only If sue tried was whether thu appel

Mi in the mlbngo lor certain alleged
r-crvirc.. As In the cao nl Crawford
v. Ahial.:tm.2 Ogn., L03 this Court
is to give n cutiNtiuutloii to certain sec
tion in the code, nud thus establish a
corwiin inlc, which hall opvrntu nlike
in tho ililVeroiil counties In this State.
We are nwaru that great diuVrcnccs of

questions that have arisen in tho differ

i egret that we cannot now jivu a full
construction lo that law, which could
cover nil 0",5U liwttcts. The sections
mainly calling lor comttructioii hero
are tlicso: ,
See. 1 1, p. 738 : " Kvpry olllecr or

provide specially for such coinpens.v
tion, or by their hllcnco lead to the
coiulii'iim that none was to bu given.
Ily section 31, cited, n new duly Is

Section :)., us cites, provides I ho com
pensation which thu tax collector is
lo have, niitl the net of which It Is n
pail undertakes lo fully dcliou thu ilu-
ties nud liabilities of such officer. Wu
think it was in'.cnded by tho Legisla

of tinvel he could obviate thu necessi
ty of n greater, nud by a gross amount
of percentage indicated their intention
ol inaklue; that a full compensation.
Upon lb llrt nud Inil points in tho
special verdict we think tliu Court be
low found coucctly ns to thu law.
Thu question as to porting notices
of election does not seem Iq have been
submitted to the jury, probably fiom j
nadvertaiicuj for.it tliu duty of rerv
iug notices of appointment upon Jud
ges of election could carry mileage,
certainly that of posting notices ol
election in each pieeiiiel is equally pier
ritorious. Our decLjon, however, of
lhu ono will bo an indication of the
construction on that point, upon which
Couuty Com la may hereafter net.
Seo. II, giving tho right to mileage,
applies its privileges to wiluerses and
Sheriffs alike. Their fees arc contained
in the same net, and Miullar cases
oases should have similar allowances.
This Court held in if Ogn., 105, our
rule to bo thus; The claim for dis
bursements must bo for tho number of
miles actually traveled, nnd 'the num
ber of days in actnal ilteudanco ntr a
witness only," and as a rule Mill further
delineating the rights ol a witness, that
'In two or moro cases, between the
samo parlies, at tho same term, a wit
ness would bo allowed but single mile
ngo nnd attendance Ao." Tho full forcu
of theso rules does not apply here, bm
tho intention thcru manifested is plain,
that tlu claim must bo for thu number
of miles actually traveled, and curves
somq purppso in gujding our findings
here. '
Sec. 14 wo think means this il in
executing a public duty an officer, of
thai class of persons provided for. roust
nc'cersaiily travel any distance,, he is
to bu allowed ten cents per milo for
his actual going to and reluming from
the place whore he executes that duty.
And wo' think that section 10, read in
connection with section' M. provides
lu the ease of tho Sheriff, tlmt no mat
ter where ho may Ikj when a process
is, put Ipto his han;)s,ho min cstimati
(tig his mili-ago cqunt from tho conn'
ty scat. Thi evidently arisen from
the fact that his offico is thcro by law,
and ho is supposed to be preieut there
ready for any bullae connected wjth

Applying this construct ion to Iho
case under consideration, the notice to
the judges in ench precinct is required.

, uuustinl construction to thu law. We
. .
duet from thu cnuntv ttnt to thu resi
dence ol thu f.iithc-l oiio named in
such notice to bu served. No evidence
is here to idiow other than thu tru'.h of
the finding of the jury as to tho actual
number ol miles traveled by appellant,
nnd eeitnitily thu amount alleged to
have been pntd him by respondent
more than covers tho claim duu upon
verdict.
Tho jury very propcily found that
the appellant served a unite of one
panel ol jutors, and found thu miles
nctunlly traveled in executing thnl
.ten leu, pud from that (hiding wo think
the com t paid nppellnut all he should
hu entitled to receive. The constitu
tion of the Matitto must bu madu in
Hiiboidliiatlou to thu rules ho long
known nud well vstnbl shed, nud to
than construction tho com I must bring
tin cxcrelsool common sense nud reason.
Suppoc the Sheriff lias a vunlro for a
panel of jtirurn, in a single process or
paper, nud il turns out, ns may happen,
(that ten jurois live in the same pnit of
thu county, t,ay fifty miles from the
county rent. At- furthest thieu days
nru Millieieut to servo them nnd make
return. Ilu may travel enough nddl
tion.nl miles ingoinu' to each juror to
make thu wholu distnncu traveled 120
miles. For this hu receives an nllow-
niieo under our construction ol twelve
dollars besides tlio serving of venire
on each jmnr. If ho were entitled to
n miloago for each man served, ns is
claimed in this case, the number ol
miles no claimed could not be Ium than
1000; nnd then Ids three days labor
would realize him nbnut 3$ dollars pur
day.- Wo know hardships may arise
on cither hand ; but w6 find uo analog
ous cio in the statutes in which nuy
other officer or person has such e.Men
hivo rights ns nrc claimed by .appellant.
On thu contrary thu constitution ol
Oregon nnd llio Legirlnturu have sought
to obtnin services in nlmost every other
officer nt low rates theicfor. Wcro vie
to glvo tho construction claimed by
appellant, tho counties of large territoiy
in lids Stato would hecomo hopelessly
Involved, nud s'leh result is manifest
in this o.i;e,

prciimo Hint thoso services cbtild have

tho second part of thu verdict, upon

mites is f,600, calling foi an allowance
of $069 00, exolusivu oi service in the
ono case about bix dollars per day, and
in tho other about sixty-six.
Tho Legislature has loft It to soino ex

stiuctlon of sections fpurtcen npd .fif

to that view which is most in oonso
nauqo v)t!i equality and right, .and
