The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The several judges of the district courts in this state may, by order to be duly entered on the minutes, at any term of the court, appoint any attorney of the court to act as or in place of, or to assist the county attorney in any business or proceeding before the grand jury, or in court, whether there be a county attorney present at such term or not; and the person so appointed shall take the usual oath of office and shall thereupon be fully authorized to be present before the grand jury at any time when the county attorney might by law be present before that body: provided that no compensation shall be paid by the county to such person so appointed by the court to assist the county attorney, when that officer is present at the term when such appointment is made, except the same be paid with the consent of the county attorney and be deducted from the regular salary of that officer.””
