YINSONHAIER MUST PAT UP
Former County Judg-e Owei for Feet,
Saji Court.
SEARS SAYS MUST COME ACROSS
Headers Derlals that Over Fire
Thaasaad Fear Haadrrd Iol
lara la Dae the
People.
Judge W. O. Bears In district court
Wednesday morning rendered a decision,
b the caan of Douglas county SLgatnst
former County Judge Duncan M. Vlnsen
haler and his bondsmn. by which he finds
the former judge Is required' to pay the
county the money collected as marriage
fees during his six years In office. This
amounts to 36.457. The county lost Its con
tention on the second count of the suit,
which was a demand for uncollected fees
earned during the Incumbency of Judge
Vlnsonhaler. The amount lnvftlved In this
count was tlS.7M.12.
In a written memorandum opinion Judse
Sears considers the pleadings at length.
He finds the legislature. In providing th
county Judge shall collect the fees pre
scribed for Justices of the pesce for the
same services, made no distinction between
those fees earned In the exercise of '"Juris
dictional" powers and those earned In any
other manner; that for this reason miner
received for performing the marr a?e ser
vice are a part of the "fees of the office."
No nar to Lesjrtalatarr.
Taking up the contention that undr the
constitutional provision prohibiting the leg
islature from prescribing a salary for the
county Judge, be says this Inhibition does
not prevent the legislature from requiring
the county Judge to turn Into the county
treasury all feas In excess of a, certain
amount and draws a distinction between
a fixed amount, as a salary and a limita
tion on fees, the former being known and
the latter unknown, except as to its max
imum amount. He holds that as soon as
the legislature has fixed a limit tfl the
amount of feea which nin bo retained by
an officer the public has an Interest In all
fees which may be earned by that
officer and that, marriage feea are
not a perquisite of the office. On
this last point he says neither by cus
tom nor construction Of law has the con
tention been established and that pre
cedent In Douglas County has no binding
effect, since It was not shown to be rre
cedent In all counties of the state, which
must be done before precedent can be
established, no matter how long standing
the precedent may be.
Amount of Fees.

spond to the appeal. The conference of

In an Interview Vice President Lytle
placed the responsibility of the failure upon
the shoulders of W. Cooper Morris, the
cashier. Lytle asserted that without au
thority of the board of directors Morris
bought securities for hundreds of thousands
of dollars and sold the securities for large
sumsy and last Thursday, without author
ity, Morris took home bonds of a telephone
company amounting to 21,300,000 and went
to New York to diapoaa of them, evidently
with an Idea ot obtaining funds to place
the bank on a better financial baals. .While
Lytle Is severe In his condemnation of the
bus'nrss methods of Cashier Morris, friends
of Morris say he acted within hJs rights,
and had the bank been allowed to do busi
ness for a few mors days Morris would
have placed it upon its feet. It Is known
that the bank owned valuable real estate
and other securities.
