Soma Ideas on the Deputy Extracts. Business—A few In response to a request for a legal opinion, bearing on the powers and duties of the board of county commis sioners in the matter of allowing clerk hire to assessors and probate judges, attorney Forney of Latah county sub mitted the following: The board of commissioners is a tri bunal of special and limited jurisdic tion. Its powers are specially con ferred by statute and its power to act must affirmatively appear. The board has, however, discretionary powers in certain instances: for example, the 1)0 wer conferred by section 6, article 18 of the constitution, in which they are permitted to fix the compensation of such deputies and clerical assistants of the sheriff and auditor as the business of their respective offices may require. This is a legal discretion and should be exercised for the best interests of the county. "The maximum compensa tion to be paid annually to assessors and tax collectors is limited oy the provisions of section 6, article 18 of the constitution to the sum of $3,000, and he cannot in any event receive a large sum." The constitution contains no provision making allowances for dep uties or clerical assistants in any office other than the sheriff and auditor, and, in my opinion, clearly prohibits such allowances to any other officer. Referring to the remaining question propounded by you, whether the sheriff is entitled to à per diem compensation for attending upon the District Court when in session, I am clearly of opinion that he is not. Under the old law, this per diem was legally charge able against the county. IJut by the adoption of the constitution and the enactment of subsequent legislation this provision was repealed, and the countv is not liable for any fees or com missions as hereinbefore stated, unless made so by some express statutory pro vision. The foregoing extracts are published in order that both sides question may be heard. of the deputy Mr. C. F. Davis, editor of the Bloomfield, Iowa, farmer, says: "I can recommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to all sufferers with colds and croup. I have used it in my family for the past two years and have found it the best I ever used for the purposes for which it is intended. 50 cent bottles for sale by all drnggists. KSTRAY NOTICE.
