OPINIONS DIFFERED
Attorneys of San Diego and Im-
 perial Disagree on Matters

The committee sent by the board of supervisors, consisting of R. H. Clark, F. s. Webster and Porter Ferguson, to meet with the San Diego board of sup ervisors, had a conference in San Diego Wednesday. District attorney Eshelman was present. When the matter of transcribing the assessment rolls and other data necessary for the levying of taxes in Imperial county came up it caused'a great deal of discus sion as to which county should bear the expense of the work. Imperial county's attorney con- tended that the burden rested on San Diego county, but the dis trict attorney of that county held differently. Finally the board of supervisors of San Diego county decided to pay all the bills and charge the same to the account of Imperial county until an opin- ion is received from the attorney general of the state, who has been appealed to by the board of supervisors of Imperial county.
