Now the sheriffs of the state made a contract with their county and. county boards to get a salary and turn the fees to the county treasurer (I did, at least) and I i have turned over all fees earned by me to the county and I think every sheriff should live up to his contract with the county notwith standing a technical point in the law, and if every sheriff in the state should put in his claim I would never do so, I would live up to my contract.
