sitions iu the county is that of com

missioner. The county commission

er gets any quantity of fault-finding and blame, with but; little salary

and recognition for his services how

ever valuable they may he to the

county or to the people at large.

Two of the most pains-taking and earnest of the officers of this class that Monroe county has ever had are W. M. A. Kirby and John Harrell. We don't knowthat these gentlemen will be candidates for reelection, but if they are they should be promptly nominated. The commissioners get a great amount of blame for acts over which they have ho control whatever. For illustration, the expeuses of courts

are allowed by the Judge of circuit court, and the commissioners have no voice in the transaction: the

Chambers trial, the trial ot Wm. Welch and the Allen case, cost

Mout-oe county away np in the

thousands, and under the law these amounts are allowed by the Judge before whom the cases are tried;

commissioners' court, the commis

with their allowance or auditing! the
