missioners were present at the regular
monthly meeting held last Monday.
After reading and approving the min.
utes of the previous meeting, the Board
was ready for business.

Tailor, who has been county charge on
small stipend for long time, was con.

and his name was ordered stricken from
the list of indigents entitled to support.
The bond of Geo. w. Lee, $1,000, Jus.
tlce OF the Peace at. Bunkerville, with J.
8. Huntsman and Geo. Allen as sureties,
was approved.
Two petitions were presented from
Helene, both numerously signed. mum.
Der OF residents having signed both pa.
pers. asking that Justice of the Peace
be appointed for that place. One petition
designated the name of J. A. Denton, the
other Of Samuel Reed. as desirable
party for the appointment. These Hele-
mites recognized the order of the Board
made two months ago abolishing the Office
OF Justice at Helene, as valid, though
the township itself was not also abolish
ed. If the Commissioners can abolish
any one office and call for the resignation
OF the incumbent, they can do likewise
in any other case. Al matter Of fact
the powers of the Board do not extend
SO far. In the matter of appointment,
however, after some discussion, Samuel
Reed was appointed to the office, since he
is always at Helene, while Mr.. Denton 5
