COUNTY
Attorney General Would investigate
Legality Of Salaries

The following self-explanatory let
ter has been sent by the attorney
general to the chairman of the senate
judiciary committee:
Hon. Ira Curtis. Chairman.
Judiciary Committee, Pierre.
Dear Sir: The question has arisen
in many of the counties Of the state.
as to whether or not county treasur-
ers are legally entitled to receive the
salaries that are being paid them.
Under Chapter Ill OF the Session
Laws of 1909, the law provides in
Section ] that the county treasurer
shall receive four per cent OF said
taxes collected only. Section two
provides that the county commission
ers shall make an annual levy for a
sum sufficient to pay the county Of
ficers. Section $40 Of the Political
Code Of 1903 provides that the coun-
ty treasurers shall receive salaries OF
not to exceed fifteen hundred dollars
in counties Of less than fifteen thou
sand inhabitants, and in counties
having more than fifteen thousand in
habitantS they will receive not to eX-
coed two thousand dollars per annum
The legislature. in passing Chapter
Ill of the session laws of 1909. evil
IDENTIFY did not take into consideration
the fact that the Office of county
treasurer is a fee office.
In the county of Trip. for instance,
where there is q great deal OF Indian
land, the treasurer of Trip county
will receive about n hundred dol
lars per year for his salary by a strict
construction of law. This matter
has been evaded by some of the coun-
ties by having the county commission
ers fix the salary of the county treas
urer arbitrarily. but there is Il grave
question whether or not this fixing
of salaries by the county commission
ers Is in violation of Section 6, Article
8 of the Constitution, and must, un-
doubtedly be a delegation OF power if
they have such authority. AS the
courthouse in Trip county recentl,'
burned, destroying many of the ret.
ords of the county, there will be a
great deal of work placed upon the
shoulders OF the county treasurer, and
if he cannot receive, legally more
than One hundred dollars a year he
will undoubtedly resign.
If this matter were brought before
the judiciary committee they would
undoubtedly see the necessity of i'm
mediately framing a bill to meet this
situation. Very truly yours
ROYAL C. JOHNSON.
Attorney General.

NOTES.

There were SO many towns after it
that none received a majority vote in
the election. The house judiciary
committee would remedy such condi-
lions with H. B. No. 1872. 1t provides
that where a county seat is not chosen
at an election, at the subsequent cleo
ton, only the two leading towns fer
the place, can enter the race.
Representative Sutley's bill for an
experimental farm at Vivian in Ly-
man county will be reported favorably
by the agricultural committee of the
house. 1t is understood that the Mil
waukee railroad company has offered
the state a permanent gratuitious
lease Of land suitable for a cite, which
the state may keep as long as an ex.
perimental farm is maintained there.
Representative Bufington's bill mo
1881 relating to the payment of taxes
in cases where the tax records are
destroyed, was prompted by the burn.

which destroyed their tax records. The
bill provides that in such cases taxes
shall not beccs1o delinquent until

That the union BARRIERS and bartenders
might agree TO discard their regulation

toners and patrons In their shirt sleeves
or Garbed in ordinary business dress.
was one of the plans suggested at q
meeting held yesterday by the executive
boards of the union BARRIERS and bartend-
crs with several representatives of the
laundry workers union, However, no
official course OF action was agreed up
on, and the whole matter is held in abcy-
ance and will be further considered at
another meeting to be held this after
noon, which will be In the nature OF an
executive session,
Some OF those who were present at
the meeting held yesterday pointed out
that as the warm weather season was
at hand there was no specific reason
for either BARRIERS or bartcnders wear
ing coats while on duty. and others suS-
gested that the plain business coat thai
does not require the service of laun-
dryman would in any event answer the
purpose.
After the meeting ono OF those who
attended stated that the purpose OF this
plan was TO take business away from
the laundries.

stration on the part of the striking ialin-
dry workers. 4 few of them. wearing
their red badges. appeared on the streets
