SUPERVISORS RULES STAND.-Judge Arm
strong yesterday rendered decision in the
csse of Albert NJ. johnson vs.. the Board of
Supervisors oi Sacramento County. johnson
had a Judgment against the county, and de-.
sired the Board to allow his demand immedi-
ately. This the Board refused TO do, telling
him he must wait until the regular finance
day. johnson went before Judge Armstrong
and had a writ Of mandate issued to the
Board to show cause for failing to allow the
claim. Last Monday the matter was heard
and taken under advisement. Judge Arm
strong in rendering his decision said the
Bosrd of Supervisors mad claimed as an excuse
for not allowing the bill that they had adopt.
ed certain rules that such matters we're to
be considered only upon a certain day, known
as finance day Toe leading question was
as to whether the Board had authority to
make such rules, and he decided, under tha
county government bill, they undoubtedly
had. He then said ne had consulted with
Judge Mcfarland upon the subject. and they
had agreed thatlshe Supervisors had the right
to adopt such rules as they deemed necessary
of procedure, etc. In conclusion, the Judge
said that it was not an unreasonable rule for
the Board to be allowed until their finance
day." in order to ascertain whether the judg-
ment was valid upon its face, ard he, there
fore. would give them until that time. If,
however, upon that day, which occurs Deem
Der 9Th, the Supervisors fail TO allow the
claim, a case gAiuss them will be considered
already made, and they will be required to
again appear before the Court.
