LAKE CITY NOTES We believe that Lake City is the only town in the State of California, where sheep and cattle are permitted to pasture in the streets. This condition is not only unlawful but a disgrace to any town and the attention of our District Attorney is respectfully called to the matter and the majority of our citizens hope that he will see that the law is enforced. These are not stock that have been turned on the Reserve; but stock which are turned in the streets and not taken to the reserve.
