struction of Road of Which Every
body Shall be Proud.

The board of supervisors yesterday
Canvassed the returns Of the election
held recently on the question of estab-
fishing a special road district north of
the city. extending along each side Of
Central avenue for a quarter Of a mile
and as far out as the Arizona canal
As has been announced. the election
resulted as follows: For the district. -
votes: against. . votes. Most Of those
who voted in the negative did So as
they explained. not BECAUSE they were
not in favor of the district. but be
cause they believed that the project
had not been given sufficient consider
alton. The vote By the way. included
all the electors of the proposed district
except three.
The next step was the appointment
by the board of supervisors Of board
IF trustees Of the district and those
appointments were made yesterday as
follows: George II. Hahn for a period
Of three years. Gordon Tweed. two

The trustees will shortly hold a
meeting for organization and it is un-
derstOod that they Will call a mass
meeting for a general discussion OF
ways and means for the construction
Of a boulevard from the city to the
canal. The law under which the spec
ial district has been formed author
ICES the levy of a tax for the purpose
Of road construction but il is limited
To rate insufficient for the building
such a road as il desired.
II has been proposed. though not au-
thoritatively. that congress at the
next session be asked for authority To
bond the district for q sufficient sum.

threshed out later. II is determined
though. that there shall be a stretch

The board of supervisors yesterday
disposed of a matter which has been
giving a good deal Of trouble lately,
the Lchi road ovorseeIship. O. A.
Wing. vino had been appointed to that
office. resigned some time ago and
quickly following his resignation there
were two applications. one by a man
by the name of Jones ana the other
by man of the name of Sanders.
Mr. Sanders had the powerful back
ing of Mr.. Wing. who. though retir-
ing from the office himself. was de-
sirous of seeing the reform policies he
had inaugurated carried out and 50
tried Ia dictate the selection II his
successor. He wanted man of his
own stripe. i'm the Office. one who he
knew would not be controlled by cor
rupt and powerful corporations. but
who would see that the people got 4
square deal
The influence OF Mr.. Wing might
have prevailed but for one thing II
was charged that sir. Sanders was not
a legal citizen of the road district or
for that matter Of the county. and so
could not hold any office. appOintive
or elective reference To- the great
register showed that where his nam"
ought To have been there was va
cancy and District Attorney Billiard.
To whom the matter was appealed. de
cided that Mr. Sanders was not eli
gible. Thus the work of the board
was greatly simplified and Mr.. Jones
was appointed.
After the disposition Of this affair
the board visited the poor farm. which
II found To- be In fair condition. The
inmates appeared To be well fed and
well kept. at least there We're no com
plants. There was an apparent need
Of paint and white wash about the
place. but that will be shortly attend

DOES NOT APPLY
IN THE RATE CASE
Judge Pritchard Tries His Hand
at Interpretation of the
Federal Constitution.

Asheville, n. c., Aug. 27.-The decision
of Federal Judge Pritchard in the rate
case of the Southern Railway against the
state corporation commissioners and at
torney general of North Carolina. an
nOunced today, uDhOlds the Jurisdiction
of Pritchard's court in the issuance of the
recent injunction against the states Of
ficialS during the railroad controversy
and declares the suit not within the
meaning of the eleventh amendment TO
the federal constitution.
That amendment prohibits the federal
judicial power from extending to suits
brought against a state by citizens of an
other state. Pritcha-d holds that a state
legislature cannot so frame an enactment
as to deprive any citizen of the right
vouchsafed him by the federal constitu-
ton and does not possess power Ito de
priVe this court Of its Jurisdiction, and
the sooner those questions are definitely
determined the better for all concerned. ,
The decision says: 1T is inconceivable
that a United States court should be pow
erless to afford a remedy to one who
seeks TO assert the rights guaranteed by
the constitution. Those who were Re
spOnsible for the adoption of the eleventh
amendment never dreamed it could be
used as a means of deprivinE citizens of
substantial rights conferred by the federal
constitution
The court holds that the state corpora
ton commissioners are still charged with
the duty of making rates, the only limi-
tation being that they shall not make a
rate in excess of Pa cents a mile.
