secute-The List of Names Re-
ported Yesterday and
Action Taken.

The board OF supervisors YESTERDAY
had report by detectives employed tt
ferret out illegal registrations, and tool
action looking toward the prosecution o
such persona.
Their efforts to dig up evidence have
been at the instance of the central com
mittees OF both parties and ie not in the
partisan interest of either:
The work OF the detectives was such
as to justify their employment. Anum-
Der OF instances have been found by
them so far, aud the result of the inves-
tigation is embodied in a typewriter
report. After considering the report,
the board adopted the following resolu-
ton:
1t appearing to the board from reports
OF detectives employed by the board to
investigate illegal registrations upon the
great register that many such fraudulent
and false registrations have been made
therefore, on motion OF Supervisor
Francisco and carried. it is ordered by
the board that said report be filed, and
referred to the district attorney, with
instructions to prosecute any and all
persons, including the deputy county
registration clerks who may be found to
be knowingly implicated therein.
