Mr.. McGee advocated its passage and
Mr.. Vaudeville opposed it, as such re-

movas that had been invariably a source
of iudebteness and unnecessary out
lay.
He was replied to by Mr.. Furguson
Messrs. MeGee annd Burnett advoca-
ted the passage ofthe bill. as it was one
purely local in its nature
1t was finally passed by vete of 20
ayes to 4 noes.
a bill was read the third time "to
permanently fx the boundaries Of Yuba
Butte and Plumas Counties"
So we are to have an election, or ra-
ther drawing OF cuts for the county

John Reese was sent up on Monday from
Justice Shepherds Court, Wyandott, to await
the action OF the Grand Jury, for assault with
intent to kill. He went to Jail, and will prob
ably remain there until the May term of the
Court of Sessions
The expenses of this county, in boarding
prisoners has been very heavy. The jail has
been literally filled for long time, with
men who seem to enjoy tie fun of fattening
themselves at tho expense Of the tax pay
ing citizens Of the county. They are most y
Of class for whom the jail has no terrors
They eat up the resources Of the county ap-
parently, with the feeling of men who have
paid in advance for their bosrd They have
become so numerous, that it is time the evil
was abated-or at least punished with more
rigorous laws.
Would the Legislature pass law Authori-
zing the Board of Supervisors to set them al
work upon county roads, we doubt not but
that these beiligerent characters would assume
more pacific attitude towards community
They would theu be obliged to render the
county equivalent for their board, and
would be taught to feel and acknowledg the
important fact that the world does not owe
them living until they earn it.
