The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1876-04-07

The Board of County Commission
ers have levied tax of ~,2 80 on
each 800 of taxable property for the
current year. Ninety cents of the tax
is for State, one dollar and fifty cents
for county, aud twenty cents for school
purposes. The remaining thirty cents
is for the Courthouse bonds, Interest
and Sinking Fund. Al this rate OF
taxation, which is the same as levied
heretofore, ii is estimated that county
scrip will De at par next December.
Last year over SO 600 was paid for iu-
tetest on Court house bonds, This
year the interest on these bonds is re-
duced to S., 300. Under ordinary cir
cumstances tax of 50 so on the
800 will keep county scrip at par
alter the current year. The Court
house bonds have twenty years to run
before they can be redeemed, except at
the option of the holders. They draw
interest at the rate of ten per cent. per
annum, and an offer to redeem some
of the bonds with the surplus which
accumulated in the Court house.
Interest, and Sinking Fund last year
was refused. Financially Humboldt
county will compare favorably with any
county in the State. Notwithstanding
the general depression in business the
resources of the county are being grad
ually developed, and there is no per-
eeptible falling off In its taxable prop
erty.

1t has been lately ascertained that
the Revised Statutes of the United
States are full of blunders, errors, and
omissions. A volume made up of
these omissions, which has inst been
published, is said to be quite large.
The statutes are SO full of errors, that
the Government deems 1t necessary to
to get out new edition Some of the
omissions are very important, and
seem 20 have been left out purposely
by the compilers Gen w. b. Hazen
United States Army, writes Congress-
man ely Chairman of one of the
the estigating committees, that a
law passed In 1866, requiring the Com
missary Department to furnish enlisted
men, at cost, the articles usually fur
nished them by suffers, has been
omitted from the volume. He adds
that the law would have saved $4,000,
900 year to the soldiers, but it woald
have interfered materially with Bel
knap's sales of post traderships.
