his off ice and the latter to receive campen bation at the hands of the coun tag at the rate of per day both to be allow ed necessary expenses now this may seem like rather high ages for inspecting bees but glance it the text 0 the bill defining the du tics of the inspectors will show that all things considered it is not too much the inspectors must be bee doc tors as well as inspectors and be

sustained the action of the lower court the salt lake papers a few days ago evidently jumped at conclusions and fell far short of thefacts it will beremembered that it the june term of the district court last year morgan was on trial for a statutory offense alleged to have been committed on the person of one katie riley in afe drawing up of the corn plaint upon which morgan was bound 0 er by the justice of the peace in the duskof the evening thedistrict actor cey struck the cap 1 ey of his type writer instead of the cap key mak ing the name in the complaint read kiley where it should have read riley the complaining witness ao 10 the hurry of pressing the case to isgut the error was undetected by him until judge While cotton after the case had proceeded far eno agh along to plead once in jeopardy for his client if nee essary moved to dismiss the case on account of the misspelled name the matter was argued at some length by the opposing counsel at tha conclusion of judge er acksen granted the motion of thedefendant a counsel and morgan went free district actor rey then appealed the case to the su court where the matter has rest ed until lately when it was ced by the salt lake papers that the court had sustained the action of the lower court the facts of the case aro that the matter was not heard on itsmerits by jhb higher cobit for some reason best known to himself ex attorney breeden evidently concluded that there was no merit in the appeal andhe not having filed an abstract or brief in in the case the defendant attorney move forthe dismissalof the appeal aone forthe state the mo tion was granted this ill conceived action of the actor ney general is much regretted by many members of the bar as the issue was a new one here and ite consideration and ruling by the court was much de sired a matter of fact a similar guestion go estion hagi evet upon a court of last resort the united states so far as any printed records show and for that reason members of he bar became much interested and i desired the establishment of a pieced ent by the supreme court ofthis state he district attorney spent considerable ime both at hotie and in salt lake giefing the matter and was assisted to some extent by attorney boatz atho other equally held to the opinion hatthe lower court had ened in the cabb for the reason that the name being correct in the informs tion and the defendant waived examination and not hay ing entered a special plea to the anfor biasion Bia tion he therefore waived the error in the complaint the failure of the attorney general to take up this matter recalls another upon his part wherein the su court itself assumed the duties of negligent attorney we refer to the case of tho bato richarb Rich arh from sanpete county the defendant atas prosecuted for by mr woods dur ng his firt term of office and a conviction was obtained defendant appealed the case to the supreme court the attorney general filed no brief nor made adv argument but on the contrary error in his absence the sup rera court ignoring his confession of error considered the case and held that there was no error and affirmed the judgment and condic tion of the cobit below so much for attorney general breed en 8 opinion COUNTY commissioners TRANSACT SOME BUSINESS the county commissioners met this week and transacted what business that came beforethem in a speedy
