Two Opinions Presented by County

As soon as the county commissioners con
vened yesterday afternoon County Attorney
Mahoney presented two opinions. He In
formed the board that Judges and clerks of

the effect that constables are entitled to $3
per day while serving at polling places.

ment showing the delinquent land tax be
tween the years 1859 and 18S7. Ho reported
the tax uncollectable and recommended the
cancellation of the same. The list was re
ferred to the county attorney. Tbo list shows
that on the numerous tracts there Is duo and
unpaid the sum of $28,093.77. Some of the
tracts are in the river , while others cannot bo
located.
The State street grade was again brought
up and the bondsmen of J. C. Hoot , who has
the contract , notilied'tho board that they had
commenced work on the crado. They also
asked that all estimates bo withheld from
Hoot. Tuis was referred to the county at
torney.
The bonds of the newly elected assessors
wcro nresented , read and referred.
Some weeks ago the commissioners de
cided to grade South Sixteenth street and re
move 1X1,000 yards of earth. Yesterday the
amount was Increased to 24,600. This will bo
the county's share of the gracllne.
The usual number of bills were presented ,

Since tbo first day of May Jurors and wit
nesses who have served before the coroner
have failed to receive their fees-for tholr ser
vices. This was on account of objections
raised by Chairman Anderson and Mr. Berlin.
Yesterday the matter was settled by the bills
being allowed and ordered placed in the next

Anderson and Mr , Berlin opposed the move ,
stating tnat there is no law for allowing such
fees.

Chicago. Blacksmiths by trade , they worked
and slept together. Their paths soon di
