COUNTY COURTS CAPERS
TAKE AN
rum
- Ja
Which Promise to Put the County
to an Unnecessary Expense
for the Benefit of Two
of the Judges
At their regular meeting hat Monday
Ihi Jasper couuty comity court took an
unusual step- uno which promises to
Mike it uejssiry Jior tin court to 1
it s ssiuti most of the tim thereby
As is well known tlio presiding Jutljii
lnl tim tuo nssocnte judges am not in
harmony on a number of thing which
ronlo Mure thnt lody Heretofore it
1ms bten tlio custom for tlio presiding
ju lgo to endorse all lulls brought before
court but tlie resolutions passed Muu
dty aboli hthnt custom ami practically
takes tlio win h matter out of the pre
niilmsr ju lgos hands
It w s further ordorcd by t lit court
that no bridge building work on tim
JntrlnvajK or any construction work
ehll be accepted by tlio county nor
shall any urarrint Ksuo fur the pnyment
for any audi work uilil a mujjrityuf
tlio membjs of Jhe count onirt barn
inspected ami personally tiowed tlio
bridge building roid work or ctlnrcou
itruction work nticl havo np roved the
fcami Xor aliill any contract be enter
cd iuto by the county for the rwtion of
any bridge buildiDt or any construction
work of any kind on tltn public roaiU of
thu county or otherwise until a major
ity of the members of this court havo
personally tinned tlio placn whero tlio
work is to bo done and uniirovul tlo
stme
The only etcuRe for the later order
was to miko it possible for the con t to
be in hession as much as ios ibl thus I
enabling Jude Histlne who soeim to be
In iiolitics for tho money tin can Rittout
if it to draw Ills 11 vb dollars a ihy
JuiIko Hickmans protest against the
resolution was based on theclinrh that
they laid out work for tho count court
which nould keep it In nlmost continu
ous cession u useless proceoding und
one not routeniplated in the law which
protiUes for n county court Ho also
protested that the resolutions usurped
the duties of the county surteyor who
is ct officio road nnd bridge
crnndis paid as such Ills reports am
niFiclll It is piling up uieless vznse
for the county court to spend 015 a day
trying to usurp and dupicito tho coun
ty aurreyors business
It was nlso objected that tho resolu
tion provided for the couuty court as
suming the duties of tlio township ro ul
officers
JudKO Hickman also objected borlous
ly to the provisions which Ignorohls en
dorsement of bills He says ho has not
been holding up bills or keeping them
from his associates but his signature is
necessary to the warrants whioh havo to
lie issued to uy nil bills nnd ho takes
the more Interest in the bills themselves
