\ QUESTION OF sHERIFF'S
i FEES. n 8.5

A telegram from Fergus Falls says:
The case Of Sheriff Brandenburg
against Otter Tail county has taken q
new and interesting turn. Some,
weeks ago the sheriff went to WASH
ington territory after couple Of par
ties who had been indicted BY the
grand jury. I'm putting in his bill
against the county he charged mileage
fees on both warrants, so that the bill
amounted to almost II, 100, Al
though the county attorney advocated
its payment, the board decided not to
pay mileage save on one warrant, all
lowing $3.50. The sheriff appealed
from the disallowance Of the bill to
the district court. The county attor-
ney in the meantime looked up the
matter and found that the county was
not liable when the sheriff went out
side the state, as he then became the
agent Of the state. On finding this
to be the case the county attorney
appealed from the allowance Of the
$3.50. The matter was then referred
to the attorney general, who informed
the county attorney that the state has
only a fund Of $1,000 to pay for a:
such cases and in issuing regulations
always says that the prisoner shall be
secured without expense to the state,
and this was the case in the presen,
instance. This lesves SHERIFF Bran
denburg not only without his fees,
but he is out the money he paid for
the prisoners car fare from Washing
ton territory. The decision of the
court viii be awaited with y good
deal Of interest by all the aheriffs in
the state. aff:l - '5i.a

A REWARD OFFERED FOR THE CHINESE FoRGER.

The attention Of the chdttering inhabitants Of

an orange-cOlored tea-chest proclamation calling a
union laundry meeting and bulletin which declared
that reward Of $500 had been offered for the arrest
of Chu Fong the missing cashier and Interpreter Of

the firm and uncle Of the abscondei continued count
ing his special cuts of ratchops strung along bamboo
pole when Tribune reporter asked him II there was

on saturday night had reapsed into general mo

was that Chu FOng was belly bad man; he naudS
N was said that the Chinese municipal government
was smoking over the case.
The reward for Chu Fong's arrest has been offered

is deemed not improbable that KwOng Hong Lu0ng
