When any party intends to make or oppose a motion in any court and it shall be necessary for the party to have the affidavit of any person who shall have refused to make the same, such court, by order, may appoint a referee to take the affidavit or deposition of such person. Such person may be subpoenaed and compelled to attend and make an affidavit before such referee the same as before a referee to whom an action is referred to try an issue, and the fees of such referee for such service shall be three dollars per day.
