NO MORE GRAFTS FOR CLERKS OF POLICE COURTS Charter Makes That Business Bad. ! | This year’s crop of candidates for Police | Court clerkships Is neither as large nor as varied as it has been iIn years past. Those who are said to be in line for these positions are for the most part either law students or young men of good connec- tions who are willing to work for nothing more than their salaries and the benefit they will derive along their chosen lines. The reason for it evidently lies in the fact that the charter puts the position ouc of | the reach of the professional grafter by relieving the Police Court Clerk of all re- sponsibility and shouldering it upon the County Clerk. Heretofore the court clerks | have had no other responsibility than their own. They handled all cash ball demanded by their respective courts; they | gave receipts for it, deposited it in the treasury in their own names and gave it to whomever again presented the re- pt, and in connection with their duties | along this line most of the scandals with | which they have been connected have | originated. Under the new order of things the County Clerk is clerk of the Police Court_as well as of the Superior Court, and all cash bail demanded will go into his hands by order of the court. As County Clerk Deane handles bail money now, there is not one chance in a hundred of any acquisit ourt clerk getting out of office with any of it lining his pockets. Instead of returning bail money upon presentation of the receipt, Deane de- mands that the claimant be represented by an attorney, who shall make the de- mand. Then upon a second order of court the attorney is given an order upon the Treasurer and permitted to collect for his client. The programme announced in The Call | yesterday morning suffered a slight change at the hands of Sheriff Lackmann, who announced yesterday that the ap- solntment of Chris Newman as his chief Pookkeeper was by no means a certainty. | For that place he Is considering not only Newman, but Sig Simon, the present | cashier in the office; Billie Blattner and Pat Walsh. Simon at the present time is | considered the favorite and is being | strongly played by the push. E. F. Moran denies that he will accept the posi- of_chief deputy offered him by sessor Dodge. The statement that the Board of Health | will make a legal fight to retain its office | is emphatically denled by every member | of that body. They are content to accept the provisions of the charter as passed upon by the Supreme Court and claim | that the administration will find no | warmer supporters of the new scheme of | government than they. —_———— ELECTION RECOUNT.
