The PUBLIC SCHOOL FUND.
Superintendent Carlisle Secures I
Legal Decision.
HOW COMPENSATION MUST BE PAID
All Fees save Those of the County
Treasurer Come Out OF General
Fund-Last Compromise Case.

Austin, Texas, October 9.--State Super
intendent OF Public Instruction J. M. Car
Isle has written to the attorney genera
and attacked the law under which taS
collectors and assessors. county judges
acting ex-officio az county superintendent
and county treasurers arc paid their com
pensation out Of the school fund and asked
for an opinion. His objections to payina
these officers out of the available school
fund are based on two grounds. viz
/. Constitutional; In that It is contrary
| to the provisions Of article Z. section 8. OF
| the State constitution.
2. In violation OF statutory law. in that
It is contrary to the provisions Of an act
OF the special session Of the Twenty-fifth
legislature. chapter II. page 4S, AN act to
regulate and limit the expenditures Of
| State. county and local public school
fund.- etc.
The opinion Of Office Assistant ATTORNEY
| General John M. King Is to the effect that
| there Is no constitutional objection to the
payment OF the fees Of the assessor. collec-
tor and county Judge. acting ex-offcioo
county superintendent, out Of the school
fund, and that the existing law providing
the manner and mode OF their payment
and out OF what fund is not repealed by
the act Of the special session Of the Twen-
ty-tifth legislature, chapter II, page -.
In the case of the county treasurer he
holds that there is no constitutional OBJ
lection to the act OF the legislature rrovid-
ing for the payment of the compensation
allowed the county treasurers as treasurer
of State and county available school fund
out OF that fund, as provided In article
1895 of the Revised Statutes OF 1895. but
holds SO much of said article 1896 as pro-
vides for the treasurer to be paid out OF
the AVAILABLE school fund is repealed bv
the act of the Twenty fifth legislature
special session. chapter II. page 4S, by
which act 1t is provided that the State and
county available school fund shall ne ex-
pended exclusively for the following pur-
poses:
/. Teachers and superintendent SAL
aries.
2. Fees for taking the scholastic census.
Said article 1896 provides that the treas
urer's compensation shall be paid "out OF
the available school fund Of the county,"
Here there Is glarrng conflict aud, OF
course, 1t follows that so much OF article
1895 as provides that the treasurer shall be
paid his compensation out OF the county
available school fund is repealed bv the
said act OF the special session of the Twen-
" nun iesisidVuTe, CudpteT IL, page 4S.
Therefore II appears from this opinion that
the county treasurer MS custodian of the
State and county school fund must perform
bis services without compensation
1t is the opinion here of men who are
familiar with the questions involved that
had the cor -cntons Of Superintendent Car |
Isle been sustained, and these officers paid |
out OF the general revenue fund of the |
State, 1t would have cost the State oven
$780, 900 annually.
