Grand Jury Report.
Following is the report of the Grand
Jury for the October term:


Following is the report of the Grand
Jury for the October term:
HoN. NJ A. MURPHY, Judge of the
Third Judicial District.-Sir: We,
the Grand Jurors impaneled for the
term of court opening on Monday,
November 10, 1884, having completed
our labors, beg to hand you our report
herewith.
We have examined into six charges,
ignoring five and finding one true bill
for grand larceny, and we present
herewith the indictment We have
examined the county building and find
that the Courthouse is badly cracked
on one side, and would recommend
that the Board of County Commission.
ers take means to prevent further
damage by securing it by bolts or
other proper means. We find the Jail
neat and clean and no complaint from
any of the inmates thereof. We have
also examined the books of the county
officers and, so far as we can see, find
them correct and in good condition,
with the exceptions noted hereafter,
viz: The Assessor having until
December LIST to make his settlement
with the Auditor, we passed his books.
We think the law requiring the Dis
trict Attorney to hand over to the
Auditor on the LIST of April of each
year the delinquent tax roll should be
strictly complied with, that the &C
counts can be posted up and put in
proper shape.
We find that there has been gross
neglect on the proper officers in collect,
ing licenses and that there is a great
deal of money due the county from
that source uncolected; hence, we
urge upon those officers the necessity
of complying strictly with the law on
that point-which is that all licenses
must invariably be paid in advance
and that these officers collect in full,
at once, all such delinquent licenses.
Owing TO the time required the books
of the various county officers, we, as a
matter of economy and satisfaction to
the people of the county, earnestly
recommend that thoroughly compe
tent and reliable man be engaged tt
expert the books of each officer Of this
county, and report thereon il possible
before the close of the year. All OF
which is respectfully submitted.

letters from Superintendent Dunn, OF

he was threatened with paralysis OF
the brain, just as d. b. Starratt and
John Booth were afflicted, and he is

The Contested Election.

1t appears that the contest between
Byrne and Palmer rests upon a single
ballot, wherein the name of Byrne is
written on Republican ticket oppo-
site the name of Palmer, which latter
the voter neglected to scratch out.
One of the County Commissioners held
that the name of Byrne being written
on the ticket was conclusive evidence
that the voter intends to vote for that
gentleman instead of Palmer and that
1t should therefore be placed upon his
tally. The other Commissioner who
was present took the opposite ground,
so the Board was a dead lock. Com.
missioner BabcoY was sent for and
upon his decision depends the result,
so far rs the Canvassing Board is con-
Gerned,-Times. Repieac.
1t is rather singular that the Elko
County Commissioners have no copy
Of the election law to which they can
refer.

NJ. p. Freeman, who came to Nevada
with his parents in 1862, and settled at
Unionville, in Humboldt County, was
Treasurer of that county in 1866, a
wealthy banker at Elko in 80, subse-
quently settled at Tucson, where he
now resides. The Tucson Star of "a
recent date has this to say Of Mr. Free
man: THE Supreme Council of the
Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of
Free Masonry, in session at Washing
ton, has Just elected NJ. p. Freeman to
the thirty-third, or highest degree
known to Legitimate Masonry, being
the degree of Sovereign Grand In
spector General The distinguished
honor that this implies is not fully
understood even by large class of
Masons, being distinction to which
but few can hope to attain, Mr.. Free
man being the only one in Arizona
who has ever heen thus hon orsd. The
degree, unlike all others in Masonry,
cannot be applied for, and can only be
given when unsolicited, the statutes of
the Supreme Council declaring that
should it be asked for it must be
refused"
