THE COUNTY DEBT.

Lincoln county, like most of the coun-
ties in the State, is burdened with a
heavy debt, and one which the people
cannot afford to bear. 1t is not our pur-
pose at this time to saddle the blame of
this Indebtedness upon those who have
managed the county finances, but we
enter upon the more agreeable and we
trust more profitable task of endeavor-
ing to show how the county may be put
upon better financial basis. County
warrants on the genera, fund now COM
mand from 40 to As cents on the dollar,
and all who do work for the county must
charge at least twice as much as they
would If they were paid in coin. Event.
ually every dollar of the debt thus con-
tracted must be paid in full. OF course
this is ruinous to the prosperity of the
county, and a remedy for the evil must
be found. The remedy can only be
afforded by the Legislature at its next
session We therefore direct the atten-
ton Of Senators Ciapp and Wilson and
hssemblymen Shoaff, Wallace and
Craigue"to this important matter, feeling
assured that they will give the subject
the serious consideration it merits. By
reference to chapter TX. Statutes of 1869,
p. so, they will find an act passed in
relation to the finances of Lyon county,
and on p. 81, Statutes of 1871, is an act
amendatory of the first named act.
These laws contain provisions which APP
ply with great force to the financial con-
dition of Lincoln county. Such or
similar legislation for our county will
place its finances upon such basis that
1t will be able to pay cash for all expens-
es incurred hereafter, leaving the present
debt to be paid by the proceeds of a
special tax to be provided for, or by set
ting aside portion of the tax levied for
general county purposes as a redemption
fund. The amount of tax necessary to
be raised or set aside as a redemption
fund is the most important matter to be
considered by the delegation from Lin
coin county to the Legislature. The
amount of the county debt and the re-
ceipts of taxes for county purposes
should be taken into consideration, and
whatever tax upon the 800 worth OF
property may be found necessary to
meet the present Indebtedness, consult
ing both the intereste of the county and
the rights of those who hold its evidences
of indebtedness, should be provided for
by an act of the Legislature as soon as
practicable after the meeting of that
body in January. All the requisite data
concerning the amount of the county
indebtedness, the amount of revenue
collected for general county purposes,
etc, are matters of record at the Aud
itor's Office. The act concerning the
finances of Lyon county have been
found to work admirably, having brought
thu at county from condition bordering
on insolvency to healthy financial
basis. Similar legislation will be highly
beneficial to Lincoln county, and we are
confident that our delegation will not
overlook so important matter.

How a Pope is Elected.

An English work on The Constitution
of Papal Conclaves'' gives some curious
information as to the mode in which the
Cardinals elect a..Pope. Upon the death of
Pope one Of the Cardinals, whose duty it
is to represent supreme authority during
the interregnum, proceeds with a gilt NAL
let to knock at the Pope's door, and then
to tap the forehead of the deceased with a
silver mallet. The great bell of the Capitol
is then tolled, to summon the conclave,
but nine days must pass before the actual
meeting, to give all time to arrive. On the
ninth day the Cardinals meet in the church
of st. Sylvester, and walk in procession to
the Quirinal Palace, where they are, three
hours after sunset, closely shut up until an
election is made. Each Cardinal has his
call and is supposed to fix his choice in
complete solitude free from all external
influences. But their Eminences are not
shut up alone. Each Cardinal may have
with him two Conclavists, or confidential
private secretaries and these have some
times been able to play an important part
in Papal elections, their practices having
been more than once as adroit and success
full as those Of our own " "log-rollers." Be-
side the Conclavists, there is population
of confessors, physicians, ETC., down to
BARRIERS, carpenters apd sweepers. These
being locked and barred in, the Cardinals
vote each day until an election is accom-.
plished. A simple ballot is taken in the
forenoon, and, if no election is made, Q
second is taken in the afternoon, but only
for transfer of the names voted for in the
morning. If there is still no election, thu
ballots are thrown upon the fire in the
chapel, and the smoke from the chimne,
announces to the people that the church Il
still without head. The strictest precau
tion is used to prevent fraud. Betting OF

Importance Of Reading.

No matter how obscure the position in
the life of an individual if he can read, he
may at will pat himself in the best society
the world has ever seen. He may converse
with the greatest heroes Of the past with
all the writers in prose and poetry. He
may learn how to live, how to avoid the
errors of his predecessors, and to secure
blessings, present and future, to himself.
He may reside in a desert far away from
the habitations Of man; in solitude, where
no human eye looks upon him with interest
where no human voice cheers him with the
animating tones, If he has books to read
he can never be alone. He may choose his
company, and the subject Of conversation,
and thus become contented and happy,
| intelligent, wise and good.

Gbe Gin,es, Nem Bloonthelo, 1)a.
A Romantic Case.

Something has just happened in Maine
that recalls several well-known poems and
romances, and with them story in real
life that transpired generation ago.
Gov. Perham, by and with the advice of
his Executive Council, has pardoned a
man named Thorn, who has been an in
mate of the State Prison at Thomaston
for twenty-nine years. The wardens of
the prison have repeatedly pleaded for
Thorn to Gov. Perham and his prede-
cessors. They represented that the mans
behavior was most exemplary; that the
circumstances under which he committed
the crime for which he was condemned
were exceptional and trying; and that he
had given long and sincere evidence of re-
pentance. Only however, after an i'm
prisonment exceeding by five years his
whole previous life, after his prison doors
being flung open has Thorn walked forth
free man.
Thirty years ago Thorn was a jovial
young sailor. Roaming about the coasts
of Maine, he met and fell desperately in
love with young girl named Lois Alex
ander. This was at village called Harps-
well, and here the two became betrothed.
Thomas and Lois agreed that he should
make one long voyage, and on his return
that they should marry. He sailed, and
time rolled on until the period fixed for
his return was long past. The girl was eli
ther persuaded of his death or otherwise
beguiled; at any rate, when Thomas came
back, which he did a year later, he found
his affianced the wife of an elderly, well-to-
do man, named Wilson. By one of those
fatalities which so often occur in life Thorn
became resident under Wilson'S roof.
A close intimacy sprang up once more
between Lois and Thomas-and report said
Sunday, February 5, tS43, Wilson was
found dead in his bed. His skull was bro
ken, and investigation showed that the
deed had been committed with a pair of
tongs. Attendant circumstances connected
Thorn with the murder, and appointed to
Lois Wilson as accessory. Both were tried
and he was found guilty and she acquitted.
Hon. VIM. p. Fessenden and Francis G.
7. Smith being assigned by government
for his defence, made hard fight to save
Thorn, but in vain and the end we have
recorded. He was first condemned to
death, but the punishment was commuted
to imprisonment. for life and now, at the
age of fifty-four, he has received pardon.
When first put in Jail Thorn could nei-
ther read or write; and he is now said to
be tolerably well educated man. Some
of his letters to the Governor, reciting his
early career, the bitter provocation he
had received, and praying to be released,
are said to be exceedingly well written.
To pass generation in confinement, to be
thus immured during those years COM
monty reckoned the best of a mans life, is
certainly terrible punishment and under
the circumstances, few will say that Thorn's
case was not fitting one for the exercise
of Executive clemency.
