BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.

We. the undersigned committee, ap-
pointed by your honorable body to in
vestigate the office of board of super
ci-ors respectfully submit the follow
ing for your consideration:
Upon examination of the allowance
books for 1871, 1898, 1899 and 1900, We
find that Supervisor linus has drawn
the following fee: For the year 1877,
the sum of 1898; for the year 1898, the
sum of 4O3S; for the year 1899, the sum
of 40 s; for the year 1900 up to October
|, 5O3S. NJ Scanlon, for the year 1899,
430S; NJ. Scaulor. for the year 1907, up
to Octuber 1st, 475s.
Now, from the opinion of our district
attorney aud the honorable Judge
Sloan, We find the maximum amount
allowed each member of the board of
supervisors as fixed 10y law for counties
of fifth class shall not exceed 30 3 per
year, including salary aud mileage, and
all money drawn in excess of that
amount il drawn contrary to law. And
we recommend that the district attOr.
ney take such legal steps to have such
money illegally drawn returned to the
county treasury.
We also find that in the distribution
of public MONEYS the board of super.
visors have been excessively extrava
CANT and in many instances the counsel
of the district attorney has been ig
nored; also that in the overdrawiug OF
their salaries they have gone in direct
opposition to the legal advice of oul
county attorney. All of which is re

at Fort Worth, Texas, they sold a
car load Of their Full Cream in
competition against "Pillsbnry's
Best of Minneapolis. This sale

the Full Cream being chosen and
