Most Important Officer.
The Southerner quotes
Mr. W. S. Clark, chairman of the
B -aid of Commissioners of Edge-
as advocating making
chairman of the a salaried
officer. Mr. Clark has no selfish
purpose in making the suggestion,
tor he says that under no
stances would lie take the position.
The position of chairman of the
Board of County Commissioners is
the most important office in any
county, is the poorest paid of
any public officer. He ought to
give most of his time to
and varied duties and be paid
a sufficient sum to compensate him
for the work, Mr. Clark and the
Southerner are right in
placing the proper estimate upon
this important
