SANTA ANA, Dec. 17.-Ine suit recent-
" instituted by Geo. Ford restraining
the treasurer of Orange county from
paying the deputies salaries will come
up before the superior court in few
days, and its outcome will be watched
with interest. Many of the taxpayers
Of Orange county believe that too many
deputies are employed by the county
officials, and hence the suit was ipstitut-
ed. This is very small county, and
mspy in California much larger, and
doing vastly more business,r run with less
help. If it is absolutely necessary that
60 many deputies be employed, we hope
the officials will be able to show it to be
the caee, and If the present wav OF pay
ing extra help is legal, we shall soon be
set at rest on this question. Many be-
lieve the suit will have beneficial
result, no matter which way it ter
inmates.
