,..,or county from the report of the Board
:, Suoervisors, published in the Calaveras
csroniele 1t is ajust and equitable arrange
-. and we have no doubt it will be salts
G,,orr TO citizens of both counties. We
commend the spirit of the compromise.
IN accordance with an arrangement and
,rreoment entered into, between the Board
a9 Snneryisors of Calaveras county, with
P,ord of Supervisors of Amador county, the
Treasurer of Calaveras county is hereby au-
tborized and required to receive from the
Treasurer of Amador county any legal evil
donrp Of indebtedness of Calaveras county,
Iat he may present and offer in payment of
Auditors Warrant Nc l03, of Amador
county held by Calaveras county, and receipt
for the same.
The Board improve the present occasion
ia briefly refer to their proceedings in relation
TO the debt due from Amador county. This
5obt had involved both counties in tedious
and expensive litigation for two years, and
even after the decision of our highest judicial
tribunal, there was no more substantial hope
Of its final settlement than when proceedings
were first instituted.
Animated then, by wish to avoid further
filtration and to realize the large sum of
money due u.s. the Board adopted plan, by
which, each county conceding to the other
what common sense and common interest de-
manded the debt will be gradually paid
We have agreed to receive from Amador
county in payment of the debt, our own
county warrants, and the Board of Superyi-
sors of Amador county have assessed tax
Of 80 cents on the 500 to meet its payment,
which added to a portion of its general fund,
will rapidly liqudate our demand. The
equity, if not indeed the necessity Of this
we trust will be readily seen and
approved, its tendency not only being, to
bring money into the public purse, but mean
while, by aifording new market for the sale
Of our warrants, will greatly enhance the
