Commissioners Must
Pay Back Money

Pay Back Money
A finding in behalf of the plain.
tiff in the case of Dawson county
against Andrew Larson and He'd.
ley V. Robinson, county commits
sioners, and Frank ]. Winkler, for
mer member of the board was
rendered last Thursday by Judge
John Hurry of Glasgow, according
to a communication received from
him by Attorneys Anderson and
Leiper. The result Of such deci-
sion is that Mr.. Larson will be re-
quired to pay back to Dawson
county $3,569.53, Mr.. Winkler
S1,41O.75 and MI. Robinson S319.25
all Of which moneys were collect
ed by the commissioners as per
diem and travelling expenses in
Cured in viewing roads.
Action in the matter was insti-
tuted in district court several
months ago, the complaint setting
forth that the charge against the
county of So per day and Is cents
per mile for travelling expenses
was not a proper one against the
county, under the statutes.
In the plaintiffs brief, SUBMIT
ed to the court, it points out that
the agreed statement of facts con-
tains the following general state
ment with reference to all of the
causes of action.
ut is hereby stipulated that the
services for which such charges
were made were actually rendered
and believed to be for the best in
terests of the county in connec-
lions with the road work under
the immediate supervision of the
board and was done pursuant to
a general order of the board of
county commissioners, providing
for such supervision and inspec-
ton, but was not rendered pur-
suant to any previous order of the
board directing the defendant to
inspect the condition of any con-
tract construction work on any
highway or bridge in the county,
or in connection with any such in
spection."
In his findings Judge Hurry
said, in part: 81 think that under
the law of 1913 before commits
sioner could charge per diem for
inspecting road work it was nee
essary that he be specially author
lied by the board and that general
orders would not suffice.
By stipulation it is conceded
that the commissioners acted in
good faith and for what they be-
lieved to be the best interests of
the county. Ifeel, however, that
regardless of this fact, the statute
left no discretion with the board
and that the fees charged and col
lected by the commissioners were
unlawful, and / feel it my duty to {
render judgement as indicated.
If the county attorney will prepare
judgement in accordance with the
views herein indicated and forward
to me for signature, | will sign
the same"
The case came up for hearing
on October 9, 1917, before Judge :
John Hurry of Glasgow, Judge C. /,
c. Hurley of this district having
disqualified himself. The plaintiff
was represented by Council Attor-
ney Anderson and the defendants
by Attorneys Leiper of Glendive
and Loud of Miles City.-D. C.

With the death of our neighbor
Mrs. Lucy Fackrell, who died on
Monday from Spanish influenza,
there passed away one of the kindest
and most needed mothers of our COM
munity, and her passing away with
many others, are causing many peo-
pie to mourn. What are the health
officers, who are responsible for the
public health, doing to combat the
enemy that is in our midst? And
we feel with DR.. Middleton of Salt
Lake that if these officials do not
take a more determined course, that
the condemnation of the public opin-
ion is going to fall heavily in some
quarters.
Paul Alfred received word Monday
from Idaho Falls of the death of
his cousin, ex-Sheriff J. s. Mulliner,
who died from the influenza. Mr..
Mulliner served Bingham county one
term as deputy assessor. He is we'll
known to many people of this place
and the surrounding towns. His
two terms as sheriff of Bonneville
county were strongly marked by his
determined fight for the enforcement
of the prohibition laws and his loss
will be keenly felt by the public in
his home town.
Andrew Anderson and his family
have been stricken with influenza,
to recovery at this time.
but are reported to be on the way
Other cases in the community so
far as we can learn are progressing
satisfactorily.
The funeral of Mrs. Farley Fack-
rell was held on Thursday, there be-
ing but a small attendance. This
fact being due to precautions on the
part of the people to. prevent the
spread of the plague, and in no
manner bespeaks the esteem in which
Mrs. Fackrell was held in the COM
munity, for she was held in the
highest esteem by all who knew her.
Her kind and motherly ways and
courteous, obloging manners having
long since won the esteem of her
neighbors far and near. Mr.. Fack-
rell is caring for his little ones and
nursing his sick alone save for the
help that neighbors can render oc-
casionaly.
