In proceedings before county commissions, the commissioners or any party whose interests are being determined may require that all the evidence introduced be reported by a competent stenographer and when so reported the evidence shall be transcribed and shall become a part of the record in the case. The party requesting the stenographic record is liable for the costs thereof if the matter is decided against him and the county commission may require him to give security for the costs before ordering the stenographic record.
