ROAD TAX AGAIN-lt is not safe to pub
lish the proceedings of the Supervisors as en-
tered by its Clerk. In their proceedings of
March Goth, as published in the PLACER HER
AID, the order appeared that Road-Poll tax
had been levied on all able bodied men from
21 to As years. A fuss was made about it
by the Assessor, and on his word we correct
ed it. Subsequently we again examined
the order and the minutes Of the Board and
found we were right the first time, and pub
lished the fact. Again the officers "biled'
and the Chairman of the Board was sent
for, and now we learn that the Board never
made any such order as is on the book, bu.
that the County Clerk, Mr.. Sewcli manu-
factured it and spread it on the minutes.
This is gay old Clerk, to be sure. There
j. no law that suits the order, and the Board
never made such one, and yet we find it
al spread out on the minutes of the Super
visors When such a thing as this can oc-
cur what may not be the condition Of the
Clerks office? The law requires Road
Poll tax from q to so years, and the Col
lectors now think that in consequence Of this
bunging of the Clerk they will have to car
~ certified copy of the law with them.
