Each public weigh master shall have the power to appoint all necessary deputies to tend to such scales, but each such deputy weigh master shall furnish a bond in the same sum and conditioned in the same manner as that furnished by the public weigh master. Each such deputy weigh master or public weigh master appointing him shall pay to the Village Clerk the sum of $20 for an annual license fee as such deputy weigh master. Each public weigh master shall be answerable for any and all acts of such deputy weigh master in connection with the weighing of any commodity over the scale or scales of such weigh master; provided that such responsibility on the part of the public weigh master shall not relieve the deputy weigh master of liability for his own acts. Any public weigh master shall have the right, at any time after the appointment of a deputy by him, to cancel such appointment, and upon cancelling such appointment, it shall be the duty of such public weigh master, immediately to notify the Village Clerk that the appointment of such deputy has been cancelled, and thereupon such deputy shall cease to have any authority to weigh any commodity on the scales of such weigh master.
