—lt is now said that the now fee bill for
judges and inspuctors of elections does not
go into effect until next year, henco those
who were elected last February will receive
tho old rates o''pay. The Constitution of
the State provides that tho salary or emol
uments ot public officials shall not be in
creased or diminished during their term of
cilice. The present election officers were
choi-en before the new law was passed, so
they cauuot claim the new rate. This rule
will not apply to clerks, however, because
thoy are appointed ou election day—«inoo
tho new law passed. Nor will it apply to
judges or inspectors appointed to fill va
cancies, we think, for the same reason.
