Daniel Flint addressed the board re-
specting the condition of the drainage

tule and willows, and Shat as it was
dry it could be cleaned out to adj

use of his team and wagons for clean

runs through his property provided
the county would furnish the labor.
Supervisor Curtis said the canal was
foul and was badly Distracted by tule

At the afternoon session Supervisor
brennan said he had decided to make
a few changes in the list of election
officers for several of the precincts in
the First Supervisor District which
list he had presented, and which had
been approved by the board.
While the principal reason for che
changes lay in the fact that the Re-
publican County Central Committee
had investigated and found that some
of the officers named were not on the
assessment roll, and as a consequence
were not eligible, Supervisor brennan
made no mention of the fact. He
merely announced that he proposed to
make the changes, and then read them
off, as follows:
First Precinct-A. J. Gerber, Slater's
Addition, to be Judge, instead of ID.
Jacobs; William Both, Arcade lodging
house, to be Judge, instead OF ii.
Shuck; r. Shannahan Hibernia Hotel,
to be Tally Clerk, instead of Joseph
Sharkey, and c. White to be Tally
Clerk, instead of H. Arnold.
Second Precinct-Jake Ginsberg, 206
J street. to be Inspector, instead of
Mark Soloman.
Third Precinct - Herman Lagos, j
street, between Third and Fourth. to
be Judge, instead of William Johnson
The board approved the changes.
Supervisor brennan also announced
that the polling place at the Fifth
Precinct, First District, will be at
523. instead of 525 street, the latter
property having been rented since MS
former return was made.

Supervisor brennan said to a Record
Union" reporter that if anybody else
wants any further changes they would
be some time getting them made

question of understanding the missing
