ADVISES SUPERIOR COURT RULING IN SIBLEY CASE But Atty. Gen. Light Does Not Think Sheriff Is “Employe.” Attorney General John H. Light has no desire to interpret the scope of the workmen's compensation law, either In regard to teachers in the employ of the state, or any state of- ficial coming under its provisions. In an opinion delivered to Comptroller Daniel P. Dunn he makes this clear. The case in question is the claim of the widow of Preston B. Sibley, sheriff of Windham- county. The at- torney gegeral advises Comptroller Dunn to réfuse to allow the claim, in order that the case may be. taken to the superior court. - He advances sev- eral reasons, however, to support his personal belief that the sheriff was not included in the provisions of the law. The -énion is as folows: Dear S!r:‘ have your recent favor in which you say “I am in receipt of a letter from the attorney for the dependent of the late sheriff of Windham county, deceased, asking for an agreement under the werkmen’'s compensation act for com- pensation for damages resulting from ‘the death of sald sheriff. *“ls a county sheriff a person who has entered into™ or works under a| contract of service with the state and therefore entitled to compensation from the state?” I am of the opinlon that should decline to recognize the claim for compensation growing out of the accidental death of the late Sheriff which this season of delicate effects has .produced.

It is doubtful to say the least, whether a sheriff i§ a “workman” or an “employe,” In the sense in which those terms are used in the work- men’s compensation act. It has been held that an “employe™ refers to one whose employment s merely contracted for, and differs from an officer, whose function ap- pertains to the administration of gov- ernment. (Moll v. Sbisa 51 La. Ann. 290.) This is In keeping with the definition given In the statute, name- ly “Employe”: shall mean any person who has entered Into or works under any contract of service or apprentice: ship with an employer. Every sheriff is a public officer, and a public office s never conferred by contract. It finds its rource and limi- utum- In some act or expression of vernmental ‘power. - (Hall v. wllwnlin, 108 U. S. 5.) “Where an individual has been ap-/| pointed or elected in a manner pre- scribed by law, has a desi title given him by law, and mrcus- functions concerning the public as- signed to him by law, he garded as a public officer. v. Justicec 33 Ga. 336.) And it may be ‘clalmed algo; uu a sheriff is a county official “in the meaning of the compensation act. The . fact that his is paid by the state is not conclusive. He is chos- en by the county, and, if a public| officer, may e said to be enploy.a, “his -n’loymzne comes from eulmt‘v, and not from the state. is desirable to have the court pass nn the qnnflom invoived in the $ng claim, and to define the the workmen's , Very + _inl,; ment can be made just as attractive—with little (much less than lath and plaster) by using Fiberlic wall board.
