The undersigned have made application to the State Board of abstractors of Colorado, for a,
License as Abstractors in Pitkin County, and will file bond and do all things required by low.
When aid License is issued the Attorney General office has ruled that the Las imply that when a

not containing maps or plats and in some instances are incorrect, and in error, and that the'
same will have to be checked with the record and errors removed, and that further other

The facts stated and consideration of the premises, we hereby tender to you a proposition;
of lease with option to purchase the said Books which is not the regular books of the Clerk '

r COPY. OF OPINION NO.111, ATTORNEY GENERAL'S REPORT 1$2$
To: E.H.Zimmerman, Aug. 26, 1929. - -
Chapter 57, S. L. 1929, revokes by implication Sec. 8742, C. L. 1921, insofar as same a•plies
to- oounty clerks in counties where there is a licenses abstractor, except that in such
counties which own and operate their own abstracting plant there - might be an exception to the
revocation in case the eountolerk was the officer who opeaated the plant.
What an abstracting plant is would be a question of fact for a court or jury in eaoh
instance under consideration.
The legislature has made the District Attorney the official to enforce the penal clauses o the
law for violations thereof. The Board may not directly regulate the violation of the law.
The Board,as constituted under the present act, would not have authority to promulgate a
rule of ethics to the end that two or more abstractors doing business in the same county
could be restrained from cutting each other's lieloaft.
A county judge who receives money for making and compiling abstracts of title is not
required to account to the county for the money so received.

April 9, 1937
Board of County Commissioners, Aspen, Colorado.
Gentlemen: As you know we represent the Liberty Trucks and Parts ompany who have a con-
' tract with the County calling for the payment of a Cletrao Tractor delivered to you approx-
imately one year ago. This contract has been upheld by a judgment of the district court
*"'"° whioh is now long past due.
A conversation with the attorneys for the plaintiff in that cause indioates that no ap0
peal will be taken from the original decision, but whether an appeal be taken or not the
County is entirely protected even in the event of a reversal of the decision in the lower
court by virtue of the following facts:
First, that no stay of execution was granted in the original oase; second, in the event
a repayment of the money should be ordered the Liberty Truck and Parts Company is finan-
cially responsible and payment will be immediately forthooming; and third, we do personally
guarantee the County against any loss by virtue of an immediate payment of this account.
The advice to pay the Liberty Truok and Parts Company in full for the tractor is based
not only upon our representation of the Liberty Truoka and Parts Company, bgt also by virtue
of our representation of the County as well in the suit mentioned.

Clerk of the Supreme Court of Colorado Denver, Colo.
Dear Sir: I am instructed by the Board of County Commissioners of this County to write you
asking if the Cause of M.L.Carroll, et. al. vs The Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin
County regarding the purchase of a Cletrao Tractor has been appealed to said Supreme Court,
since last August (1936) Very truly yours M.M.Neihardt, Clerk.

M••Neihardt County Clerk & Recorder Aspen, Colorado
Dear MR. Neihardt: Sometime ago Mr. Gerbaz, one of the members of the Board of County
Commissioners, asked me for an opinion on the same subject matter for whioh you ask anj
opinion in your letter dated April 20, 1937. Inasmuch as the former opinion which I ren-
dered clearly outlines mg views, I mustaxs am enclosing a copy of said former opinion.
CEno.1 FD:HE Yours truly, Frank Delaney
March 20, 1937
Crest A. Gerbaz Woody Creek, Colorado
Dear Mr. Gerbax: This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter asking me tof an opinion as
District Attorney on the course which the county should pursue with respect to the payment
of the 01500.00 now due on the purchase price of a tractor.
Before suit was brought on this claim I was asked for an opinion by another offioial and
at that time concluded that it was illegal to expend the amount of money involved in this
transaotion without any provision in the budget therefor. However, I understand that a
suit has been brought by certain taxpayers and the District Court of Pitki4 County, Colorado,
decided that the County Commissioners had the legal right tobuy the tractor. In view of this
situation, I presume that it is the duty of all concerned to follow the decision of the
District Court unless and until it be reversed by the Supreme Court.
I understand that there is a possibility of the case being removed to the Supreme Court
and in view of this situation, for your own protection, I would endeavor, if I were you,
to obtain an indemnifying bong from the Company to Atom payment is to be made. Otherwise,
there might be a possibility of personal liability in the event the case was reversed in
the Supreme Court. Yours truly, Frank Delaney

1 ' RESOLUTIONS OF TEE BOARD 'OF COUNTY COM1vIISSIONERS, PITKIN COUNTY
WHEREAS, it has been called to the attention of the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin
County, Colorado, that there are now pending before the Public Utilities Commission applioat'6ns
of C. B. Rader and C. A. Rule No. 3907 and likewise of Luie A. Ammerman by application No.
• 3167 -B for a certificate of Public Convenienoe and Necessity for transportation of passenger =, baggage,
mail and express between Glenwood Springs and Aspen and intermediate points.
WHEREAS, it appears further to the Board of County Commissioners that an additional applioat''on
has been made by the Denver and Rio Grande Trustees by application No. 3851 that in case
either of these applications of said Rader and Rule and /or Luie Ammerman be granted that the
said D&RGW will discontinue mixed tranis Nos. 229 and 230 between Aspen and Glenwood Springs',
and intermediate points and will in its plane substitute carload freight service as and when';
required to reasonably serve the shipping public.
WHEREAS, the said Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County, Colorado, has made a thoroigh
!! and rigid investigation as to the needs of the said application of the said Rader and Rule a d
Luie B. Ammerman and find no good cause or reason or necessity for usoh proposed operations a
1 and further have found that the said proposed service will handicap the shippin of ores fro(
Aspen by reason of the fact that it will prevent the shippin of said ores except at infrequnt
times, hence causing a loss because of the net profit on ores shipped ofteen depends upon prompt
i delivery at dewtination, whioh prompt delivery could not be assured unless trains depart frog'
jj Aspen at least daily.
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County has further found that the transportation
of Carload lots of sheep, cattle and farm products from Pitkin County will be similarly handi-
capped by occasional carload shippings as proposed by the said railroad. Due to the fluetuatfon
of prices in livestock and farm commodities, prices require a daily delivery on Railroad in J
order to give the shipper a chance to reach the marketsl Drops in prioea would damage his oh noes w
axle be charged to his loss and deteriment.
NOW THEREFORE be it resolved by the said Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County
f
� .
that they respectfully urge and petition said Public Utilities Commission not to grant
either the application of C. B. Rader and 0. A. Rule or of Luie A. Ammerman and that tbpy
further urge that the said application of the D&RGW Railway company be held of no foroe
-...,, or effect and that the said railroad company continue operations of mixed trains Nos. 229
and 230 between Glenwood Springs and Aspen, Colorado as heretofore.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED TWAT a copy of this reablution be sent to the Publio Utilities
Commission of the State of Colorado.

M.M.Neihardt County Clerk & Recorder Aspen, Colorado Dear Mr.Ae thardt:
In answer to your letter of September llth, 1937, in which you ask for an opinion on the
olaima submitted by Pat Abasoal and Al Edstrom for servioes as watchmen; on the Newman prope l y
in June and July, 1937, please be advised that after careful examination of the statu ,I fin
no authority for the sheriff to employ a watchman, exoept in oonneotion with Certain • 'I
oases arising out of a pending suit. These claims do not show any such suit was pending, and
do not find any other statutory provisions for the payment of the claims.
From the statements oontaiaed in your letter, and the face of the olaims, oopies of which 'I

II Roads Fund, provided that a like amount be appropriated by the State Highway ,Department for said
4 purpose. . ,
The Board having instructed the Clerk to obtain* the opinion of tne District Attorney relative
to certain fees of the Sheriff the following letter was addressed&ito.the District Attorney. I
October 7, 1937. l+ir. Frank Delaney 4istrict Attorney Glenwood Springs, Colo. .
,Dear Sir: I am enclosing a copy of the claim of Frank Bruin for his services as Sheriff and
other items which the Board has instructed me to submit to you for your opinion.
1 The point in question is the second. item, viz: ,
"Two prisoners to Canon City 314 miles 62.80. " ,
It seems the law provides that the sheriff is entitled to 105/per mile (or is it 854?) for his
trip both going and returning; that he is also entitled to 20¢ per mile for prisoner for the
trip from Aapen to ,Canon City only (not returning). Now, if the Sheriff takes two prisoners at
once, is he entitled to 209' per mile one way or 40¢ (20/ each) per mile one way?
1 As I understand it, the Sheriff is entitled to a salary of 41800.00, per year, providing his
fees aggregate that amount. ,
Are the items "releasing ", Prisonera l,ileage, His'.own mileage, Investigation and Opening Courtt
!all "Fees "?
1 Are Auto hire Meals, and Board and Janitor something else - -- -not to be considered in the 0m..
41800.00 salary?
Should he make a monthly report to the Commissioners?
' Should he turn over all fees to the Treasurer and receive a warrant for his pay?
Yours truly M. 4. Ne ihardt Clerk. N.... ,
In reply to the above letter the following letter was received and read and ordered incorporated
in the minutes:
Frank Delaney District Attorney Ninth .District Glenwood Springs, Colo. October 18, 1937
M. M. Neiha rdt County Clerk & Record-Mr Aspen, Colorado Dear Sir:
Your letter dated October 7th, 1937, requesting this office for an, opinion on the right of
the Sheriff of Pitkin County to collect certain items included in the bill which he has sub -
witted under date of September 30th, 1937, is at hand. In my opinion, the sheriff is
entitled to collect the item of 462.80. He is entitled to 20cents per mile for each prisoner
taken to Canon City. The correct way ,of calculating this mileage is: Transporting two prison -1
ers to Canon City, 157 miles, at 40 cents per mile. The result is the same.
In regard to the mileage the sheriff is entitled to collect, it is my understanding that he
is entitled,to collect 10 cents a mile, for his fee, out that mileage to cover expenses is limit-
ed to 8 cents per mile. the sneriff's mileage for auto hire is apparently oalculated at the
rate of 8 cents per mile and is therefore correct. The item "Releasing (2) Rackets" does not 1
appear in the statutory list of fees. It is probably intended for committing and discharging
each prisoner. If so, it should be limited to 75 cents per prisoner. this item and the miles e
for transperting,prisoners and for service of mittirnus and opening of court are all fees and
are included and calculated with the gums earned to make up the salary of 41800 per year. The
items of investigation, auto hire, amounts paid out for meals and board and janitor are expenses
and are not included in the salary, or rather in the fees for which the sheriff must account for
the purpose,of making up his salary. .
The sheriff should make a monthly report to the Board of County Commissioners, but is not ret
quired to pay to the County Treasurer fees earned by him until the amount of those fees are in
excess of his salary for that year. ,
In that event he is only required to tern in the excess. Trusting foregoing is the in-
. formation you desire,- I am Yours truly Frank Delaney H. D. FD:HE
Board,having instructed the Clerk to obtained the opinion of the District Attorney relative
to the propriety of making part payment on the principal and total payment of interest to date

Frank Delaney District Attorney Ninth District Glenwood Springs, Colo. October 18,1•37
M. M. Neihardt County Clerk & Recorder Aspen, Colorado Dear Sir:
I have your letter of Ootooer 7t17, 1937, in which you request an opinion from this office in
regard to the right of the County Commissioners to pay installments of the purchase price of a
tractor purchased in March, 1936. The question now is whether the county has the right to pay
part of the purchase price of this traotbr under the county's 1936 budget out of the funds I
allocated to "The State Special Road Fund." I assume this means out of funds oudgeted for stale
aid construction or state aid maintenance, amounting in the aggregate to 422,000.00 .
In my opinion, the payment of the purchase price of a tractor which has already been purchas
does not properly Dome within the meaning of either the words "construction" or "maintenance. "
In other words, the comoty owed an open account for machinery theretofore purchased. The only I
item which in my opinion would properly cover that sort of an item is the one carried as "Coup i lk
Road Construction, Maintenance: Machinery, Supplies, Equipment, Bridges Buildings, Labor, et:."
It is therefore my opinion that the warrant should oe drawn against the 418,000 budgeted for
that purpose, or the flied in which that sum is carried.
Until there is a decision of the Supreme Court on the question of tat is properly included
in expenses of construction and maintenanoe, the question is probably douotful. However, the
above is my opinion on the proper construction of the law as it now ixists. Your truly,
Frank Delaney H. 41. FD:HE

viding for a tax levy of 4 mills on each one dollar of assessed valuation of all sheep and
goats, except those in feed lots. '
"I find that the last General Assembly amended the Act to read "6 mills" instead of 4 mil s -
