officers are not entitled to ad-
 ditional compensation for
 such compliance"
 In reference to this opinion of the Attorney General, Assistant District Attorney Utley states says the San Diego Union, that the attorney-general has quite, overlooked the important feature of the point in dispute, which is, can the county of San Diego leg ally incur a debt for transcribing the tax rolls? MT. Utley holds that it can not. As for the off cers of the county who are to perform this work, the statute does not specify who they are. Shall the coroner do the work, or shall the sheriff?
 In his written opinion to the board of supervisors, Assistant District Attorney Utley stated that if the officers of San Diego county are to furnish at their own expense copies of the as- sessment roll for the county of Imperial, then Imperial county must resort to some appropriate remedy to compel the offices to comply with the provisions of the statute. In other words lm- perial county must resort to man. da mus proceedings in the su- perior court of this county to compel the officers of this coun- ty to make the assessment roll. And then the question arises, which officers shall be proceeded against by mandamus?
 Mir. Utley stated that his office would adhere to the opinion giv- en to the board of supervisors, for it is his belief that such opin- ion correctly expresses the law.
 Imperial county has already n,lrchased the necessary blanks upon which to transcribe the rolls.
 District Attorney Eshleman was seen in regard to the matter by a Press representative Thurs day morning. He was about to leave for Calexico in the ease of the State vs. M. B. Davis and had only a moment s time to talk.
 He recalled the fact that the matter had been left to the at- torney general and the attorney general had given his opinion on the case as presented by the att torney from San Diego.
 Attorney Eshleman says it is not to be supposed that the cor oner should be called upon to perform only such duties as come under his particular office, The work of transcribing the assess ment roll of Imperial county is to be done by the county officers through whose hands the work naturally passes. Assessments in all other counties comes under the county assessors office.
 But that is not necessarily the point. When Attorney Eshle- man and the Imperial county board of supervisors were in San

for Peace in PARTY.


Trenton. Feb 6.-Sena tor-elect Briggs was
looking hale and hearty this afternoon in his
Office, and had nearly recovered from the fatigue
Of the recent campaign. He said he was natu-
rally pleased at the result Of the Seuatorship
contest He had not been a candidate he said
but had been chosen by his friends without
solicitation
Il am very anxious to see harmony restored
in the Republican party" he said, land It will
be my ambition to help bring about a restora-
ton Of peace and make the party stronger than
ever. elected without making any PROM
!ses or pledges, and can carry out any plans
that may seem to be wise without any inter
ference. and. trust. without opposition"
Mr. Briggs said It was too soon to talk about
his work at Washington. because he probably
would have no session of Congress to attend for
a year yet. In general he would say that the
great policies Of the Republican party were the
policies he believed in and would support He
would act in accordance with what in his judy
ment was best in any situation that might arise
He said he would follow a conservative. indie
pendent course.
