Show lit WANT LARGER SALARIES. ( l We join with the Tribune in protesting" against the increase in Ig salaries of state and county offices, as proposed in bills now before In the Utah legislature. IT As the Tribune says, under tho old fee system men got rich in lij office, and now those, same offices are not self -sustaining and yet I j the incumbents are to be rewarded for failing to make their offices meet the expenses which they incur. Ih We do not believe there is any demajid from the people or the lij county officials of Weber county for an increase in county salaries, I'i and there should be no demand from any other part of the state. K The state officers are today well paid'and they should be con- J tent with their reward, which is more than that of a great majority lij tt of the well-paid men in private occupations in this state. |
