LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
"rHAr BorHgRsoHE BILL. /"

the expressions of one of the ''big four"
tending to show that tbs 81, 702 was paid be-
cause Of the Endorsement of the Allardt bill
by Attorney General Hart as correct. Sat-
urday morning there appeared in the RECORD
UNION distinct statement taken from Mr..
Harris lips, expressly denying that he had ap-
proved the bill in any sum whatever, or made
any Endorsement thereon, and, Furthermore,
that he had plainly told the Board of Super
Visors that he had not approved the bill, and
urged than, prior to payment, If they had
acted upon the assumption or supposition Of
his approval, that they would reseind their
action, and advising them that they had the
legal power 90 TO do. He denied that he had
attached any statement to the bill, hut,
on the contrary. had expressly refused to do
so, and had expressly refused to approve the
bill as to the amount, or any amount Of value,
leaving that matter purposly out of his state
ment. In the face of these facts, it is now
reiterated that the Board approved the bill
because of the prior approval of Messrp Hart
and Cssdwslader. Mr.: Hart now aussinurizu,
fat and unequivocal denial of that statement,
30 far as it refers to him, and brands it as un-
true. The statement Mr.. Hart signed ap-
pears by the files to be as follows:
Mr. AIlardt made two surveys OF the American
river and Of the Gold Run and Iowa Hill mines,
previous to the beginning OF the trial. and was in
attendance at said trial, rendering important SER
vice lily until called as witness in behalf of the
plaintiff. During the adjournment for the holidays
Mr. Allsrdt again sent to Gold Run to complete
certain reconnaissance deemed essential to plaintiffs
case and upon the trial being resumed remained in
attendance thereat until called as witness in re-
buttal, on about the last day Of the trial. Dur
ing this period Mr. Allardt was engaged each day in
rendering actual and valuable service to plaintiff 8
cause and which could not, n our opinion, with
either profit or safety have been dispensed with.
A L. HART, Attorney General
GEO. CADWALADkR.
Febrcarye. 1882
When he signed the above he says it was
not attached to the demand" and, so far as
he is concerned, was unauthorizedly attached
to it subsequently,. Mr.. Allardt received
from Sacramento county, July Is, 1881 $780,
and has now been paid 81 702; total paid
him by Sacramento county, S2.O92: Had
there been . prior contract with him, it is
probable his services could have been pro-
cured for half the sum paid. The sum paid to
him is exorbitant for this county to pay.
This act of the majority in the Board of Su-
pervisors is in keeping with its present sYs-
tenn of managing the finances of Sacramento
county, and by which the people of this coun-
ty are being hseced. 1t is of a piece with the
act paying Mr. George Cadwalader S12. COO for
services as Sn attorney, when like services of
equal value could have been had for So 000
Thereby the people of Sacramento county
were cheated out of So, COD, and that is almost
the unanimous opinion of the people of the
county, who now feel that the test, as to
whether hydraulic miners can and shall be
permitted to use the rivers of the State as
places of deposit for the tailings Of their mines,
has been had at the expense Of this county,
and that Mr. George Cadwalader, as attorney
for an up-country clientage. has led this coun-
ty into the expense of making the test, and
that it was done by his procurement. The
Allardt bill was allowed and paid with indie
cent haste, and that and the Cadwslader allow
ance are examples of the truculent subserv-
iency of the majority of the Supervisors of
Sacramento couaty to the attorney they are
extravagentlv paying. These are the facts
without varnisb, and these are the opinio IS
of majority OF the people without any con-
eealment
