The house Thursday passed to third
reading hy an hyer.wheUnl*ig majority
(w<> bills to require all county officers
to keep itcniucd statements of all fee*
>Mi<l costs collected. These accounts ore
to be open in public inspection. Pu'Uire
to keep such aceouuts Ih to be put)lsh
able h.v a hue of not less than $o0 uor
more than $200 pi* imprisonment not less
than two months nor more than six
month* or both, in the discretion of Ihe
* ' ?
court.
The law has been ou the statute book*
since 1U11 but as a tyovision 'was then
ambled so that the- law was not applicable
to Newberry, Htuuter.l l<exlngton ? and
Hevkeley counties, the general law vCuh
rendered unconstitutional and thus a
dead letter on the statute books;-~< hie
of the bills |h t?? amend Meet ion 5.H7,
Volume II, Criminal Code, 1012, so as
to eut unt this provision, and the other
provides for tl^e punishment for viola
tion. Cq
The bills caused warm debate 6u the
floor of the house. Opposition to 'the
measure wan voiced by Mr. Owens of
the Marlboro delegation aud Mr. Hughes
of Marion. Mr. Owerts contended that
those who wanted to know now hoV
much salary county officers were receiv
ing might gain this iuformatiou by a
close scrutiny of all the papers handled
by these officers. Those inj favor qf the
measure argued tlu\t the average person
did not have the time or the inclina
tion to examine hll the papers and books
of any office to uncertain just the amount
of salary any county officer might re
ceive. ^
Mr. Crews of Itichlund County offer
ed an amendment to* exclude Richland
f is on Hie provisions of the.net, but the
bouse was in ho mood to tamper with
the constitutionality of the measure which
was being' passed on yesterday. The
two measures read : ?
