. 1t was
thought for time that the. services
of physician would be required, as
several members looked as though
they were about to faint.
But they soon recovered and it was
easily to be seen that there was to be
Inothing doin'-as far as raising sal
aries was concerned. Why who ever
heard of raising wages several hurl-
dred dollars at one time? Not they.
Didn't it take them al summer to
make up their minds TO increase the
pay of the court house janitors 25
cents day? Think of it then, to in
crease anyone as much as four or five
hundred dollars year at one time.
Preposterous!
There are three members of the
board of county commissioners. Each
draws $2,007.84 per yesr. For what !?
goodness only knows, unless it is for
lounging around the court house three
or four days week and absorbing
the heat that the taxpayers pay for.
And yet they would deny the court
house employees living wage. If the
board members deserve the salaries
they draw, then the employees are en-
titled to three times the amount they
are paid.
The amount Judge Woodruff asked
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1919-12-05

for his deputies is not in the least ex-
cessive and should be allowed. About
the only mistake his honor made was
in the amount of increase he asked
for his stenographer. 1t will be no
ticed. that her salary is to receive
only a boost of about s1C0, making her
salary 5000 per year. 1t isn't enough,
it should be at least $1,000.
It is hinted that politics is cutting
little figure in the deal. Of course
large bodies move slowly and this is
a wonderful big proposition and It
takes little time to consider such
things, by hec. OF course after the
orders are issued to jump through the
hoop and then back again and to lay
down, rolf over and play dead, every
thing is likely to be adjusted satisfac-
tory all around. BY and by, so and so.

LINE UP WITH LABOR

New York.--Drug clerks have
abandoned their professional" organ
ization and affiliated with the trade
union movement.
The term professional" sounded
fine, but it failed to satisfy the land
lord or grocer. In announcing their
change, the clerks say:
eve realize that the only way to
secure anything in the way of wages
and conditions was by affliating with
the A. F. of L. and we have affiliated

The clerks are now on strike. 1t is
stated that 500 druggists have agreed
to the new scale--s50 a week and an
eight-hour day.

Gov. Howard r. Wood presided
over the senate during the sixteenth
general assembly will not be carried

Governor Wood asked permission OF
the senate. to present the gavel to
the state museum after it had been
awarded to him, according to custom,
in complimentary address made Sat
urday evening by Senator Richard Nc
Carten of Sargent county.
Following the presentation of the
gavel, the chair called upon various
members of tn esenate for express
sions. Senator Hyland paid tribute
to the younger members Of the body
for their aptitude in developing the
mature presence and dignity essential
to their position. He emphasized the
absence of PERSONAL iH-feeling. = Look

senate chamber would leave behind
greivous thoughts arising from hon,

clared his belief that every MEMBER
had acted as he thought for the, best
interests of his state. = /
Z Members Were Earnest.
Senator Murphy, one of the few old
timers who came back to this session
as member Of the minority said that
in his broad legislative experience he
had failed to find any body .rf men
more earnest more devoted to their
duty or whose endeavors approached
more nearly, their own concept of pub.
lie service to the state. Although con-
scientiously opposed to Alany of the
successful measures, he held no UNI

"A Earring Note.
At this moment there came as a
Earring note the resolutions condemn
ing the minority w:!ich had been pass
ed by the house. They were brought
in by Chief Clerk Totten. who began
their recital in high-pitched, orator
ical voice. His work was interrupted
by Senator Hyland, who asked that
the resolutions be sent to the desk
and read in regular form. This was
done, and Liederbacsl OF Dunn novel
that the senate concur. Cahill Of
Grant thought the senate should
"thresh them over" r-tsats
Hyland urged that the resolutions
be ignored. He referred to Townley's
recent malignant statement to the
effect that all members of the minor
ity were in the pay of big business
and that they were here for the sole
purpose of lootihg the state. He
called attention to- the fact that the
minority had not seen fit to dignity
these accusations by introducing res
olutions on the floor of either house.
Wexford, leagier, declared he did
not believe in the ACCUSATIONS made
in the house resolutions, that he had
faith in the men attacked and that he
was opposed to arousing feelings Of
bitterness. 49, 4i '.,ss r.,
