ESIGNED.
The County surveyor Gives Up His
Position.

MIR. c. W. Brown, County Surveyor,
rendered his resignation to the Board of
County Commissioners Yesterday, which
resignation was duly accepted. Mr..
Brown states as his reason for r~esigning
that he has too much work on hand of his
own to attend to and he therefore cannot
afford to spend the time which it will be
necessary for him to devote in order to
properly discharge the duties of the office.
In addition to this he expects to be away
for the greater part of the coming season,
and will probably take Il trip
into Arizona and visit the Pacific
coast also and may take "a run across the
pond to Australia. Mr.. Brown was
nominated as a candidate for County
Surveyor once before the occasion of his
election, but declined to run. Notwith-
standing the fact of his declinatiom he
was II whether or no and came very
near being elected. Mr.. Brown is a very
competent and efficient surveyor. and
his resignation at this time is quite a loss
to the county, especially when there is so
much business on hand in his line 10 be
done within the county.

tention of the commissioners to fix up
and put in order the hospital grounds,
and trees are to be set ont in and around
the grounds during the coming season.
