$1,000 IS LIMIT

But This Sum Is Independent of the
Amounts Paid to Deputies and As.
sistants the Court Of Appeals
Held on Friday.
A Frankfort dispatch says:


The section of the state constitution
limiting salaries of sheriffs and othel
county officials to a maximum of S.,
900 year from the fees collected /:
mandatory and does not require legis.
lation action to make it operative, the
Court of Appeals held Friday.
1t reversed judgment of the Fay
cite circuit court holding that Paul E
Ship did not have the right to sue J.
Walter Rodes and T. c. Bradley and
others for an accounting for fees they
collected during their terms in Office
in Fayette county in excess of $4,000.
Mr.. Ship in November, 1921, sued
Mr.. Rodes and Mr.. Bradley, both for
mer sheriffs. to recover fees in excess
of the expenses of their Office and
$1,000 a year salary.
The lower court held that Mr.. Ship
did not have the right to sue because
he had not made demand on the fis-
cal Court of the county that it bring
the suit.
The general rule is that a taxpayer
before he files suit must make a de-
mand on the fiscal court and that it
be refused, the court said. But in this
case it is to be presumed that the fis-
cal court had knowledge of the fact
that fees paid officials were in excess
Of the constitutional limitation and
that therefore they could not be ex-
pected to impeach their own actions
and Mr.. Ship did not need to make
the demand.
1.-THE sheriff is allowed ten per cent.
commission on the first $4,000 of taxes
collected for the state and county and
four per cent. on all over this sum to-
gether with fee for certain other serv-
ices" said the court. obviously his
right to retain these commissions and
fees as salary is subject to the agree
ment that he shall not receive over
$4,000 per annum as compensation for
his official services, Independent of a
corps Of legally authorized deputies
and assistants.

RIackwood Hits SO In
Corn Mash Campaign

Blytheville, Feb. 2. - Sheriff
Blackwood has captured the ninety
and ninth moonshine still since the
Inauguration of his corn crushing
campaign ON March 4, 1921. This
sheriff evidently selected the date OF
President Harding's Inauguration fol
the beginning OF his heavy artillery
attack on moonshine makers and
hopes to have an even hundred ruin

Blackwood states that he found

four miles southeast of Dell in the
midst of primeyal cane. Although
the drink dispensary was three miles
from main county road, still thir-
sty travellers to the cane cache had
done a better job at making q
hard road than Mississippi county
has been able to do after some years
of work and considerable taxation.
The sheriff, however, in his enthu-
siasm for road construction, did not

Method in His Promotion.

"Some weeks ago the senator
from New Hampshire (Mr. Moses

He maligned, criticised and abused
the agricultural bloc, and in the
course OF that speech referred to the
agricultural group as the 'Ken-Cap-
Khan of the United States Senate;

Although the country may ac-

the president and his advisers to

country may accept and interpret
that as the true motive which
prompted the president. The Junior

the Senate had confirmed Senator
Kenyon by a rising vote in open

in open session, but in this instance
precedent was established when
senator's were asked to stand up as
further mark of their approval Of
the nomination. After expressing
his appreciation of Senator Kenyon
