There is a bill in the legislature pro viding for biennial elections. If it be I comes a law all present county officers will hold over another year. It is estimated the saving to counties the -ize of Sherman will be §500. Representative Smelser had the pleas ure of seeing his pet road bill pass its last gauntlet, the governor’s signature attacned and become a state law. Townships cm not vote a levy for road purposes of 10 mills, which will give an opportunity to build roads. Mr, Smelser has worked hard to have tin? law passed and deserves considerable credit for the effort. A tew w teks since Tiie North w est ern called attention to a legislative gratt of §3 per day given the speaker ot the house and president pro tem of the senate, as presiding officers of those houses. Claiming it to be uuconstitu tional. Marked copies of the pafer were sent to ^speaker Rouse. President Pro Tem Jennings, various senators, representatives, and to numerous em ploy e-* of both houses. Toe matter wa brought to the attention of .Mate Aud itor Searle. who a-ked Attorney Gen ; eral Brown for a decision. The attor-1 ney general promptly decided it to lie j unconstitutional ;«nd Auditor Searle j thereupon d dined to pay the warrants, and a saving t** the state each s-s-ion oi the legislature of an itt-m approxi mating §40o is thereby assured. Upon nearing of the attorney general's deci sion. W . H Harrison of Grand 1st tr d. who two years ago was president pro) tem of the senate, w rote the attorney general enclosing a draft for §2i9 re j ceived by him as presiding officer of the j senate at that time, thus making a sav ing to the ^ate of §oo0 But the funny side to Harrison’s letter is his expres sion of mortification that he wno h*s been such a strenuous opposer of all sorts of legislative gratis should himself be guilty. The humorous p -rt j lies in the fact that the w riter of this, at that time an employe of the senate, went to S ate Auditor Weston in per son and interposed objections to Harri son receiving hi» last twenty days’ pay as presiding officer pro tem over the sen t- as clearly unconstitutional. * hereat Mr. Harrison was very wrothy at such unbecoming conduct from one of the hireling employes and his lan guage was exceedingly vigorous. But I it is really nice of him to pay it back, j even at this late day. Now if ex-Spe k , er Willie G. Sears, and the other eleven ex-speakers and ex-presidents of the legislatures for the past twelve years c*n be persuaded to follow the excellent example of ex-President Pro Tem Ha - rison the d*>xologv may be sung, the subject dismissed and the state l>e rich er bv some §2400 additional to ihe con science fund.
