During the morning session. Mrs.
w. j. Robbins. wife of one of the

persons would take care of it for
them.

j. Reid, county tax collector, 1. May
field, Ell Centro justice of the
peace and Mrs. Mayfield, were call
ed to the stand as character wit
nesses for Ray D. johnson. Their
testimony was that johnson has
always enjoyed an excellent repu-
tation in this community for truth
fulness and integrity.
Yesterday afternoon character
witnesses for Carroll l.. Post and

and then Post himself took the
stand.
He Testified Shat he had ac-
quired certain real estate situated

lease the remainder. This man, he
stated was told of the California
Nevada Farming company, a big
corporation, originating in Nevada
and authorized to do business in
California. He was further told
that this corporation had the neces-
sary equipment to farm the tract.
Post further testified that he had
contacted Ray Johnosn, dictated
the terms of the lease and that
johnson had looked up the records
and found that the California-Ne-
vada Farming company was cor
poration whose articles of incor-
poration were on file here. He said
that after the lease was drawn, he
signed it and left it with johnson
to be transmitted to the corpora
tons headquarters in Carson City,

Again refusing to accede to the
demand of representative voters
from the Brawley district that they
be allowed to have the man of
their choice appointed to the va
cancy existing on the directorate
of the Irrigation District board Of
directors, Supervisors Osborne.
Best and Vencill voted against the
appointment of Charles H. Morrow
when he had been suggested by
Supervisor Graham and seconded
by Supervisor Preble yesterday.
When the time arrived to con-
slider this question again, such a
large number of Brawley people
had gathered in the supervisors
room that it was decided to hold
the meeting in larger quarters and
adjournment was taken to Judge
Thompson IS courtroom which was
not being used at the time.
Before the question was formal
ly brought to the attention of the
board. G. G. Halliday, attorney for
the board, read a letter from the
secretary of state certifying to the
fact that Adams resignation had
been received and filed in Sacra-
mento. Then another certification
from F. H. McIver, secretary of the
district board, was read stating
that similar resignation had been
received by that body.
Following this the applications OF
c. H. Morrow, Brawley, and Sam
P. Rowe, Westmorland, for the po-
sition were read. In his applica-
