Albany Drug Co, There appears elsewhere- in this issue of The Herald official publica tion giving notice of local legislation for the purpose of amending the act creating the City Court of Albany, and the acts amendatory thereof. The act creating the C-Ity Court of Albany was approved lecember 16, 1887, and separate amendments were approved December 20, 1898, and Aug ust 5, 1904. One of these acts had the effect of changing the office of so licitor from a salary to a fee basis. The last grand jury strongly recom mended that certain charges be made in the existing law under which the city court operates. In compliance with this recommendation, and after conference with the county commis sioners, Hon. James T. Mann, Dough erty county’s Immediate representa tive in the general assembly, has pre pared a bill, of which the caption is published today. The bill has been submitted to the county commission ers, by whom It has been approved. One of the most Important changes which the amendment of the City Court act will produce will be to make the judgeship and sollcltorship of the court elective Instead of appointive offices. Under the law as It exists, the appointive power rests with the governor, but with the passage of Rep resentative Mann’s bill both judge and solicitor will become elective officers. Another Important change em bodied in the bill will be to make the solicitor a salaried officer. This will be “changing hack again,’’ for the so licitor was originally a salaried offi cer. The office was changed to one receiving fees only two years ago, but the salary plan appears to be most popular with the public. It Is stated In the headnotes of Representative Mann’s bill, however, that the salaries of the court officers are to be in creased, though the figures are not given. The bill will, further, change the age qualification of the judge of the City Court. There are also proposed several changes of practice, to bring about conformity with superior court practice. We quote the language of the headnotes of toe bill: "To charge the practice of said court to make it conform with that of the Superior Court, and not re quire parties to.mtke a demand for a jury at the first term, as provided In Section 15, of the original act creat ing said City Court; to provide for a panel of 24 jurors In said court, al lowing the plaintiff and defendant, and state anf. defendant, six peremptory strikes each, and authorize the judge to Increase said panel, and for other purposes."

ENGLISH PRESS STILL ROASTING American Packing Houses and Their Filthy Methods. London, June 22.—The English press continues to comment In a spirited manner on the packing-house revela tions in Chicago and other American cities. A leading journal, in its latest Issue, says: “The whole story, in fact, of the Chi cago meat packing Industry Is a chron icle of carrion and worse things sent out for human food. It is well to re member that of thlB sort of stuff Great Britain, last year imported an amount valued at some £2,600,'000. Whether after these revelations we shall db trade to the same amount remains to be seen. If tfe do, then we are a stronger stomached people .than is gen erally credited.” ■it Max Cassel & Sister. . r ) . . ,^iiiiiSaa
