The Flat Salary Law
Ueprcsontatlvo Kny, of Marion, hns
introduced n bill to placo state officers
upon n flat salary. Tho bill allows:
To tho governor, $5000,
To tin tccrotary of stnte, fSOOO.
To tho Btato treasurer, $5000,
To the htlornoygcnnral, $15000.
To the chief justice, $4500.
To each two associate Juticep, $ 1000.
It is known also that a bill is to ho of
fered soon natninga salary tot (he super
intendent of public schools, nnd thero
has been presented by Senator Mulkoy a
constitutional amendment placing the
state printer upon a fint stlnry.
Figures havo been complltd showing
the expento of operating undor tho ex
isting system of paying minimum sal
aries named in the constitution, plus
fees and emoluments for rcrvlco upon
tho various boards that bavo been creat
ed by legislative enactment. These fig
ures indicate that tho several state ofllcea
havo cost:
For governor, salaries, $ 4,250
Annual npproyiationr, eyrccutivo
department 0,050
For superintendent of public
schools, salaries 2,500
Annunl appropriations 5,327
For Btato treasurer, salaries 5 312
Appropriations for clerkp. 2,000
For secretary of stnto, salaries 12,850
Fees, estimated per year from re
cords. 14,043
Appropriation (or clerical service 8,034
Fees turned over to treasurer 4,135
For stato printer, 1893-1899 53,104
For state printing, 1001-11)02 72,200
In these items appear many that must
bo allowed ander tho flat salary law,
such as clerk hire private secretary of
the governor and others. It is alleged,
howovor, that a saving or $50,000 can bo
offectcd by tho adoption of salaries for
all state officials over present expense.
NEVER GATCH'lIP
Tho business men who fail to
nppreclnte ndrertJelng arc likely
to find themselves eo far behind
tho times that they .will never
catch up.
It U atirari better to ndrer
