County Clerks in Session.
The call for a meeting of the
county clerks of the state drew about
thirty-five members of the elect to
gether yesterday to discuss matters
in connection w ilh their offices.
The meeting organized ut Hp m. '
with (I. M. Taggnrt of Otoe county,!
in the chair, ami Jc.lin Maher of
Dawes as secretary.
F. J. Sackett, of Douglas was asked
by the chair to stats the object of
the meeting and said that it was a
wise move, he thought, to meet and
become acquainted with each other
thus establishing closer relations
that they might work in common
for legislation which their common
experience taught them was needed
not only for the county clerks but
for the public. He pointed out the
defects of the present luw regarding
fees, salaries and expenses of coun
ty clerks, showing that in many
counties, especially in those having
registerof deeds, the receipts were
not sufficient to meet their running
expenses. He didn't believe that
the people desired their clerks to
receive anything less than reason
able salaries, and certainly clerks
were entitled to know just how
much salary they may expect. The
speaker took occasion to criticise
the prevailing method of assess
ment, placing the value of the prop
erty of the state at about one-tenth
its real value, damaging the state
a great deal in its credit among
eastern capitalists. A number of
other defects in present laws were
pointed out.
A motion then prevailed favoring
a permanent organization and in
pursuance thereof the chair up
pointed this committee: Clerks K. I.
McCullom of Hutler, F.J. Sackett of
Douglas, Frank Dickson of Cass and
W. (j. Hradley of Nuckolls to pre
pare a constitution and by-laws
and a list of permanent officers to
submit when the clerks again as
sembled at 10:30 a. in. to-day.
