The Press yesterday morning published
the note with the following comments:
"Our reply 10 the Mayors clerk was
that the Mayor could be accommodated

time and place that he might indicate.
Alter some hours the Mayors clerk
brought his reply that the time would be

worthy young Mayor will not accept our
offer to prove what we have said, or
pOogize, an offer that is all that any

the heavy rains are causing great

continue, the losses will be largely in

The rains, while they have some

AN EXTRAORDINARY DEMAND.
The Grand Jury Request the Appoint.
ment Of Utah Lawyer to Examine
Our County Affairs.

The following communication was
submitted to the Court to-day:
To Hon Judge Brodsrick of the Second Judicial
The undersigned, members of the
Grand Jury, respectfully and earnestly
request your honor to appoint Hon. J.
Is. Roseborough, of Salt Lake City,
Utah Territory, as our legal adviser,
to aid and counsel us in our nvestisa-
tons of the financial affairs of the
county of Alturas, |. T.
We are fully satisfied, from what
we already know and have good reas-
ons to believe, that thorough and
complete examination and investiga-
ton Of the most ri gid character, of the
financial affairs of the county, and the
conduct and actions of many of the
county officials since period COM
mencing January l, 1888, is demanded
and warranted at this particular time,
that justice only may be done; and il
there has been corruption aud extrav.
agance, violation of the revenue laws,
and misapplcation of the public mon
eys. as we believe has been the case.
And should we find, after a mes,
thorough and rigid examination, that
such reports are true, the present
county attorney would undoubtedly
be more or less responsible with the
County Commissioners, we think we
ought in justice to ourselves and the
people OF Alturas county, have some
one learned in the law who is a non.
resi- lent of the county and Territory,
and who is both honest and capable.
We therefore request that your
Honor appoint the Hon. !. B. Ross
borough, of Salt Lake. Utah.
The foreman of tie Grand jury:
