The Board of Supervisors were
in session last week, and accepted
the splendid piece of levee work
recently completed by Mr.. w. E.
Roper. This levee will be a
great accommodation to the citl-
zens of our county who reside on
the South side of Yocona River.
The gentlemen who compose the
present Board of Supervisors
have at all times endeavored to
serve the county to the best OF
their ability. At present, the
financial condition of our county
is not encouraging, but will doubt
less be all right in a few months.
This heavy strain upon the public
purse has been brought about by
the recent crimes committed i'll
our county, but in no way are
these gentlemen responsible for
this condition of affairs. They
have economical in the use OF the
county funds as much as possible,
and made many valuable improve
ments since they have been III
office.
