The Charter Passed. .

The new city charter was duly passed by
the Senate yesterday, and III a very few
weeks our municipal affairs will be moving
along under the new dlspensation, smoothly
and in the most satisfactory manner.
So faithfully have the newspapers per-
formed their duty OF chronicling legislative
affairs of great interest, that the people OF
this city are pretty well acquainted with
their new instrument of municipal govern
ment, and as far as we can see, 1t seems to
be accepted with general satisfaction. True,
it has been opposed by one or two Whining
ton papers, but that they represented in no
degree the actual sentiment of the
community was evidenced by the
hearty approval, by leading men Of
both parties, of the very provisions they
most vigorously assailed. At no time
have the people made any emphatic protest
against the amendments made to the charter
Will. it was pending in the Legislature, and
there is every reason to believe that as far as
the public Is concerned the work of the
Legislature was IL uch more satisfactory
than the document incuhated at so many
sessions of our "model" city fathers.
Even if defects should subsequently bC
discovered in our new charter, and it will
be almost miracle il such is not the case
it is a vast improvement to have complete
aud concise codiication of the laws fol tha
government of this city. Further amend.
ments to the old patched and
repatched charter would not have held to
gether, but now the city's act of incorpora
tion is in such shape that any mistakes o
omissions can readily be discovered and cor
reeted at the next session. We are sure i
will answer finely for two years, and, WI
hope, for much longer period, but even
it should not prove all that has been claimed
for it, it is vast improvement over thu
charter under which we are living at tht
present time.

Official bonds.

A demurrer interposed in the suit
against the bondsmen OF the late
Treasurer of White Pine county,
Geo. p. McConkey, has been sustain
ed by Judge Rives. This decision
will, il is said, have the effect OF put
ting an end To all proceedings i'll the
matter, so that if White Pine has sus-
tanned a loss through one Of her Off
Gals, her citizens can bear 1t with the
best grace they may. This is II
more instance illustrative OF the in.
justice and absurdity of the official
bond system, which, while lulling
into fancied security dulls the spirit
of Legitimate inquiry, and at last
hibits the fallacy Of its p%retentions
by utterly falling to bring the prom
ised relief. Had McConkey held the
office of Treasurer Of White Pine
county simply by virtue OF faith in
his ability and integrity, on the part
of the citizens of that section, would
their loss have been greater than at
present under this so so-called surity
system ? Is it not probable that it
would hive been less ?-Elko indie
~pendendent.
We admit that the ruling Of Judge
Riyes in the above case is a very
strong point made forthe "non-offlcial
bond" theorist. But, still, we main
tain hal it will be a cold day for the
taxpayers of Nevada when official
bonds are abolished. In our State
the taxpays are not the dominant
party in an election, and the most
worthless citizen has an even, If not n
better show, to be elected TO Office OF
trgst, than a good man. Ofcourse the
former could not get bonds, and that
bars him out; but nee pull down the
few barriers that remain as a check
10 official dishonesty, and the tax
payers Of this State would be robbed
and plundered on every hand
Stronger argument than Judge Rives'
ruling in favor OF McGonkey's
bondsmen must be found before the
people will consent to put their prop
eety at the mercy OF irresponsible
and corrupt officials, such as would
be certain to get Into Office if no
bonds were required. 1t is not the
bonds in themselves that give secu-
rlty, 50 much the fact that the ofiaial
! commands the confidence OF his fel-
low citizens in a sufficient degree 10
secure bonds.

Fighting Back.

We learn from X. Sadler, who came
in from Hamilton sun lay, that
County Commissioners Lockwood
and Halstead we're arrested there Sat
urday on a complaint sworn out by
z. NJ. Ellison, charging them with
dereliction IN office in neglecting to
count the moneys in the Treasury, as
directed by the statutes. They were
put under bonds of $3.50 each to
await the action of the Grand Jury.
The affair created quite a sensation,
aud the Commissioners were the
maddest me in the comfy. The
McConkey bondsmen are pretty hot
in the collar because they have been
sued by direction of the Commission
ers, and the arrest were probably in
stigated by the bondsmen to Int back
once and get even, by making the
Commissioners mad.-Sentinel.
There is no doubt but our Conn.,
m~issioners have neglected their duty
in more than n way, but that is
no reason why these bondsmen
should kick so high for being called
on for the amount OF their sureties.
1t may be good law, but it is poor
Justice, to have neglect OF one set of
county officials invalidate the respon-
sibility of the bondsmen of another.
IL is said that Gilmer Il Salisbury
have purchased the Onondaga mine,
the leading mine in Stafford District.

Wallace, Assessor OF Eureka county,
undoubtedly is entitled to the pastry.
He was mainly instrumental in the
bringing Of the suit, lately decided in
the Supreme Court, which DEGREES
that stock shall be assessed in the
county where the home ranch is To-
Gated. In that case the law as inter-
preted by our highest tribunal was in
favor OF Eureka county. Charley, OF
course, thought il was right a. it in
sured, in that instance, to the benefit
of his own county. But mark an-
other instance i'm which he decided
that unless Eureka wasthe party BEN
Gifted, such am Interpretation Of the
statutes was radically wrong. Oliver
Rifle, of Mound Valley, IN this county,
keeps his sheep during the greater
part of the year at his home ranch.
During the winter months lie herds
them in Nye county. While driving
them through Eureka county from
Nye TO Elko this year, they were way
laid by the Eureka Assessor and as
sessed in that county. OF course, un-
der the Supreme Court decision, the
assessment was Illegal, but the
chances are that Charley will MAIN
tain that Eiko home ranch sheep are
not subject To tue same law under
which Eureka cattle in another eoanty
should be assessed.
