The appointment of P. z. Prince as

first, the county is not entitled to a reg
ular deputy attorney, and, second, such
deputy, when one is appointed for spe-
cial cases, must be appointed by the
judge of the district court. That Mr..
Denny could appoint is backed by the
fact that he has, and his departure from
thesstate will probably settle the mat
ter n his action be acquiesced in.
