they should be place beyond the
range of the gamble and the
chance that always enter* Into the
fee system of payment. It Is ex

that city la “in line with the gen
eral movement to put all officers
on s salary basis and do away
with the fee system." The people
in ell parts of the country are in
deed coming to think of pay for
their officers on the fair and hon
est basis upon which those em
ployed by business in practically
all other lines are compensated.
So the fee system is being steadily
relegated.
This was suggested for the purpose
of doing away with any fees and i

are usually fixed with an estimate of
the fees In two cases of the three, bul
this plan Is not considered satisfactory,
and as the work has greatly Increased

This does not refer in any way to
county offices and has nothing
with them either one way or another.
