OMAHA, Sept 15-To the Editor of The
Bee: A word with reference to the record
of w. w. slabaugh. our present county at
torney, so far as am officially acquainted
with 1t. Having been member of the
county board for two years and chairman
of the board for the last year. l am III
a position to know the value OF his service
10 the people OF this county and TO the
county board. and 1 consider the county
very fortunate in having so faithful and
efficient an officer. His advice on legal
questions to us. board, has had much
to do in putting this county on cash
basis. His opinions. so far / know. on
the many legal questions constantly arts
ing, have been correct without exception.
We have never found him wanting. We
have not paid out 81 for special counsel
under his administration. He has repre-
scented the county in many important suits
in the district court and In the supreme
court and has been remarkably success
full. He Represented the county in the
United States court in the suit by the
Omaha Water company TO enJoin the col
lection OF some $21, 600 in taxes and was
successful. His opinions on the many new
questions under the scavenger tax law have
thus far been proven correct He was
successful in the supreme court in the
primary case and In the Inheritance tax
law case. which he was the first TO en-
force and has brought into the county
treasury already about $4,000 for perma-
nent roads. Nearly every case
that he has taken 10 the SUI
preme court where there was a night
ing chance he has won. He intends TO
bring suit TO recover uncoiiected fees, he
informs us, but II will be impossible TO
do so before the experts now checking over
| the oficials' books have completed their
work. that he may know what is due the
county. As TO the collection OF marriage
ceremony fees. he is assisting the county
attorney OF Saunders county in suit In
the district court already begun there TO
determine whether those fees must be &C
counted for by the county Judge. and II
he finds the suit Is not speedily pushed
