that his honor was not only the

making such record as would

of life. The public expect these Of
ficials to give their time and best
energies TO their public duties and the
people in return expect they shall have
due and proper compensation therefor.
Stop all extravaganza in county mat
tiers, let honesty, fidelity and capability
be the paramount consideration, pay
your county officials living salaries,
commensurate with their duties and
responsibilities and the people will say
amen to this kind of program, for it
is right and the true policy of the law.
After due consideration of the evil
dence introduced in this case, both by
the appellant and respondent. the
court has arrivedat the flowing fiEd
ings of facts and conclusions of law in
the appeal herein submitted:
LIST. The evidence introduced in this
case discloses the fact that the offices
in question have been self-sustaining
and an increase in the salaries of
said offices would incur little, if any,
additional burden on the taxpayers of
Bingham county.
End. That the Board of County Com
missioners fixed the salaries of the APP
pellants herein on the 10Th day of
April. A. D. 1899, respectively as fol-
lows:
Sheriff ..............$1, 400 90
Clerk of Dist Court. 800 90
Assessor and Col ......1 300 90
| Probate Judge. 900 90
Srd. That the Board of County Com
missioners did not sufficiently take into
consideration as they should the in
come derived from the offices for the
county, the time consumed and the ma
ture of the labors and responsibilities
attached thereto and cost of living, but
based their action on too rigid zeal
for economy to the taxpayers that did
injustice to appellants, and policy
that might result, if persisted in, in
placing the affairs of the county in in
competent hands, and result in the Of
ticials Sinking their duties. The Com
missioners did not use their discretion
in the matter as wisely and prudently
as they should.
The decision of the court is that the
order of the Bard of County Commits
sioners hereto appealed from, is re-
manded TO said Board, with instruc-
tions that they modify said order by
striking out from the salary of the
Sheriff the figures 81, 400 and insert in
lieu thereof the figures 81 300; strike
out from the salary of the Clerk
County Recorder, Auditor and Clerk Of
, Board of County Commissioners of the
District Court the figures 81 800 and in
! sert in lieu thereof the figures 81, 800
: strike out in the salary of the Assessor
and Collector the figures 81, 500 and in
sert in lieu thereof the figures 81, 200
