A VICTORY FOR ORANGE.
The Supreme COURT Rules Against Lo
Angeles County.

The Supreme COURT Rules Against Los
Angeles County.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-THE su-
preme court this afternoon decided in
favor of Orange county in the suit
against it by Los Angeles county to re-
cover 1,375.42, alleged to have been
advanced the new county. The money
was used for the construction of bridge
and for other purposes. The supervisors
of Orange county refused to return it,
and the Los Angeles authorities sued for
it, but were beaten in the lower court.
The decision of the supreme court given
today plainly says that the legislature
has the power to divide county and
fairly apportion its public funds. This
was the case in the division of Los An
,geles county. and Orange county was
clearly entitled to the money awarded
it. Harrison wrote the opinion and
Paterson and Gsroutte concurred in it.
