Echoes Frew the Legislature
Council Bill No. 1, the fee and
salary bill, has been signed, and is
no* a law. The reduction of county
expenditure will be In the large
couuties, most sweeping. Some of
1 s reductions arc in the following:
Heretofore the district clerks luvi
retained all civil fees and in Okhiho
11111 and Logan counties, have collected
more than Hi, 0(10 per annum for
criminal foes. Now tho clerks are
obliged to turn over to the county,
all civil fees in excess of 1500 per
annum, and the county commissioners
are forbidden to pay more that f!10U
a year to district clerks for criminal
fees. Under this provision it may be
that nothing will be gained by the
civil fee provision, but there is no
way of evading tho provision con-
cerning criminal fees.
Tho limit salary for the sheriff in
countics having a population in ex-
cess of 15,000 is fixed at $3,000,
His deputies must be paid 60 per
cent of all fees made by them. The
gentlemen who have been most inter-
ested in tho enactment of tbe law,
say that tho county is not held liable
for any fees incurred by tho sheriff
and the piobato judge in any case,
civil or criminal. In conference the
house receded from its amendment
to the soction providing that when
the cost9 can not be collected from
the defendant, the county shall be
liable for only half the sum, and that
provision is now tho law, with the
sheriff and probate judge stricken
out. Those who have examined the
bill carefully say that there is now
no provision that hollis the county
liable for any fees earned by the
probate judge or sheriff, If that be
true, the provision is certainly too
sweeping. The provision from which
the names sheriff and probate judge
were stricken by tho confcrence com-
mittees as follows: "In all cases
when the fees prescribed in this act,
in criminal cases, except misde-
meanors, for the constables aud jus-
tices of the peace are not paid by
tho defendant or prosecuting witness,
one-half of the amount of fees al-
lowed by law shall bo paid by the
county: Provided, that in no case
shall the county pay any of the fees
to any of the above named officers
for servicos rendered in any case
where the offense charged is less
than a felony. In no case shall the
county bo liable for the fees on mile-
age of any witness in auy case or
proceeding." The court is, how-
ever, empowered to pay the actual
necessary expense-, oi witnesses sub-
poenaed by the territory, upon the
oath of the witness that lie is finan-
cially unable to pay his own board
and cost of coming to and returning
from the placc of holding court.
This allowance, however, can not be
made until an examination of the
witness has been made touching hie
financial condition.
JurorB will receive dollar and
lifty cents a day and no grand juror
can bo paid more than $12 for any
term of court.
Jt is safo to predict a wonderful
fa'liug off in misdemeanor cases, and
a consequent lessening of neighbor-
hood trouble. The prosecuting wit-
nesses must give a good bond for the
payment of costs, unless the county
attorney, after due investigation
sli !l proceed to bring action. The
constable and justices of the peace
are only paid half when the county
foots the bills, and their are further
limited to $300 as tho maximum
amount either can draw from the
county in any one year.
A'l.ithor bill that became a law
cuts down the expense of assessing
more than one half. It provides
that fi r the first 200 lists the assessor
shall receieve $40, and for each
additional 100 lists, $15.
TI e counties are pretty thorough-
ly protected now, and tho court ex-
pense will hereafter be a small charge
to tli county.
The governor did not sign the bill
reconfi rring upon probate courts tbe
antb irity to hear aud determine di
vorce eases. The authority of the
legislature to enact such a law was
questioned by some of the legislator-;
and others believed that no new
enactment was necessary.
The legislalute did good work in
spite of the numerous obstacles
thrown in the way at the closing of
tho Bes-iion. There was very strong
indications of boodle toward the close
of the session, but it can not be said
that sny suspicious looking measure
becau e a law, unless perhaps the oil
Insp. . 1,11 law is one. And that is a
law in a gcod many states. It will
give f • offices to two or three men,
and unbss Ihey are the best men in
the territory, the Inspection will
amount to nothing. Had pnrty
lines been more closely drawn,vicious
legislation would certainly have slip-
ped through. Tho legislation was
very largely imbued with tho pre-
vailing disregard for party lines.
Democrats, republicans and popu-
lists worked together frequently as
as one man and the strangest at-
tachments sprang up between lead-
ing republicans and loading demo-
crats and populists. All go home
with kindness in their hearts toward
political adversaries, and with minds
considerably broadened by the con-
tract. Ti e air aliout a legislature is
generally reighted with the partisan-
ism of the party in control. All of
the 0 erks are ultra, tho men scat
to lobby. i<re those whose acquain-
tance s with the politician of '.he
cont-olbng party,generally someone
who bus performed iomi. difficult
politic ,1 function, it may bo evaded
the law, t i elect his man, but it can
noi In- siid fhat this ultra spirit pre
vailed at tuts legislature. Nobody
■eouiid to care muoh tor party, and
members of all parties wore surpris-
ingly free to criticise the acts of the
memliers of their own political faith.
The Oklahoma legislature did not
differ from other legislatures; but tbe
independence that lias I teen marked
in the voting in tho last two or three
eleetiona has taken fast hold of all
parties. The ward politician is likely
any morniug now, to wako up and
find his party vanished and his heel
era scattered to the four winds. There
is no longer a fear of hiB vengeance
nor au administration of his unscru-
pulous methods. The endorsement
and backing of party heelers is
worthless to any ono in any party.
This party emancipation is just
what this country needs. Let men
stand upon their merits, and not up-
on their party fealty. Spot a bad
man anywhere,in any political party,
and no trouble will ariso over the dis-
honesty of officials,

The police at the headquarters
this morning all mentioned the utter
absense of colored men on the
street last night. The absense-was
caused by a supersition prevalent
among the negroes that John Mil-
ligan would come to life last night
and walk the streets and although
Mllligan had some acquaintances
among the colored] population of the
city, none of them seemed t:> have a
desire to meet him. As an old darkey
remarked to a crowd of young bucks
wno were talking yesterday afternoon
in a bravado manner about the exe-
cution, "Dat's alright now, but wait
till night comes and Milligan 'II make
all you niggi-rs hunt your hole." And
the old man told the tiuth.

Washington, March 11.—(Special.)
The attorney general was shown to-
day a copy of a paper containing the
proceedings of the Oklahoma legisla-
ture in which ltappeared that Messrs.
Pitzei-, Baker, Prouty and Orner,
members of the council, arose In
council session and declared that a
dispatch from Washington In the
Kansas City Journal of the 6th inst,,
stating they bad signed a message
asking that Justicc Scott be retained
in office, was untrue. It Is needless
to say that the attorney general was
surprised over the matter, because a
message Is on file in Ills department
bearing out the statement made In
the Journal and the attorney general
wondered bow such a tblng could be
possible. It was decided that the
most charitable explanation to olfer
was that there 1b some forgery con-
nected with the matter. In tbe face
of the message on hand it is not
easily understood how gentlemen
prominent In the territory of Okla-
homa could have added their names
to It and then claim In open council
that it was nut t'ue.
But In this connection It will be of
Interest to examine tbe message
Itself. Ii reads as follows: "We,the
undersigned, earnestly request you to
withdmw your opposition to Justice
Scott aud enter your protest against
bis removal and do all you can for bis
retention on the bench. John II.
Pltzer, president of the council, H.D.
