SAN BERNARDINO, Dec. 1.-THE
question of county division" has been
the board Of supervisors through a
communication from the San Bernar-
dino board of trade inclosing a resolu-
ton passed by the commercial or
ganization calling the attention of the
supervisors to the situation that is
likely to develop and asking them to
take steps to counteract the move
ment.
The people fear that the consolida- =
tion of a portion of Los Angeles county
with the city will leave a portion of
that county that will be looking for
affiliation with other territory from
some source. This territory. it is ex-
pected. will be sliced off the west end
of San Bernardino county, with Po-
mona as the county seat, The people
of this county object to the taking
from them of n piece of their richest
territory.
The supervisors at the next meeting,
it Is expected, will name a large COM
mittee of influential citizens from all
sections of the county who will take
the interests of the county in hand
with view to defeating the division
plan If possible. The people in the
territory that will be affected are said
to be about evenly divided on the ques-
ton, while the balance of this county
is strongly opposed to ii.

Control of Meters
Special to The Herald


MONROVIA, Dec. 12-New water
legislation Is threatened by an ac-
ton Of the board of trustees, three of
whom are said to be agreed upon rais-
ing the rent of the irrigation receivers.
An ordinance Incorporating such
change, but leaving blank the amount
OF the increase in rent, was handed
to the city attorney last evening for
drafting
An effort to give the city control of
the water meters will also be incorpo-
rated in the new law. as 1t is framed
to charge S1250 for the water connec-
ton, at which price the meter will be
furnished. AT the present time each
consumer buys his own meter and
retains title in it, while the city is
forced to keep them in repair in order
to properly measure the water At
bond election in April a clause de-
voting considerable appropriation for
the purchase OF meters was defeated at
the polls. The ordinance will probably
bring a storm of protest from the
ranchers, whose orange groves are the
principal industry of Monrovia.
Monrovias water rate now is one of
the lowest in Southern California. The
minimum domestic rate is so cents,
which pays for 5000 gallons and under.
Each additional 1000 gallons costs 10
cents. The irrigation rate is so cents
