thp Editor, 50lerk of Qourt, lawyers,
etc. Where does the food, cloth
ing, etc., come in to minor@, or
phans or others of small estates,
say $75.00? Please explain how
much would orphans,"minors or
any one interested in suoh small
estates get, when the Editor, Sher- cat
Iff, Clerk and lawyers got so muoh
under the former law? Where is ph
the food, clothing andgother com thi
forts? Who gets them? Not oil
the heirs of that small estate. fa
But under the law passed by
the last General Assembly or
numbculls as you calls, there is
food for all, and not a few gets it
all. abr
I thought the intention of the foi
law was to protect the weak. Why sy
should wo maintain a law that
gives the shoriff, olerk, lawyer
and printer all of these small
estates all ever this State?
I have very much respeet for
the above named professions and 2
officers, but at the same time I
have sympathy for the orphans
and heirs (f small estates. I do
not think they should be robbed -
by legislation becauso they arc
small estates. I3 would to God N
that thero wore more of them in
this country. ,Tho people% would
bo better contentod, happier and
more social..
You say it cost as much to sot- S
tie up and partition out an estate
worth $5 as it does to settle up a
$5,000 estate. According to this
theory the county should tax every
body alike, for it takes as much
time and paper to write a return
for a man that returns $5 as one
that returns;$5,000, and the samlo
size receipts.
"We suppose the Legislature
wantedto have the honor of redue

whero they arolreduced at'-Sontinol
Why is the Editor of the Souti
nol kicking? Is not the fee bill a M
tax on estate that have to be set
tied up? The heirm of these small
estates can feel whore the tax is
lowered. Tho same power that
legislated tho fee bill in behalf of
those editors and ofileers saw fit to
legislate a little sympathy in bohalf
of the small 0eta-te, for it seOms
that it is the only way sympathy
Caln he got in some of those. It
