STATEMENT EEQM MR. HALL.
(Mr. Editor: With ydur permission
I will break my self emposed silence
of keeping out of . the news papers,
to make a brief statement us to what '
my altitude is on a few of the great
and leading questions that is agltat- "ing
and effecting the destinies of our
people .in this county and state. 1
The timet and conditions loudly
call for retrenchment from the highest
to the lowest. And we should be- j
gin by., eliminating all ' unnecessary I
office folders, "Lame Ducks etc." and
reducing the salaries of many of "our
state officers.
Our county o file eft should be on a '
Salary so all of us may know
, what each one being paid. The sal- 1
ary should be commensurate with the 11
dignity, duties, and responsibilities '
of tbe^ofRce, but not enough to make '
them fat while we are on our back 1
hollowing for mercy. fl
It is costing' tho tax payers of this 1
county a considerable sum of money j'
to infortc the prohibition law, the law >
should bO" change^C? that those who,'
Snake up their mind to engage' in the!s
unlawful traffic of liquor and thereby:1
corrupting the morals of our people
should bear largely the costs of the
etministration cf.. this branch of/thel
law. and tllat 'in all cases botlv' civil. '
arid crimipal there shadld be a suf- ^
ffcient sum-charged in thp. bill of f
costs to'talce care of'tH? jury crista and '
the costs of a stenograhher when one , 1
Is used, in short. tlJise that breakj
the law should hear the" ftists of its
administration, and not .tsfx the peo- 1
pie fcr itl This is the case in most of 4
the counties of tlfe state. ii
The Solicitor takes from our cOun;. 1
ty a large sum of money each year..'.'
All Soli'oitors should be 'on a salary ^
and paid by the state, and the vfees a
.nrW paid fnem should be. paid into T
till public treasury of the county, j t
The people of this county know my t
feeling with respect to land values. I o
made the fight, to have the value re-If
dueed. last year, almost single hand-, v
ed and alone. You know wlJat tigp-ji
pened, because of a local statute lim- 1;

vtlce would result -in* the empair- s
mer.t the county's credit, this stA- 3
tute has'or can- be amended _so as to 1
removfe that cbstiele. As "to the nec- 1
csssry machinery: of igettipg a fair c
