GEAHGEES VS. JUDICIAL SALARIES. Tf.krk Haute, Ind., April 11.—The judges of the two courts herejwore subjected to a novel examination to-day. The new law provided for an increase of judges' salaries to not more than ¥4,000 by the county commissioners on petition signed by not loss than twenty freeholders. This petition was presented nearly a month ago, but the farmers' organizations asked time to prepare a remonstrance. Today several lawyers testified to the outrage of paying the judges nj more than thay get. The judges themselves went on the stand and the farmers cross-examined them a? to their hours of labor and the remuneration compared with other occupations. At times tbe friendly lawvors interposed objections to the questions to protect the witnesses. When the farmers proposed to get on the witness stand the lawyers objected on the ground tdat thoy were not competent witnesses.
The days for paying enormous salaries for services of judges of courts, county officers, or for any other public service, should be numbered among the things that were but are now not. They have no more right to bo paid high prices for their services than those of any other profession or branch of business. The fact that they labor for the public does not entitle them to exorbitant pay no more than it does to the physician or railroad engineer. The fact that they receive them is not an indication that it is always the correct thing to do. Take the instance cited above at Terre Haute Here are judges urging that their salaries already $3,000 per year be increased another $1,000, simply because the law says under certain circumstances it may be done. Measured by the labor of other men in other lines of business it is questionable if they barn or deserve anything near the amount they are receiving. And some of the brother professionals had the cheek to Bay that it was an "outrage" tr oppose further increase of salary. Yes, and it is an "outrage" that millions of poor laboring men with families are paid but $1.25 and $1.50 per day in this country while the "law" allows the judge from eight to ten times that amount. What reason or justice in
thiB
great discrepancy in
prices? As an apparent excuse for paying judges of courts from $2,500 up to $3,000 and $4,000 per year it has been stated that they could earn that much or more in the practice. ,That is the purest balderdash. There in not one exjudge or judge in fifty, who before going on the bench earned mere than his salary before or since. Many of them never
did
earn that amount per year.
Take this county as an instance, and we challenge any man to 6how us the exjudge living or dead, who earned or is earning $2,500 per year out of
hiB
prac
tice in the Courts of this county. It
is
not done, rarely ever has been. Pay good salaries, but not exorbitant for for all public service should be the rule. Those inquiring "grangers" of Vigo county are correct in examining into the matter, and right in opposing anything looking toward extravagance in paying out money (or public services.
The original surveys for the location of theMonon railway seem to have been dono strictly with an oye for economy and to save work, but it was of the kind that while it 6aved at the spigot was lost at the bung hole. Wherever grading could be avoided it was done regardless of future needs, and instead of running the line in a straight direction the curved and crooked sides of a hill week selected, if it would sa\o a deep till. Tlie future results of this were many accidents which would not have been near as likely to happen if constructed on straight lines. The mile and a half of the road north of the depot in this city is an instance of surveying to avoid expense. That portion of the road is crook jd, and much of it winds around the hill north of the creek instead of being run in a straight line, aad that portion is said, since its construction, to have cost the company near a half million of dollars to pay for loss of life and property, and will continue to until a perfect straight track is mado.
ABOLISH THE SINECURES. The sinocurcs, or soft places held by government officiate, should bo as rapidly abolished as soon as they are discovered. Secretary Morton, of the interior department, the other day discovered that a brother of the late James G. Blaine was holding down a position in one of the departments, which position consisted simply in drawing a salary and making a trip to Europe once a year. Ha promptly abolished it and Blaine will have to draw his sustenance from some other source than the government. Radical leaders were always prompt in supplying cousins, sisters, and brothera, with positions under the government. Thare should be a prompt weeding out and all sinecures, whether held by republicans or democrats, and such promptly abolished. The government has entirely too many dead beats living off it now.
HO*. ISAAC P. GBAY.
ThiB gentleman leaves next week to enter into the discharge of his duties as U. S. Minister to Mexico. The position iB one of the best within the gift of the administration, being worth $17,500 per yeur. Mr. Gray is a good example of what sound sense added to quiet disposition will uchievo for many men in politics. He belongs to what Shanklin denominated as the 10 per cents—one tenth being opposed to Cleveland's nomination by the party in Indiana while nine-tenths were favorable to it, yet by his political shrewdness and moderation he secures one of the very highest positions from the administration, while Shanklin, one «f the loudest principals of the "90's" does not as yet seem to have anything for his labor in the political field. Gray by all odds is the shrewdest politician in the state. He seems to "know the lick it is done by" and just when to apply that "lick." Since joining the democracy in '72 no man has dealt the republican party more effective blows, and no man has seemed to be a more willing subject to their hatred, yet he has continued to triumph over them at almost every turn. Up to the campaign of 1884 none had been conducted more vigorously nor determinedly than that in Indiana. Gray was the democratic candidate for Governor and won by near 7,000 majority. His administration of State affairs was creditable, and in the new position which he soon leaves to assume he will, we believe, reflect honor upon his party and the nation. Ho can well afford to have his political enemies rail at him, ridicule his middle name "Pusey," make light his grammar, etc., for he is "on top," while they are down below gtashing their teeth at him, envious of what a level head will produce for its owner in politics as in most all other undertakings.
A PUFF FOE MOUNT.
Republicans are already looking around fof timber for the next campaign. The plan next time is probably to get a horny-handed farmer for the race for Governor, one of the "honest yeomanry," as they are termed. Jim Mount, of this county, who has always been aiming to get into office of some kind ever
Bince
he was a voter, is ac
cording to an Indianapolis correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, the coming man on the republican ticket for Governor. Here is what it says:
The democracy need not be surprised if it has James A. Mount, of Montgomery county, to defeat for Governor in the next gubernatorial race. It is already settled that the republicans will have a new deal, and that younger bleod will be brought to the front. For this reason a number are already sizing up Mount and scrutinizing his points. Mount is a Claude Matthews rapubticanized. Ho is a practical farmer, a live, progressive man, a ready debater and a well-informed all-around citizen. He has served with distinction in the State Senate, and he is no slouch of a mixer. While Mr. Mount was in the Senate he pleaded the rights of the farmer as notje other of his compatriots had the nerve to do, and the granger will recollect that he made a great fight to secure a redistribution of the school funds, so tbat the country districts might not be cut off with three or four months' annual schooling, while the cities rioted in nine and ten months. Mount came very near carrying his point, and it required a combination of all the city school superintendents, school professors and college men to beat him.
If Mount could make a similar race for Governor like unto his race for Congress against Brookshire, where in the seven counties of the district he was beaten by over 3,000 majority, the democracy can sincerely hope that he will be nominated.
There is an effort boing made to have the list of pensioners, with the amount of peneions, published in each congressional district in the country. There has been but little opposition to the scheme up to this time, and it is probable a move in that direction will be made at tlio next meeting of congress. Publishing such a list will be a great aid in the revision proposed. There are many persons drawing pensions who are uot entitled to a pension of any kind others are drawing entirely too much, having been erroneously rated, whilo many poor private is not receiving near enough.-
A dakino wheat speculator of Chicago, Pardridgo by name, during one time last year made $1,000,000 on wheat. Like all hogs ho was not satisfied, but ha3 kept up in the business of dealing in margins ever since. Last week some of the sharpers with whom ho runs got after him on a wheat speculation and before lettiug go he had lost ST750,000. No sympathy is needed for such men.
Judge Wm. Cochran, of Minnesota, was last week appointed Commissioner of Pensions by President Cleveland. He is highly commended, but the place is a difficult one to fill, and many loud in their praise of him now will justly as readily curse him in six months. About every man filling the place has been abused worse than a pickpocket before he let go of it.
Gkn. Lew Wallace has already nominated ex-President Harrison for President on the republican ticket in 1896. As Harrison is about all that is left of tho party of "putrid reminisence" there will be no harm done in Wallace's nomination. It affords him recroation whil6 not engagod in his literary labors.
POOR LAW MAKERS.
Indiana was not alone last winter in the poor quality and duless character of her legislators, it would appear. The same complaint iB heard from Kansas, Michigan and one or two other states. It would seem that in most cases not enough attention is paid to the quality and material necessary to constitute a good law matter. It is generally some party schemer, some perpetual office seeker, some individual with a hobby or single idea that is chosen to
go
to tha
capital of the state and assist in passing laws for the government of the people. He is generally the uiau that helped call the crowd together at some convention, or carried his precinct, it may be the year before for the ticket, and therefore must be sent to the legislature as a reward for his work, although he may be devoid of any requisite for a legislator. Too often men have boen chosen for this place on just such grounds. A good legislator should bo a man of enlarged views and free as possible from party bias and prejudice. Ae is in his official capacity to act for the people, not for the party, as his work effects all, not a few. There should be lesB attention hereafter given to paying off party debts by nomination of this or that man for legislator, and more attention given to the qualification or fitness of the applicant. If this is done we wilt have a better class of legislators, Ices time wasted in the General Assembly, more sensible laws enacted and much frivlity and nonsense abolished. Tho complaint is that our State legislature is a useless organization, that mo&ey and time is squandered in doijg nothing for the people. The fault to a great extent is with the people. They continue from year to year to give less attention to the matter and allow too much dictation by party schemers. IT' they want good laws enacted they must select good, intelligent, honest men to represent them.
At the municipal elections in Kansas women are allowed to vote and thousands of them exercised the right. A woman was candidate for Mayor-esB in Kansas City, and although qualified and competent for the position received loss than 100 voteB out of the 3,000 or more cast by women. The eex seems to have all the vindictiveness of the men when an election is at hand.
Hon. J. T. Johnston has been chosen as department commander of the G. A. R, of Indiana for the ensuing year. Cheadle, of Frankfort, held the place last year. By some means a republican politician is most generally selected for this position, although the G. A. R., it is said, knows no politics.
