The case of Daniel d. Camp
bell VS.. the Board of County
Commissioners of Canyon county
was decided in favor of the de
PENDANTS.
In this case the sheriff of Can
yon county had made application
to the commissioners of that
county for authority to appoint a
deputy, and the request was de-
MED. The sheriff then took an
appeal to the district court, and
the court reversed and set aside
the order of the Board, and
directed the commissioners to
authorize the sheriff to appoint
a deputy and fix a reasonable
compensation for the same. An
appeal was taken to the supreme
court by the commissioners and
the Judgment of the lower court
reversed.
The syllabus says:"The sheriff
cannot appoint a deputy unless
empowered by the board OF
county commissioners so to do,
and the said board must, when
so requested, determine the nee
essity therefor.
THE order of such boerd auth
orizing or refusing to authorize
such appointmentmay be review
ed on appeal by the district
court.
when such appeal is taken,
there must be trial de novo by
the district court.
The district court is reversed
on a point of procedure. The
supreme court holds the applica-
ton for the deputy must first be
acted on by the commissioners
only after they have taken evi-
dence bearing on the application.
If the boards action is unSatiS-
factory an appeal may be taken
to the district court The dis
trict court cannot arbitrarily or
der the appointment of a deputy
without these steps having been
taken.-Caldwell Tribune.
