The governor ratling!, and the cause differs from SALARIES OF COUNTY OFFICIALS 'bluntly charged the chairman of the Laws for the regulation of the sal aries of county officials In this state are In it most uti: satisfactory condi tion. When a servant of a county thinks he Is underpaid lie rtiHhes to the legislature and attempts the en actment of a new law affecting his case only, Tho system Is all wrong. I nder It skillful manipulation, or the presence of friendly legislators. Home house senate ways anil means com mittees with playing politics ;iud de lnylng consideration of these bills.

On he other hand, to put the teacher under a life tenure of office, aa our own legislature proposes, must work to tho 111 of the educa tional system. Merit, and ability to rope with local conditions and to work results, should alone he tho test of tenure, and the local board of directors Is tho best Judgo of when a teacher should be retained or dropped from the roll.
