county officers will receive salaries

will not make a deal of differ-
once to the officers affected, and as
to those who will assume the duties
of their offices for the first time when
the law goes into effect, it will make
no difference at all. The county
treasurer will feel the effect of the
change more than any other officer,
perhaps, for his salary will be from
to less than the
in fees which that officer now
receives. The law making the
change from the system to the
