' During th years mentioned and prior to the first named date the compilation of tha law and the transcription of th Journals was done In accordance with the provision or concurrent -res olution passed at" the ooncluslon of the legislative assemblies. The fee paid for the work were in line with the additional emoluments received ty various state officials for the perform ance of certain duties. Under the flat salary law, however. when the maximum salary of each state official waa fixed, the perqulaltea pre viously enjoyed were annulled. Tha law of 10 clearly sets forth that nelthor the governor, the secretary of atate, the state treasurer nor the attorney gen eral shall receive any additional fee for th services performed by virtu of their respective offices. It pro vides: , . '. , - , .-. j -' .. ' "That several officer- of thla state hereinafter mentioned shall, during their contlnuano in offloe be entitled to re ceive the annual ' aalarte hereinafter respectively set forth, which salaries and each of them shall be payable quarterly, m th earn manner as are the salarler of other officers, ss full compensation for all services performed by virtue of their respective offices." Perquisite Out Off. The law then fixes the salary of th secretary of state at $4.00 per year, together with the aaiarles of other of ficials, and section 1 provides! "That salaries provided in this set shaU be in ilea of all salaries, fees. commissions and emoluments now re ceived or enjoyed by any of th said of ficers mentioned herein, and any and all fees and commissions of sny tlnd. nam or nature hereafter collected by any of said officers for any service per formed ty him by virtus of his office or collected by him by virtue of hla of rice, shall be paid Into the treasury of inia siaie,- eio. ejection or the act has more far reaching effect and pro vides: .

"Arreng-emaats Cbanred." So far as tha law is concerned th Davey resolution, providing for . the payment of additional fees for oompll lng the laws passed at the last session of the legislature, is in direct viola tion of the spirit and intant of the flat salary act, but Just bow much' the resolution will cost tha taxpayers of Oregon, will probably not become publis until 1I0 when the secretary .of stste's report wui tt mea.,, . Davey" desire to share in the add! tlonal emoluments created by the pes- age of his resolution was almost frus trated through an evident oversight in th secretary of state's offloe.

Condlt prepared bis office for the service and had se cured a stenographer . to aaalst -him when a, deputy from the secretary's office ' waited - upon hlra -with - the in formation that other arrangements had been mads and he would- not be re- aulred to Index the lawa.- - Bine that time the former speaker ef - the house of representatives has been busily engaged on the task t lit per day. .
