Suppose the legislature had failed to
make any appropriation for the sal
aries or mileage of district judges,
would such failure operate to deprive
the officers of their salary or mileage,
and would it restrict the auditor from
drawing warrants upon the state
treasury therefore, Certainly not.
Various courts nave held that where
the constitution provides that certain
enumerated officers shall receive COM
pensation therein specified, it is tanta-
mount to an appropriation made by
law and no legislative action is neces-
sary
You are therefore advised, that under
the constitutional provision, it will be
your duty to draw warrs nts for the
salaries and mileage of district judges
quarterly, regardless of any legislative
rstrictions thereon
AS to your second question I am OF
opinion that the mileage account should
be charged to the appropriation made
for the district in which it was incur
red, regardless of whether it was in
CURED by the judge of that district
or the judge from some other district
holding court therein; in other words,
the appropriation for mileage expense
would relate to, and be chargeable 90,
the district in which it was incurred,
rather than to the judge who might be
performing official duties therein.
am therefore of opinion, and so advise
you, that the statement of mileage ex-
pense should show the district in
which the same was incurred. and that
the same should be charged TO the ex-
pense account of that district.
l have the honor to be,
Very respectfully yours,
