into effect on January l, 1895 and
the officials for these posts will be
nominated at the August 1884 pri-
marieS.
Another thing to be noted is that
the judges of the superior court
are not included in the county
government act as it now stands.
The reason for this is that these
judges are paid by the state and
county, jointly. The state has re-
duced its part of this payment to
$500 year, originally $4,000. In
this county the judges received
the $500 difference in salary from
the county. This brought the Or
iginal mark to $780, The county
grand jury now proposes to reduce
this $500 to $1,000, but the super
visors took no action in the mat
ter.
