the Supervisors.

There is considerable Indignation being
manifested by the property-owners and
citizens along the line of the two county
roaGs-San Bruno and Mission-at a re-
cent order Of the Finance Committee of
the Board of Supervisors. To meet other
pressing financial obligations that COM

displacement of The taxpayers for many
years at work on the county roads by the
substituting of convict labor. To this end
the $4,000 appropriation set apart last
July for the repair of these thoroughfares
was ordered applied to other uses.
This action has aroused the Indignation
of the taxpayers of the sections named and
expressions of disapproval against the ac-
tion of the Supervisors are being mani
tested.
The City Fathers are derided and the
placing of prisoners in charge of armed
guards on city highways is exceedingly dis
tasteful to "A number of the taxpayers.

signed in the localities mentioned. The
petition will be presented at the Super

The popular idea that water is
purified by freezing has been again
disproved by recent careful expert

amount of impurity retained by the
ice is a.. per cent. of organic mat

Objectionable of the two, the case is
worse than was formerly supposed.
