Returning Saloon Money.

Pierre. On inquiry from Turner
county in the case of Tuntlard VS.. No
BILE. the attorney general holds that
there is no legal method by which
money paid for saloon license can
be returned to the holder OF the license
in case his right is declared invalid
for any reason. This being a case
where the supreme court held that
the license election in the town or
Centerville was not legally called.
The same state of facts exist at sever
nj other places in the state. While
that Is the holding of the attorney
general. he also believes that there
should be q statutory provision provid-
ing for refunds OF money paid into the
pubIic funds. IL il should develope that
such payment was in error and bring
ing no benefit to the parties making
such payment. He also holds IN
case from Turner county that the
county cannot recover coroner fees
from the estate Of parties found dead,
and upon whose bodies a coroners In
quest was held. He holds that under
the law allowing the county treasurer
10 give a security bond, on which the
county is to pay the premium. the
treasurer may select the company
which he desires for the giving of such
bond and that IL is the duty OF the
county board to pay such premium up
