The judge of the district court may present a claim against the estate of a decedent, for allowance, to the executor or administrator thereof; and if the executor or administrator allows or rejects the claim, he must, in writing, present the same to the county clerk of the county, who shall thereupon be substituted in the settlement of said estate in place of the judge of the district court, as provided by law, and the judge of the district court presenting such claim, in case of its rejection by the executor or administrator, or by such county clerk, acting as judge, has the same right to sue in a proper court for its recovery as other persons have when their claims against an estate are rejected.
