posed by a member who seeks to obviate
the difficulty experienced by some of the

solved, that it is the sense of this company
that any employer refusing to give suffi
cient time to members In his employ to at
tend their military duties, at home and In
camp, is not worthy of the patronage of
the company or Its friends." Some oppo
sition to the measure was manifested on
the ground that It savored of the boycott,
but It was adopted by an almost unanimous
vote. At the close of the meeting Lieuten
ant Hannah regaled the entire company at

RIVERSIDE COUNTY
RIVERSIDE
RIVERSIDE, July 20.-(Regu!ar Corre
spondence.) The suit of Riverside county
against San Bernardino county to recover
J132.000, alleged to be due on account of
county division, the award of the commis
sioners being only $15,000, is atttraclng much
attention just now on account of the efforts
of the supervisors of the two counties to
effect a compromise, the overtures coming
from this county.
Supervisors Compton and Thompson
from the Riverside board met a like com
mittee from the neighboring county yes
terday and talked over the matter in
formatly. Supervisor Compton said this
morning that in his opinion there would
be no great difficulty in effecting a compro
mise on an eaultable basis, at least the talk
of the San Bernardino committeemen In
dicated as much.
The award made by the' commissioners
was $15,080; the amount sued for Is $132,000.
The superior court found that the award
was inequitable and ordered the commis
sioners to correct their values and make a
new award. San Bernardino county ap
pealed the case to the supreme court on a
denied motion for a new trial. Riverside
county appealed from the decision of the
superior court on the ground that the court
should have made an award on the basis
of the evidence, Instead of ordering the
commissioners to go over the ground
again,
A snag that the Riverside supervisors are
liable to encounter in this matter Is their
contract with their attorneys, R. Hough
ton of San Francisco and J. S. Chapman of
Los Angeles. They agreed to pay the at
torneys 15 per cent of all they might re
cover over and above the award of the
commissioners, and good lawyers here say

CALIFORNIA OPINION
A Spanking Alternative
Prison Director Fitzgerald deserves to
be commended for refusing to counte
nance the vuigar proposition to let Dur
rant posture before an animatlscope, in
order ftiat money-making exhibitions
may be given, and if the other directors
show favor to the proposal they should
be individually and collectively spanked
by the paddle of public opinion.—Oak
land Enquirer.
Warning to Sportsmen
The sportsmen, who go out to hunt the
timid deer should be very careful not to
violate any game law. We do not want to
have anyone defame the name of sports
man, for no true sportsman everviolates
the law. We also hope that none of them
will be guilty of pulling: a loaded gun
towards them through the brush. Fu
nerals are not cheerful things.—San Jose
Mercury.
A Lead Pencil Death
The effort of that Los Angeles deputy
sheriff, now imprisoned In New York,
to kill himself with a lead pencil, was
not successful, but if he escapes pun
ishment and goes back to his southern
home, there are numerous lead pencils
dowm that way which will be used to
accelerate his official demise, at least.—
