TO.DAY'S WORK

To-day every voter in Carson
will go to the polls to choose
between two tickets, one COM
posed of business men anU tax
payers, and in most instances
tried officials, and another put
into the field by men who
simply enter politics to gratify
a silly thirst for notoriety and
petty personal spites, the out
growth of failure, disaster and
disappointed ambition. a col
lection of traitors, renegades and
camp followers, bursting with
blind greed, malice and discon-
tent, have sworn the sole mn oath
of treason to the party, and haV-
ing found a number of eager
Office seekers, have filled their
heads with idle dreams of fat
salaries and official responsible
tiles, aud are now using them as
a cats paw to accomplish ends
which never for an instant could
be dignified by any terms which
are Synonymous with party
principle or political fealty.
There is a general feeling among
citizens of Ormsby that to-day's
work should be SO effective that
this obnoxious crowd will never
again attempt to disturb and
poster this county. Let no one
imagine, however. that these
lunatics can ever be successfully
sat down on. A long series O.
defeats, no matter how crushing
never disturbs the equanamlty
of men who lack the sense t.
know when they are beaten
The same crowd will come vi
year after year, bowling 70
recognition, vsciferous for re-
form and working the same con
temptible lodges that have dis
graced the present fight. The.
will simply have to be quietl.
and disposed of as long as the
remain in the county, and intel
ligent voters may as well max
I'D their minds to do this 10
years to come.

SYIDrHER AND ADAMS

The indications are now that
Strother will carry the State
along with the entire ticket by
from two to four hundred ma
iority. Everywhere he has ap-
reared his dignity and gentle
manly bearing has stood in
such a striking contrast to his
garrulous, awk ward, vain,
glorious, boastful, promise
making, place-hunting opponent
that he has made heavy drafts
from the ranks Of the opposition
everywhere. If elected he will
be Governor, not a mere toy
puppet in the hands Of design
ing politicians. His election
will be an honor to Nevada, and
if the Republican party is true
to Its principles, he will be
elected. To-day the men in
the Democratic party whom
Adams has used and betrayed
will stab him in his own camp
. and mete out to him the treach'
ery he has SO long delighted in
dealing out to others.

"Look, how she schoons!' Catching at the

Old chronicler, DIR. Moses Prince. wrote OF
Captain Robinson: "This gentleman was
first contriver of schooners, and bnilt the
first of that sort about eight years since; and
the use now made of them, being so much

how mankind is obliged to this gentleman
for this knowledge. This is by no means

There has been considerable discussion
during the present term ot court concern
ing the new law regulating the per diem
of jurors, bailiffs and ether officers of the
court. We have heard considerable OBJ
iections to the law among the tax payers.
Some object to it on the ground that they
do not think that $3.50 day is excessive
pay for jurors service, and that they
would rather have $3.50 a day in county
certificates to apply to their taxes, than
50 90 a day in cash. Others put their OBJ
lection on the ground that the law will
work no economy to the county. They
think that the clerks salary of $500 will
duction of half dollar a day from the
jurors per diem. Some of our valued sub
scribers have suggested to us the propri
ETY. of commenting on the law in Our col
umns. Upon the first objection, the TIMES
expressed its opinion while the law was
pending before the Legislature. We were
inclined to concur in the objection. While
our views have not materially changed, it
would be useless to be making objections
to it now, because it is an existing law
We shonld now give it fair trial, and
endeavor to give an impartial test 20 the
wisdom of lis trainers. If, after two YEARS
of trial, it be found to operate badly, then
it will be time enough to agitate repeal
Upon the second point, regarding the
economy of the measure, we think our
friends are mistaken. Fifty cents a day
from the pay of As jurors viii amount to
S24 day. Surprising the entire number
of jurors to be in attendance an average
of IA days at each term, which, taking in
| to consideration the more extended ses-
sion of the petit jury, is fair average,
and we Will have a saving of 1886 at each
term, or $612 year, from jurors alone
| The reduction of the pay of bailitfs and
other officers will in the course of year
amount to about 800 more, making nearly
| $500 in al. Now we understand, upon
| inquiry, that the Commissioners clerk :
salary has frequent V heretofore amounted
to from 5000 to 500 a year. 1t will be
perceived that the new law gives the sal
airy of not more han $500 in lieu of all
other compensation, SO that the addition
al expense to the county on account of
the salary of this officer will only be about
| 5000 or less. So that the saving to the
county under the new law will be in round
numbers nearly or quite $500 year.
While we think that the economy I'M
der the law might have been somewhat
| further increased by the Commissioners
| fixing the clerks salary below the maxi
mum amount allowed by the law. still we
are not inclined to complain at present,
and must say that so far as our ohserva-
ton has gone the law appears to he work
| ing smoo bly, and well. Mr.. Mudd, the
efficient clerk of the Commissioners. seems
to be ,,ully equal to his new duties, and is
discharging the same with his usual cnur-
tesy and prouptncss and ~ a manner
most satisfactory to all. We say let US
give the new law a fair trial.
