Don,
Using a variety of sources is always the best policy. Referrals are an inexpensive way to recruit even if you do pay a referral fee. Knowing the referring employee gives you a sense of whether or not you can trust their judgement in recommending others. If you current employee is a good organization fit, has a good work ethic, etc., the candidate referred will probably have some of those same qualities.
