FRIDAY, JUNE 28,1895. Winter racing at Roby has been done up by the supreme court. ~ And the people still continue to venture the assertion that the old jail should be removed from the public square. It is now definitely known what .the s$l$ries of county officers should be under the act6 of 1891 and 1893. The boys will not work for “board and keep.” Sound money to the gold bugs is as pretty as protection for the republicans. Give us honest money and the policy the greatest good for the greatest number. The republican journals that have harped so much about the democratic fee and salary law can now lay low. The supreme court hauded down a decision last Saturday holdiug that the law was good. Re who would deprive one 6orl of coin of its legal tender quality and leave it only with the other where jwo kinds had been used before from time immemorial fromtlie very origin of the credit system, is guilty ot gross injustice.”—David Turpie. The Republican league of the United States iu convention assembled at Cleveland, Ohio, last week, and after a big meeting straddled the leadiug question of the day. The meeting adjourned without doing ahything. That is^geuerally the case. The board oT commissioners of Wabash county have been arrested on grand jury warrants. There are nineteen indictments against the three commissioners alledging extortiou, making illegal allowances, perjury And presenting false claims. All are Republicans.

Through his grdat generosity the edttor of the Press will donate the use of his old county jail, to hold the next national convention in. How generous, and how thankful the national democracy must be to the editor for his extreme kindness. Why not sub-let it te the “Big 4” managers of the republican party? Our “alter harvest” subscribers will take notice t(iat the time is drawing near for a settlement of subscription accounts. We have sent out notices upou several occasions, some of you have answered the call and pome to the front and settled back does, but there are others who have not done so. We need the money and must haye it to do business with. Give this your attentiou immediately. If you do not know the amount due drop us a postal and we will let you know by return mail. The Press of last week 6ays that $10,000 in bonds have been redeemed ^uriug the past year. That's probably correct. The county issued the bonds aud they were made payable on certain deleft. To pay these bonds a tax levy of 15 cents on the $100, is raised from the tax-payers. There is no reason why they should not be paid as thev become due as the people pay their money for that purpose. No, credit is due anv political party for the payment ol the bonds, but to ^te tax-payers belong the credit.

It it a noticeable fact that the greatest reductions in the tarift schedule, was on iron and wool. These are the industries that the republican campaign orators and the republican press said would be ruiued. Yet, the wages of laborers in these same industries have been raised more thau In any other. And t he county officers continue to kick and want to know what they are going to get for.tbeir services since the lsw^has been repealed regulating salaries. They also want to know what they sure going to get under the recent law passed by the republican legislature.—Democrat. The county officers are taking the matter philosophically enough. They are not worrying; whatever the law may be the salary will probably afford them a living while in the discharge of their duties.—Press. The supreme court has now decided the que&tiou as to the old law, and those officers who nave overdrawn the salary limit will now have the opportunity to refund.

Fee and Salitry Decision. The supreme court decided the case involving the compensation of county treasurers last Saturday says the Indiauapolis News. Suit was brought by the state against the treasurer of Vigo county and his bondsmen because ot his failure to pay over certain moneys, which he claimed he was entitled to receive under the act of 1879. A demurrer was filed, which was overruled. The opinion by Judge Jordon to* day says: “It must be remembered that the act of 1891 was not held to be invalid a« an entirely, but only as to a part of its salary provisions. The act of 1893 does not attempt or protess to ameud the entire act of 1891, and only applies to certain provisions in which section 93 was deficient. Being constitutional, then, so far as it concerned the salaries of the clerk and sheriff, it was subject to amendment iu like manner as sections of other statutes/’ The court further says oh this subject: “A statute amending a former act operates as to matters thereafter occuriug preoisley as if the amendatory act had been added to the original act at the time of itsr adoption, and the two acts must be construed together and as one statute/’ After citing various authorities on this point the court says that the constitutional questiou m the Boice case, iu which the law was held to be unconstitutional, grew solely out of the omission to fix the salary of the treasurer of Shelby county, but adhered to the rules laid down in the case of Henderson against Stout that the legislature could iu the first instance have embraced tvithiu said section and provided tor the compensation of the treasurer, auditor and recorder of that county. Having the power in the first iuslance, it mu6t be admitted that the legislature can exercise this power by an amendatory act adopted in conformity with the constitution.

The court says: “We are constrained to hold that the act of 1893, amending section 93 of the statute of 1891, served the same purpose and had the same effect after going into force May 18,1893, as though it had been made part of the original law. Since that time the law has applied to all the treasurers, auditors and recorders in the state, and these provisions would operate to control the compensation ol such officers as do not come within the exception of section 136. Hence all laws and parts of laws in conflict, including the act of 1879, which are in conflict with the amended law of 1891, are repealed so far as the conflict exists. In reaching thtjj conclusion that the amended act Of 1891 is constitutional, the court modifies the opiDion rendered m the Boice case, which it says was rendered “without due. cousideratidu.” Judge McCabe and Hackney dissent from the opiniou. Judge Hackney says he dissents for the reasons stated in the case vs. Boice (the original fee and salary case) and for the reason stated in Clare vs. the state, 68th Iud., p. 17, that: “It is settled by the decisions of this court that an act to ^ameud a law, which has beeir repealed, or is iuvalid for any cause, is also an invalid and void law.” The Judge says that he does not believe that two distinct and independent provisions by two legislatures may be brought together to constitute a valid enactment. «■' Judge McCabe, who disseuts with Judge Hackney, did not write an opinion. You and all your friends are kind* ty invited to 6end into this pffice, or to bring it yourself auy item of news of which you may happen to know.
