Gov. j. B.fWeller then appeared with ten min,

as an American citiZen-not as politician. This
sentiment met the appreciation of the crowd, q

TIE REDEMPTION FUND.-The County Treasurer
gives notice. to-day that's be will receive, from
this time to the next meeting Of the Board of
Commissioners in October, bids for the surrender
of County Warrants issued prior to the first day

and presume our readers are familiar with it. Its
principal features similar to the plan adopted
by nearly, if not quite. all of the counties in Cal

there in clearing off the county debts, and under
the operation OF the law in this county the debt

We may add here that the county is now pay
ing most of its passing expenses as they accrue
and that old warrants on the General Fund are
being paid off. Mr. ]. W.Wood gives notice to-

The Republican papers have made Il great noise
about the acts OF The last Legislature, but this
! thing W Ill soon become apparent to even the most
prejudiced that the legislation OF last Winter did
more for tue financial prosperity Of Boise county

within two years most OF the present debt Will
disappear. essessr ex*4r
