THE SUPERVISORS.
A Few Matters Considered at Yester-
days Session.

A Few Matters Considered at Yester-
days Session.
At the meeting of the board of super
visors held yesterday morning there
were present Chairman Perry and
Messrs. Martin and Rowan.
G. Hymers was granted permission to
lay pipe line for mining purposes in
the San Francisquito canon under the
direction OF the road overseer for that
district.
Permission was also accorded to the
Whittier Land and Water Company to
run its conduit across the Ell Monte and
Puente road on condition that the same
shall be kept in good repair at all times.
A petition was received from num-
ber of residents in the San Antonio
canon, asking for an appropriation for a
road, and the clerk was directed on mo-
ton OF Supervisor Martin to correspond
with the board of supervisors of San
Bernardino county to ascertain whether
or not that body was willing to join in
making the necessary improvements.

FRUIT LABELS.
Tho East Flooded With Bogus Cali
fOrnia Products.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 30.-W. H.
Mills, of the state board of trade, who
has returned from the east, says: II
discovered that large quantities OF fruit
were being sold, labeled as California
fruit, although grown thousands of miles
away from this state. This is an evil
that for our own protection ought to be
stopped. 1t may lead to the custom Of
marking each retail package with a
copyrighted trademark. Again, there
is no proper care used in all cases in
packing fruits here, and the result is
very unsatisfactory to eastern buyers, as
well as to shippers. There is no limit
to the quantity which the east will take,
provided the fruit reaches them in good
order"
