BIDS FOR ROAD SPRINKLING.
The Supervisors Yesterday Declared Them
All OH.
Under the New Law Roads Come
Under the Supervision of Local
District Trustees.

The matter of awarding contracts for
country road sprinkling on the bids
submitted a week ago was taken up by
the Board of Supervisors yesterday.
Supervisor Curtis was opposed TO the
board taking any action until the Dis
trict Attorney could be present and ad-
wise the board He (Curtis) did not be-
lieve the board had the power at pres
ent to award these contracts.
Supervisor Dreman moved that the
Supervisors from the Fourth and Fifth
Districts be empowered to have all the
pumps, windmills and tanks placed in
good condition for work, and it was or
dered
District Attorney Ryan called on the
board and was asked whether or not
under the law, it had any right to
award contracts for sprinkling.
Mr.. Ryan replied that the new Clark
road law is now in force, and under
that law the board could not enter into
contracts of that character This law
changes the whole road system. The
Attorney General has given the opin-
ion that Boards of Supervisors have the
power to appoint Trustees to see that
road duties are performed. The Clark
law requires new road districts to be
organized, and all work therein shall be
under the direction of local Trustees.
He would advise the board to organize
these districts as soon as possible, and
not to make any contracts at this time.
The only question, said Mr. Ryan, is
as to the conStitutiOnality of the Clark
law. But be that as it may, the law is
now in effect, and Supervisors should
be governed by it in their action re-
garding roads.
Supervisor Dreman then moved that
all the bids for road sprinklng be de-
clared off, and that the Clerk return to
the bidders the moneys deposited. 1t
was so ordered.
Mr.. Ryan informed the board that
work that is absolutely necessary could
be done until District Trustees are ap-
pointed.
Chairman Jenkins said he considered
road sprinkling to be absolutely neces-
sary but Mr.. Ryan said it could not be
so insisted. Beside, contractors might
not be able to collect their money
At the request of the board, District
Attorney Ryan read the opinion recent
ly rendered by the Attorney General,
and which, he said. was submitted to
the board as his opinion.
Further action in the matter was
then postponed till next Wednesday.

Won Tausch has had powerful abet
tors and who they have been is still a
deep mystery at Berlin. Hthough he
has received but a small salary, he has
lived like a prince and his debts, how
ever large, have always been paid by
an unknown hand. Within a year, by
his detestable Vaccinations, Won Tausch
has driven out two Ministers and has
been signally decorated by the Emperor.
Count Herbert Bismarck, the Duke of
Gunther a brother-in-law of the En-
peror and Count Won Gutenberg are
among the mighty protectors of Won
Tausch Though the rottenness and
moral terpitude of the Berlin secret po-
lice have been revealed in the trial, it
is believed much has been withheld re-
garding the intrigues of high dignita-
ries to queer a number of past and

DOVE SHOOTING.
The Open Season Does Not Begin Till
july 18th.

In spite of the fact that the Record
Union" has stated several times that
under the game law passed by the Leg
lslature last winter the open season for
dove shooting does not commence till
July 10TH number of parties are
making preparations to go out on July
Ist, as under the law for the past two
years.
1t would be we'll for all to remember
that the close season has been extend
ed fifteen days, as those who go out be-
fore July 10Th will be very liable to
come into collision with the Game War
den, to their sorrow, and cannot well
plead Ignorance after the fact Of the
change of law has been published so
often. Ignorance of the law in any case
cannot be pleaded as a bar to punish
ment for its Infringement, but where
the substance of the law has been made
known to the public repeatedly through
the press. it would be still less an ex-
