CITY ASSESSMEN T ROLL.
Shows a Net Increase This Year of Over
$20,000.
City Assessor Coughlan has completed his assessment roll for the current
fiscaleyear. As au evidence that he has
done thorough. work, as well as that the

being taken off the roll. In 1897 the
total assessment, including the water
works, was $906,317. This year, without the water works, it foots upto $925,

In suggésting to the people of Grass

to begin preparing for their Fourth of

properly says: “This year we should
have a rousing celebration, not a perfunetory matter-of-course affair, but
one of especial patriotic manifestation;
one in which all the people are besought to take part; a celebration worthy of the day and the nation.”
Changed Hands;
S. W. Freeman-of Elk Grove,. who
formerly cunducted the Elk Grove

to the public taste, and intends to conduct the Glenbrook as a first class resort. The new proprietor is already
arranging for the remodelling of the
front, while the interior will be repainted and repapered throughout. Mr.
Chas, Schlutius, the well known mixologist of Sacramento, will assist Mr.
Freeman in his endeavors to please all
visitors.

To Protect the Fish.
Sheriff Getchell bas swornin L. H.
‘. Watson as a special deputy to protect .
the fish in Bowman’s dam and the
streams ofthat part of the county.
They are getting very scarce owing to
the hundreds of people who are whipping .the waters there for several
months in the year. andesome parties
go so far as to kill them with dynamite.
It has become necessary to prohibit alt
fishing in Bowman for a year or two
and to see: that.none are taken from
public waters excepting in a lawful —
manner, ‘
There has also been blasting of fish
in Deer creek above this city, and as a
result the stream. is almost barren.
The scoundrels who are guilty of such
methods should be punished to the
full extent of the law.
