CHRONICLE The last grand jSky of CHI.
ter county in performing the dnties IN
posed on them by law, examined ilfo
the affairs Of the various county offices,
and in its report upon the stewardship
of the assessor, brought an indictment
against that officer that the facts viii
scarcely warrant. This report would
seem to convey the idea that the asses
sor had robbed the county to the amount
of 81 per day for every days Service
rendered the county in the capacity of
assessor.
In all cases the law fixes the pay
which county officers shall receive, not
excepting the assessor. In 1881 speci-
al law was passed fixing the pay of
assessors in the counties of Pennington
and Custer at IS per day, but limited
one assessor in any one year to $500.
In 1891 the legislature cut off the $500
limitation, but left the per diem still at
So. The same legislature passed gen
eral law IN which the pay ofall assessors
was fixed at SO per day. Now. / make
the statement that the enactment Of a
general law does not repeal special
law.
This legal opinion is not my own, but
is that of the best legal counsel could
get in the county, which opinion was
asked and rendered before / entered
upon the duties of the Office in May
1891. -

During the year 1898 only five deaths
occurred in the city of Custer. Two of
these were the results of accidents, and
in the other three cases the causes were
chronic troubles of long standing. Ac-
cording to the population given the town
the last census, the death rate for the
year just closed was trhe over one
half Of one per cent, and proves beyond
any doubt that Custer is the healthiest
point in the Hills, or in the entire
northw est, for that matter.
