THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS HOLD
AN IMPORTANT NIEETING.
omces Not to be Consolidated-Openin
of Public School : A Sunday
Law-various Items of
interest

SANTA ANA, Sept. 1.-THE board of
supervisors met in regular session today
and decided that they would not consol-
idate the offices of sheriff and tax col
lector, and those of auditor and recorder.
Several of our leading citizens spoke for
and against consolidation, but the
measure was finally settled, and the Off
ces are to remain as they are. The de-
cision of the board meets with approval
from the Republicans of the county, but
it is thought by many that great saw
ing could have been made had the
offices been consolidated.
The board also bought man named
Webb ticket to Ell Paso, Texas, as he
is an INDECENT, and said that If he
could get there he would be among his
friends.
OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The public schools of Santa Ana
opened for the fall session today, and
upward of 800 children were in attend
ance today, 1t is thought by the prin-
cipal, Prof. McGinnis, that the attend
ance will reach at least one Thousand
this term. This addition shows an en-
COuIdkluk 6bat0 Ol dAdlI y IA OuA 4uClC CdbC
of population. Our public schools have
been greatly improved during the vaca-
tion, and the improvements are of a
most substantial Character. An effort
will be made to establish q kindergarten
branch of the school here. 1t is thought
that at least three hundred little folks
are eligible to attend such school, and
the benefits to be derived by such an
educational institution cannot be over
estimated.
