county from the third 10 the second class

ford applied TO the state auditor TO bc

auditor refused and allowed him only tho
old compensation. Under the law the
state pays half the salary of tho county
attorney and tho county tho other half.
The auditor is therefore allowing Hcrfor,l
$50 n month instead of $3.50, as lie claims
