Increase In Fees.
The state legislature, session
of 1909 passed a justices' and con
staoles' fee bill, which being of a
iberal character, greatly increas
ed the emoluments of the ollices
1 if alder men, justices of the peace
and constables. The act, how
ever, did no' contain a repeal'ng
clause, and the effect was that
or: ly those officials who were elect
ed or appointed after the act
went into effjet profited by it.
County solicitors over the state
advised the boards of county
commissioners not to pay the in
creased fees, which in many
cases were doubled. The leglsla
tureof 1911 passed a repealer
act, which Governor John K.
Tener signed, and now all the
justices and constables in the
county can collect fees under the
act of 1909.
This means a great bonus to
,hese officials and a consequent
heavy dram upon the county
treasury. It also means that
there will be a larger array of
candidates for these offices, see-
ng a fat salary connected with it.
