Big Valley Township .- Supervisors District No. 2, and bounded as follows: Beginning at the highest point on Cobb Mountain, at the south- west corner of Lower Lake Township; thence following the township line of Lower Lake Township as heretofore defined, northerly to Clear Lake ; thence across the lake, following the Lower Lake Township line to the north-west corner of Lower Lake Township; thence westerly along the ridge between Alters and Woodwards to Clear Lake; thence across said lake in a direct line to a point known as Peaks Point; thence in a north-west- erly direction, in a direct line to the gap of the hills south of Ramsdale's rancho; thence following said ridge, south-westerly to the top of the dividing ridge separating the waters of Clear Lake and Scotts Valley ; thence follow- ing said ridge north-westerly, to a point one-half mile below the outlet of Blue Lakes ; thence across said outlet to a ridge ; thence following said ridge in a westerly direction to a point on the line dividing Lake and Mendocino Counties, about one-half mile east of Dalton's cabin ; thence along said county line south-easterly to the place of beginning.
Upper Lake Township .- Third Supervisor's District, and is bounded as follows : Beginning at the north-east corner of Lower Lake Township on the county line; thence northerly to the summit of Hulls Mountain; thence west in a direct line to Mount Sanhedrim ; thence southerly, following the summit of the ridge dividing the waters of the Russian River on the west and Clear Lake on the east, to a point on said ridge one-half mile east of Dalton's cabin ; thence south-easterly along the northern boundary line of Big Valley {Township to Peaks Point; thence along said township line of Big Valley to the place of beginning.
Knoxville Township .- Although the organization of this township does not follow in chronological sequence, yet it is given here for the sake of

systematizing our work. This township always remained a portion of the First Supervisor's District. In 1872, the boundary line between Napa . and Lake Counties was so adjusted that the greater portion of this township was transferred to the former county. Knoxville Township was organized by the Board of Supervisors of Lake County, August 13, 1869, and the following boundaries were established : Beginning at the dividing ridge on the west- erly side of Morgan Valley, and south-east of the house heretofore known as George McMillans' house, on Soda Creek ; thence following said dividing ridge of mountains to the southerly extremity of said valley ; thence south- erly, down said ridge of mountains to the eastward of the valleys known as Jerusalem and Jericho, until the line dividing the counties of Lake and Napa is intersected ; thence easterly along the dividing line between Lake and Napa Counties, to the county line dividing Lake and Yolo Counties ; thence northerly along the dividing line between Lake and Yolo Counties to Cache Creek ; thence up said creek to the dividing ridge between the waters of said creek and a branch of the same heading at or near the house formerly known as William Goldsmith's house; and thence following said ridge to the place of beginning.
SUPERVISORIAL DISTRICTS .- In 1870 the county was redistricted as to the supervisors' districts, and the census of that year taken as a basis. The boundary lines established then remain in force to the present time, as no County Government Bill has yet been passed by the Legislature under the provisions of the new Constitution. Under date of August 6, 1870, the Board of Supervisors passed the following order :--
First Supervisor's District .- Ordered that all the territory embraced within the boundary lines of road districts number one, two, six and eleven, in Lake County as now established (which territory also includes Quick- silver, Lower Lake, Excelsior, and Manhattan election districts), be and the same is now hereby formed and established as the First Supervisor's District of Lake County.
Second Supervisor's District .- Ordered that all the territory embraced within the boundary lines as now established, of road districts three, four and seven, in Lake County, (which territory also includes Coyote, Kelsey Creek, and Lakeport election districts and precincts) be and the same is now formed and established as the Second Supervisor's District of Lake County.
Third Supervisor's District .- Ordered that all the territory embraced within the boundary lines as now established, of road districts five, eight, nine, and ten, in Lake County, (which territory also embraces and includes Upper Lake, Bachelor Valley, Scotts Valley, and Long Valley election dis- tricts and precincts) be and the same is now formed and established as the Third Supervisor's District of Lake County.

Political History of Lake County.
LOCATION OF COUNTY SEAT .- Perhaps no other question has agitated the people of Lake County so much as the one of the location of their county seat, and it is safe to say that no other county in the State has been vexed and annoyed about this question as much as has Lake. The county seat of Lake County was for years a sort of a will-o'-the-wisp arrangement, shed- ding the light of its presence here to-day, but very liable to shed it some- where else to-morrow. That the reader may be able to know how true this assertion is, we will follow the sinuous course of this subject through from the organization of the county in 1861 to the final location of the seat of gov- ernment at Lakeport in 1870. The Act organizing the county was approved May 20, 1861, and the first election was held in the county on the first Monday in June of that year, at which time a vote was taken upon the location of the county seat, and Lakeport, Lower Lake, and Kelsey Creek (Kelseyville), were voted for, and Lakeport received a majority, hence was declared by the Board of Canvassers to be the future seat of government for Lake County.
From some cause or other this did not give satisfaction to the entire county, and the "pot began to boil" very shortly afterwards. In the meantime, however, the county buildings had been erected and the offices domiciled in Lakeport. Possession is considered nine points in law, hence Lakeport rested quite easy, feeling secure of her prize. The opposite party pushed the matter to a consummation by effecting the passage, February 18, 1864, of the following bill by the Legislature: " An election shall be held April 20, 1864, to determine whether the county seat of Lake County shall remain at Lakeport, or be removed to such other place in said county as shall receive the largest number of votes at said election. The places to be voted for are Lakeport, Kelsey Creek, and Grantville (Lower Lake)."
The result of this election was in favor of Lakeport, and again the peo- ple of that place were exultant. But they were not destined to yet be allowed to rest in perfect quiet in regard to the matter, for on the 2d day of April, 1866, an Act passed the Legislature providing that at the next gen- eral election, to be held in September, 1867, the people of Lake County should again vote upon the issue of the location of the county seat, and the contending points were designated as Lakeport and Lower Lake.
Between the time of the passage of this Act and the election the county building was destroyed by fire. This occurred on the night of February 15, 1867. Whether this was in any way connected with this county seat fight or not, will never be known, but one thing is certain, that a big argument in favor of Lakeport was thus set aside, for as long as the county had a Court-house, it was not just the thing to ask the people to build another. Now that this objection was removed, the opponents of Lakeport went into the fight with renewed vigor and hope.

History of Napa and Lake Counties --- LAKE.
As stated above, the contest lay alone between Lakeport and Lower Lake, and thus was Kelseyville left out of the fight, and the voters of that place became of much importance, as they held the key to the situation, or, in other words, the balance of power, and whichever way the vote of that place went, also followed the county seat. It is stated that every means possible was brought to bear by the contending forces to obtain this vote. As Lakeport lost the election by the vote of Kelseyville, of course it was loud in its accusations of fraud and full of recriminations against its oppon- ent, Lower Lake. The published statement of the vote at that election was, Lakeport three hundred and seventy-eight and Lower Lake three hun- dred and sixty-five, thus giving Lakeport a majority of thirteen ; but when the Board of Canvassers met they made a change, giving the election to the latter place by seven votes.
At the time of the burning of the Court-house, the Board of Supervisors rented a building from John O'Shea, just south of and near the drug store of L. D. Winchester, for county purposes, which was continued to be used until the result of the election should be known. It was, of course, impolitic to erect buildings in Lakeport when a removal was imminent, and did follow so soon. Let it be understood that we do not wish for a moment to convey the idea that the Board of Supervisors had any undue preference for either Lakeport or Lower Lake, nor would we give to any of their official acts a coloring that showed that they did, for nothing is farther from our purpose than to misrepresent or even comment upon the events which transpire in the history of a county. Only a statement of the absolute facts as they occurred, couched in readable language, is our desire to place before the reader. As there is still more or less feeling in the different sections of the county over this matter, we make this statement, that all may see that we have no personal interest nor prejudice whatever in the matter, and only aim at the truth.
Very shortly after the last election on this question the county officers moved their quarters to Lower Lake, and the people of that place were con- sequently exultant, and the people of Lakeport proportionately despondent. The order to remove to Lower Lake was issued by the Board of Supervisors November 4, 1867. But the Lakeport people did not give up the contest, and this was one case in which the old saying that "the third time is the charm" proved untrue. A suit was began to contest the election, and a mandamus secured to force the county officers to return to Lakeport. This was issued March 28, 1868, but it does not appear to have been obeyed.
The matter ran along in the Courts till October, 1869, when it was tried before Judge J. B. Southard in Napa City. A jury was had in the case, and they found for the appellant, Lakeport. The Judge referred the matter to the Legislature, and on the twenty-ninth day of March, 1870, an Act was
115
Political History of Lake County.
approved providing as follows: "There shall be an election on the first Monday in May, 1870, for the purpose of locating the county seat of Lake County, and the places voted for shall be Lakeport and Lower Lake."
All parties recognized this as the final contest, and no stone was left un- turned by the contesting parties to secure success. The vote of Kelseyville stood just where it did on the previous occasion, as regards its being the balance of power, and to gain it was a chief desideratum of both parties. From the vote cast it is evident that a few years of practical change to Lower Lake had not made them feel very favorable toward that place. There is quite a difference between a distance of eight miles to the county- seat and eighteen. If the Lakeport people had occasion to find fault with the Lower Lake people at the other election, the compliment was returned this time. Electioneers for Lower Lake did not meet with much success in the upper end of the county, nor with a very warm reception, or perhaps it might better be said that they received too warm a reception. The old citizen of Lakeport will tell you to-day, with a twinkle in one eye, and a knowing wink with the other, that they did not mistreat the emissaries of Lower Lake during the day of election at all. They " gave them a dinner at the hotel, put their horses in the stable and gave them the ' freedom of the city,' but were careful to see that they did no electioneering, and that they did not get home to vote that day." The Lower Lake papers of that date came out with " flaming headlines," and no end of black type, stating that there was fraud in the whole transaction on the part of the Lakeport people; that voters had been arrested on their way to the polls and incar- cerated during the day, giving to the whole transaction an air of unfairness. But be this all as it may, the vote was decisive, and largely in favor of Lakeport. We append the vote given April 3, 1870, by precincts, so that it may be seen just how it stood :

And so ended the long and terrible struggle which had been so hotly contested for ten years, nearly. It seemed to prostrate business in a measure and to give an air of uncertainty to everything. It is not our province to comment upon the relative merits of the two places, but it had been much better for the entire county had either place been permanently decided upon from the first. One of the most unfortunate features of the affair is that it engendered a very strong and sometimes bitter feeling of sectionalism among the citizens of the county, which it has taken time to mollify.
When the officers and records of the county returned again to Lakeport, a grand jollification was had, and seventy-five guns were fired, one in honor of each majority vote. Since then things have moved along as smoothly as could be desired, and the permanent location of the seat of county government has proved to be a decided blessing to all. So now let the breach that has so nearly healed be closed entirely and forever, and let the good people of Lake County work with one accord for one common purpose, the advance- ment of their beautiful county.
LOCAL OPTION ELECTION .- In 1874 a matter came up which was of some considerable interest at the time. This was known as the Local Option Law. It is not to be presumed for a moment that a vote on this question shows the real moral status of a community, nor indeed its true sentiment in regard to the cause of Temperance. Many people who advocate the cause from a moral standpoint do not think it comes within the scope of legal regulation, hence would vote against a measure of this kind, while many others who like a "drap o' the crayther" o'er well themselves, yet for the sake of the influence which might be exerted upon their sons, would vote against the licensing of the liquor traffic.
We append below the vote of Lake County on this issue, by precinct and township :

We will close this chapter by giving a short account of the greatest po- litical event which has occurred for many years in California-the adoption of the new Constitution. The Constitution which was framed at Monterey, when the State was yet in its swaddling clothes, answered every purpose for a number of years; but the entire body politic had changed, and the popu- lar voice became clamorous for a change in the organic law of the State. The question had often before been mooted, and votes taken upon calling a convention for the purpose of framing a new Constitution, but public sen- timent did not reach the requisite condition until the general election of 1877, at which time " Constitutional Convention, Yes," carried with an over- whelming majority. During the session of the Legislature which followed this election, a bill was framed and passed, which provided for the election of delegates to the convention, and which was approved March 30, 1878. Thirty-two of the delegates were to be elected from the State at large, not more than eight of whom should reside in any one Congressional district. In accordance with a proclamation issued by the Governor, an election for the purpose of choosing delegates to the convention was held June 19, 1878. A. E. Noel was chosen as the county delegate from Lake County. The body comprising the Constitutional Convention met at Sacramento City, Septem- ber 28th of that year, and continued in session one hundred and seventy-five days. The day set for the people of the State to adopt or reject the result of the labors of the convention was May 7, 1879; and there was a very strong, and, in some instances, a bitter fight made over it-those opposing it citing wherein the old Constitution had proved satisfactory, and wherein the new organic law would prove disastrous; while those who desired its adoption were as ready to show up the weak points of the old, and its inad- equacy to the demands of the present advanced state of affairs, and wherein the new would almost prove a panacea for all our ills, both social, moral, and political. Thus the matter continued to be agitated until the day had come on which the die should be cast, and, greatly to the surprise of every- body, the decision of the people of the State was in favor of the new law. The vote in Lake County was largely in favor of the new Constitution.
