COUNTY HAS RIGHT ID EMPLOY COUNSEL
Judge Sharpe Hears Argu- ments in Proceedings
 Against Treasurer

That the board of revenue had the poses, but not by the year, was the con- tention of Solicitor Hugo L. Black, in his argument yesterday before Judge H. A. Sharpe of the circuit court, in the hearing of the petition for a summary judgment against County Treasurer M. V. Henry sought by w. K. Terry, attorney for the board of revenue.
 The proceedings were the outcome of the notice filed by Solicitor Black the board of revenue and the country treas urer that under the law he was the legal representative of the county and that the employment of counsel by the board was illegal. He also gave it as. his opinion that the treasurer had no authority by law for paying the warrants for MT. Terry's salary.
 In the proceedings yesterday Solicitor Black represented MT. Henry and in his denurrers filed with the court he ad- vanced the proposition that the board of revenue had no right to enter into con tract with an attorney for his services, but that for such purposes as codifying the laws or other special work, the board of revenue was clearly within it's rights.
 In answering the demurrers MT. Terry argued that the contention of Solicitor Black was not we'll taken and that the board of revenue did have the right to make contract with an attorney in that the services of the county solicitor were merely of an advisory capacity. The mat ter was taken under advisement.
 The mandanius proceedings brought by Solicitor Blacks assistants will come up for hearing this week before Judge Sharpe.
