Public School Affairs.

The following has been submitted to
the superintendent of public instruction,
Hon. Amado Chayes, in response to an
official inquiry:
Dear Sir: Your favor, enclosing letter
from the superintendent of schools from
San Miguel county, stating that one OF
the school districts in that county had
already fully complied with the provl-
sions of the school law, relative to the
voting Of bonds contained in section "a
of chapter %, session laws of '9l, and
had requested the assessor to perform his
duty as required under said section,
which he had emphatically refused to do
until his pay for doing so Is secured to
him" and asking my opinion in the
matter, has had my attention; and III re-
ply | would say that it is the clear and
unmistskable duty of the assessor to
perform the duty enjoined upon him by
the law and if he refuses, it may be
enforced by mandamus or his continued
refusal would subject him to being re-
moved from Office for wiful neglect to
perform his official duties. In regard to
his compensation for this service, that
is another question. Any expense or
outlay that he was necessarily compelled
to incur in the performance of his duty l
think would be proper charge against
the school district which required his
service to be paid by it. Very respect
fully, EDWARD l.. BARTLETT,
Solicitor General of New Mexico.
