AS TO RURAL ROUTES.
inspectors Are at Perry Looking Over
the Field

Perry, o. T., Jan. 12-Messrs. y. NJ.
route inspectors from Washington. d. c..
are in the city and guests at Hotel Mer-
chants. Mr.. StedEaan has with him a de-
hghtful little family of wife and two
children. says the Republican. Mr. Sted-
man said:
There are seven petitions in for the
establishment OF that number of new
routes out of Perry and we have been
sent here by the department to make in
vestigation and report TO the authorities.
OF course. until we 20 out over these
proposed new rural routes We cannot give
your readers any information The es-
tablishment of these new routes depends
entirely upon the condition of roads and
bridges and the number of families each
route will accommodate. We will make
headquarters in Perry for two weeks
and at the end of that time we can give
out more definitely what the prospects
for the extension of rural services will be.
Our reports go to the federal officers
in the st. Louis division, who have
the southwestern interests in charge, and
from there the report goes to the fourth
assistant postmaster general in Washing
ton.
If conditions are favorable. We see no
reason why your people should not enjoy
the establishment of the routes as they
have petitioned. While we are in your
city there will be held civil service exam
nations for carriers for the rurarl routes,
so if the matter is acted upon favorably
by the department there will be no un-
necessary delay in the starting of the
new rural deliveries

PART OF SHERIFF'S FEES.
Question Has Come Up in Several
Counties Of Late

Guthrie Q. T. Jan. 12.-Sonle time ago
says report from Hobart. The county
attorney held that the sheriff was not
entitled under the statutes OF 1857 to col
lect from the county only one-haIf Of the
fees prescribed by that act in criminal
cases, except misdemeanors. when the
same is not paid By the defendant or
prosecuting witness. Acting upon this
advice the county commissioners refused
TO pay the sheriff of this county only
one-half OF sueh fees The question was
submitted 10 Judge Gillette for his opin-
ion. but as he was very busy and did not
have time "a investigate the question he
submitted it TO Judge Haine-. who says
he had the identical question before him
a few days ago At Pawnee. He holds
that section -. chapter * Of the session
laws OF 1897 does not apply To sherifs.
and that the provision OF the fees and
salaries act applies solely to cons;abies
and justices Of the peace. Judge Gillette
co1cuss in this view or the law. There
fore. according 10 the opinion. the sheriff
is entitled 20 the fun fees as heretofore
collected
The county attorney still insssts that
his view of the case is the correct one,
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1904-01-13

and will take the matter into court The
county commissioners ssill refuse to pay
more than the one-half recommended to
be paid by the county attorney.
The same question has recently come
up in GARFIELD county and has there taken
form in the suit Eow being brought
against ex-Sherif c. V. Porter for the
recovery of something like 5000, alleged
TO have been collected Illegally from the
county while Porter served in ct1ce. The
Garfield county commissioners now in
session have instructed the county at
torney 20 bring suit and the papers Will
be fled within q week. 1t is a test case
based on The Interpretation of the law
by the present board.
County Attorney Stursis explains the
suit by saying that sheriff is not enti-
tied to collect expense Incurred by him
in serving criminal process within the
territory. This ruling is based on The
principle that the county is not liable for
fees OF expenses of any officer, unless
the statute expressly provides
In this connection the county attorney
holds that no officer is entitled to fees
from the county in misdemeanor cases. If
the courts hold this as being true the
counties will be saved several thousand
dollars each year.
