Ara Unfortunate Man.

Fruitpest inspector, ID. Jones, who was
lately appointed to that position, having
been requested to resign by the Police Com
misioners, yesterday rendered his resigna-
tion in accordance with their wishes. Major
Jones was formerly police officer and was
requested to resign because of some charges
brought against him which affected his
morality. The long and short of the whole
matter did not amount to row of rims. and
would never have been made q means OF
preventing man from earning living,
had 1t not been that a morning cOntempor-
ary saw fit to make sensational and highly
coiored report of the occurrence. The Police
Com missi0ners disliked very much to part
with Jones who was an efficient and hard
working officer both as policeman and a
fruit pest inspector, but such pressure has
been made to bear upon them that they p e.
ferred to let him resign.

A NEW ARHANGEmENr.
Probable Abolition of Pacific
Coast Passenger Agencies.

SAN FRANCISCO, october ga prominent
railroad man who has just arrived from the
East states that the general passenger agents
of the trunk lines have almost come to an
agreement with K. H Ford, of the Pennsyl-
vania Central, to abolish their agencies on
the Pacific coast, the new arrangement to
go into effect either on the list of November
or the LIST of December. A proposal to abol-
ish the agencies of 10 va lines, it is alleged,
also came up for discussion and althou h
several of the roads were both willing and
anxious to transact business without the
Pacific coast agencies, others preferred to
maintain them and the motion fell through
on that account. AS these are stated to have
been some of the motives for a meeting of
general passenger agents to be held in this
city on the 26th inst, 1t is rumored that it
will not now take place.

what VIII They DO with 1t.


EDITOR HERALD;--I see that the Supervi-
cors have embraced twenty cents as road
tax in the levy for 1ss6-s7. What are they
going to do with 1t?
A month or SO ago they distributed money
received from the railroads to the several
road district funds. What has become OF
that?
There is not road in the county in de
cent condition. II they can make no useful
disposition of money derived from the road
tax why do they continue from year to year
to oppress their tax ridden people with new
assessments. The road from Los Angeles
to Pasadena is almost impossible. 1t is
very unsafe. 1t is disgrace to the county,
has been SO for years gone by, will continue
to be SO for years to come. IL will, proDa.
oily, never be pnt in decent condisioH until
some of the parties who have long and con-
tinuously psid enormous taxes for that por-
pose, shall put their hands in their pockets
and pay to have II improved.
There Is too much OF that sort of double
taxation is this county. ROADSTER.
