It Assistant Attorney-General Craw ford Is correct In his construction of the law and he cites a supreme court ruling to sustain him any sheriff who In the past, or who Is now col lecting fees In civil cases, save In a few specific Instances, and turning them over to the county treasurer is doing so without authority of law. In his opinion the assistant attorney-general traces the law back to the beginning, and concludes that flat sal ary act has superceded all laws au thorizing sheriffs to collect fees in lrll case. The opinion will be sweeping in effect, as there is not county In the state In which sheriffs have not and are not collecting fees in such cases, and have cited as their authority for doing so an old law, which the assistant attorney-general maintains is repealed. The opinion is rendered at the re quest of Wils Smith, of Grants Pass, sheriff of Josephine county. The as sistant attorney-general calls atten tion to section 3126 of Lord's Oregon Laws, the act authorizing sheriffs to collect fees for their compensation. This act was passed in 1874. In 1891 the legislature amended the law, and two years afterwards chapter IS of title 25, providing salaries for all county officers. Instead of fees, as compensation, was passed. It con tained a clause, however, providing that sheriffs might collect fees in civil cases and turn them over to the coun ty. In 1895 this same act was again amended, and then the clause refer red to eliminated, and the assistant attorney-general, because of this, gives It as his opinion that It was not the Intent of the legislature that a sheriff should collect tees In civil cases eith er for his own benefit or the county, or for any other purpose, save In a few isolated cases, where the author ity is specifically given by statute. It Is possible that the opinion will not affect Multnomah county, as it Is understood to be operating under a special law on the subject but every other county in the state will be af fected. o Tou will find that druggists every where speak well of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
