FOR NOTICES

The present fiscal court differs
from the lass as to what constitutes
REASONABLE fee for tie sheriff in
serving the notices OF increases in
valuation by the county board Of
supervisors. The magistrates have
allowed Sheriff George Houser so
cents for every notice served In the
county. while a fee OF 35 cents Is
paid for the serving OF the supervis-
or's notices in the city.
The statute does not fix any COM
pensatlon more than a reasonable
fee" During the last administra-
tion the magistrates kicked strenu-
ously at allowing former Sheriff
John w. ogilvie 80 cents for serving
the notices, but the fiscal court has
experienced a change OF heart. Dur
ing the first year Mr.. Ogilvie was al
lowed 35 cents for each notice, but
the second year the fee was cut to
.i7k cents. Quite a squabble en-
sued over The small fee. as Mr.. 0gil-
vie claimed that there was only a
few cents profi'. and In 1908 the fee
was Increased to 20 cents
Sheriff George Houser was a trife
uneasy about getting a small fee, too.
but the fiscal court last month allow
ed his bill at so cents in the county
and 50 cents In. the city for serving
the notices. and II Is said that no
change VII be made in the fee when
the bill for the remainder Of the no
ticesces is presented next Tuesday.
