The people of Indiana are indebted to Demooratio legislatures for BALLOT, "I SCHOOL BOOK, | -p, Reform REVENUE, | The Indianapolis Journal, republican state organ, says of the fee and salary bill: “It has the merit of patting all county officers on fixed salaries, graded according to population, and doing away with offi cial fees and emoluments. The compensation of every officer will be fixed by law, and all fees in excess of the compensation so fixed will go into the t-easnry. The recognition and establishment of this principle is a good starting point for future reform." When the Indianapolis Jonrnal says as much as this in favor of a law passed by a legislature overwhelmingly democratic in both branches, certainly the Renssela er Republican can afford to be equally honest, and as freely tell the truth.
