The Disputed Fee Bills.

We will publish next week, an
other communication from Colonel
Hunter, relative to the right OF
Sheriff's and Clerks of Court, eharg-
ing Parishes with fees in criminal
cases. We we're promised an argu-
ment on the other side also, which
we wonld have been glad to receive
and insert as q matter of courtesy,
though in our official capacity we
have determined not to sign any
warrant for such bills, until their
legality has been jndicially decided
upon, and included in this decision,
were the Sheriff7s and Clerks bills
passed by the majority of the finance
committee, at the last session ofthe
Police Jury, for which no warrants
have yet been issued. We must say,
however, in justice to the claimants
Of these fees, that if they have no
other law in their favor, they at
least have the law of custom, as we
notice that.every. Police jury in the
State whose proceedings we have
seen, have invariably allowed bills
of precisely the same character
General custom, however, is no ex
cuse for illegality or error, and as
our attention was called to the sub
lect as President of the Police Jury
of this Parish, I'VE could not act
otherwise than as We have done
uniufuenced by any personal feeling
or interest in the matter.
