supervisors Asked to Help the River I'm
proyement Project.
At yesterdays session of the Beard OF
Supervisors a committee from the City
Board Of Trade, consisting of E K. Alsip,
VIM. Ingram, Jr., and Sparrow Smith, ap-
peared and asked the Board to make an
appropriation of $500 toward carrying out
the purposes OF the River improvement
Convention that has been callei to meet in
this city on the 9th instant.
The necessity for the appropriation was
explained by Mr. Alsip. He said it would
doubtless be deemed advisable by The Con-
vention to send a delegation to Washing.
ton to lay the matter properly before Con-
gress and labor with that body to take
action locking TO the complete restoration
OF the Sacramento river.
1t was suggested by Supervisor Tebbets
that Sacramento should be represented in
the Convention by men owning property
along the river
Mr.. Ingram replied that he, for one,
would willingly resign if the Supervisors
should see fit 10 appoint some such person
in his place, and Mr.. Smith expressed sim
liar sentiments.
supervisor Russ Stlu LlS river question
was one that concerned all the people,
even the entire State.
Mr.. Aisip said that now was The time to
act He had letter from Congressman
Clunie, and Endorsed by Senator Hearst,
urging the people of this county to exert
themselves at the coming Convention and
keep the matter before the people, as well
as Congress.
Supervisor Greer thought that The Board
would be doing the right thing to appro,
pirate money 10 send delegates to Congress
if there seemed TO be reasonable hope of
getting Congress to undertake the work of
retaining the river.
Supervisor Bates also spoke in favor of
the proposition. He said the restoration of
the river was something that should net
longer be delayed.
President Ross informed the committee
tina, the Board was unanimous in favor of
granting the desired assistance. The Su-
pervisors, he said, would go as far as they
lawfully could to promote the good work
in view.
The committee then withdrew.

wants judgment in the same sum as above
and also for $500 damages
Again, Green alleges that he leased of
Gardner the privilege to maintain a res
taurant at the track for 2 period of thirteen
months from July 8 1889, at rental of
$40 per month, except during the month of
September, when the rent was to be $500.
1t was stipulated that nobody else was TO
keep g restaurant there during September.
Plaintiff says in his complaint that he
paid the $40 per month. as agreed, up TO
September, aud on the 18Th of that month
paid $3.50 on the rental for September. but
that Gardner allowed other eating stands
ODE kept atthe Park, and that one Rafaello
Gris reduced the price OF meals from 90
to IS cents, thereby compelling plaintiff TO
do so, 10 his great loss, as he had con-
tracted for the privilege on the basis of so
cents per meal. He feels himself damaged
to the extent of $500 in This transaction. He
also boarded six gate-keepers, for which
he received nothing, while he bad to pay
at the gate for his own help. He calculates
that SOS would about square these items
of loss.
His claims against Gardner, summed
up, amount to: Firs, $500 paid on the
lemonade privilege and 1920 damages for the
destruction OF the lease second, $3.50 paid
on the second lease and $270 paid for rent;
third, S60S damages suffered BY loss of the
restaurant lease and for COSTS of suit

The Fish Commissioners and Their Depu-
ties Attending to Business.
The good work of the State Board of Fish
Commissioners goes steadily on. Presi-
dent Reuter- and his colleague Mr.. Har-
vey, have inspired their deputies with some
of their own zeal, and the latter are doing
good work, both among The fish vandals
and the deer slayers. The creatures who
have been living at the expense of law
abiding people for years-the Greeks and
Chinese along the rivers and bay, and the
long haired, lazy fellows who inhabit the
hills for the purpose of killing deer at all
seasons-have apparently about reached
the ends of their ropes.
The present Commission has waged such
an energetic war upon all who deal in con-
traband deer-skins that the latter have
| come to realize the fact that they cannot
afford to risk their regulations BY receiving
in trade hides taken in an unlawful man
ner. Such business is becoming disreputa-
bic, and decent men are washing their
hands of it.
The deputies Of the Commission are now
showing great activity in counties where
the deer Jaw was never before observed.
Deputy A. I. Smith, of Humboldt county,
espSciallS, mas peen uolDS ROou WOrk. Last
month he caused the arrest of the members
of the firm Of Davis & Davis, of Fortuna, for
having illegal deer skins in their posses
sion, and E. s. Philips, a Rhoneryille
merchant, pleaded guilty to the charge of
having deer skins in his possession not
showing the sex of the animal, and was
fined $50
Referring TO the former case, the Hum
boldi Times says: while search warrant
was being procured to search the premises
of Davis & Davis, of Fortuna, Deputy Fish
Commissioner Smith kept an eve on the
back entrance of the premises, and caught
young man named Elliott, in the employ
Of Davis & DAVIS making his escape with
hurdle of deer skins under his arm. Mr..
Smith marched the young man with his
deer skins into Justice Clouds office, where
he pleaded guilty and was fined $50

IT is very gratifying that the Lick OBJ
servatory expedition to observe the recent
eclipse of the sun vas successful. All
the other astronomical expeditions failed,
though England, France, Germany and
Russia sent out large parties. The Cali
fornia expedition went to the city of
Paramaribo in Dutch Guinea, situated
about eight miles up the mouth of the
Surinam river. The expedition assembled
the river to the point where the best OBJ
servation was possible, and there succeeded
in taking such Photographic and tele-
scopic observations as were desirable.
The party was enabled to make the trip
and take the observations through the lib
erty of Colonel Charles F. Croker of San
Francisco, who volunteered to furnish all
the means necessary to equip the party,
pay its transportation, and 10 insure a sue
cessful expedition. 1t must be especially
gratifying to that gentleman to know that
the Troffer on his part has resulted so ben
efcially to astronomical science, but all
Californians will also take pride in the
fact that, while others failed, the Califor-
mia party attained the end desired.

BoULANGER has bobbed up again. The
shrug of the shoulders has not, evidently,
crushed him. But that he will effect any,
thing by his pompous talk about CONSOLE
dating the Boulangist strength in France
is bosh. He will do nothing of the kind,
for there is not cohesive quality enough
in it to consolidate. What there is of it
is composition Of disafected Republicans,
scheming socialism, plotting Imperialism,
hopeful Bourbonism, and dream of royal
ism. Perhaps few other isms enter into
the ola podrida, but these are enough to
turn the dainty French stomach.

with a determination to WIN the fight.
They express themselves confident of sue
cess, and claim that they will be able to
divide the negro vote, on which
the opposition is said to be counting.
One Of Col. Olmstead's friends
said yesterday that public meet
ing will probably be held a few
nights before the election, at which
prominent speakers will show the voters the
necessity for change in the office of county
treasurer.
Treasurer Russell is himself making an
active canvass and is assisted by a number
OF lieutenants, who are using their best en-
desvors. Mr.. Russell is equally as confident
of reelection as the friends of Col. Ohm
stead are of his election. At the same time.
he does not propose TO relax his efforts in
vote-getting until the polls close on the day
Of the election.
Several well-known politicians say that
1t will be one OF the closest races ever run
for an office IN chatham county, and that
the winning candidate, whoever he may te,
