The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1885-02-02
OVERRIDING A VETO.

The Legislature passed bill to in
crease the salary of the Assessor of Nye
county from 81. 200 to $1,000 per an
mum. Nye county polled about 400
votes at the November election, and it
was alleged by the advocates of the
bill that the Republicans pledged to in
crease the salary of the Assessor. The
Legislative delegation is divided polit-
ically, the Senator being Republican
and the two Assemblymen Democrats.
The Governor vetoed the bill upon the
grounds that in the last canvass no SUBJ
ject connected with State policy was SO
fully discussed as the reduction of State
and county expenses, and that there
was but one opinion as to the necessity
of such reduction, and for the further
reason that mo salary should be in
creased or reduced during the time of
an officer already elected These OBJ
jections, one of which is simply state
ment of facts, and the other of which is
based ON an established principle, were
not considered valid, and the veto was
over-ridden, only two voting to sustain
it in the Senate and four in the Assem-
bly,; among them the two Assemblymen
from Nye County. Now the question
ia, will the people, who have been clam.
oring for a reduction. of State and
County expenses. in consequence Of the
decrease in taxable property, sustain
the Governors views or those of the
Legislature!

THE SILVER CONVENTION.

The State Silver Convention met at
Carson last Saturday. c. G. Steven
son, of Storey county, was elected
Chairman, and A. C, Pratt Secretary.
Hon. William Woodburn advocated the
payment of Government bonds in silver,
and the free coinage of the metal at the
Minis, while r. L. Fulton, of Reno,
argued that if the price Of silver re-
manned unchanged it would be wise to
increase the weight of silver coin.
The views of these gentlemen on the
silver question show the difference be-
tween the friends and enemies Of silver.
One favors unlimited coinage Of the
metal 1t the rate Of 4l2A grains Of silver
to the dollar, while the other thinks if
The present low price Of silver in the
London market remains unchanged,
the weight Of the silver dollar should
be increased. Woodburn expresses the
sentiment of large majority of the
people of thu Western States, while
Fulton voices the sentiment of mono.
metallists Of the East. The latter con-
tend for legislation that will make sill.
yer q commodity like lead or copper,
with no fixed value, whereas the friends
of silver desire to place it as it ever has
been in most of the civilized countries
of the world, on an equality with gold,
with fixed value. As the full pro-
ceedings Of the Convention have not
yet reached us, we have not learned
what the action of the Convention has
been, but it is safe to say that it did
not misrepresent the sentiment of the
people of Nevada. by adopting the
views of Mr.. Fulton.

the DE YoUxG snoorrxG CASE

The examination Of Adolph B. Spreck-
els. who shot and seriously wounded
NJ. Fl. De Young. of the San Francisco
Chronicle, on the 10th of November last,
took place before Judge Lawler, of the
San Francisco Police Court last Friday.
De Young. who carried his wounded
arm in sling. was the first witness ex.
amined, and he testified to having been
shot in the Chronicle office, while un-
armed. by Spreckels. Spreckels made
no defense, and was held to answer be-
fore the Superior Court in S., 900 bonds.
As he is millionaire, he experienced
no difficulty in getting bondsmen, and
it is not likely that he will have much
trouble in getting acquitted of the
charge of assault with deadly weapon
with intent to commit murder, when
the case comes up for trial.

what the Missing Clerk says Abont II.
j. V. Mclaughlin, Tyler's law clerk,
who received S25, 900 OF Sharon's money,
for what purported to be contract be-
tween G. w. Tyler, of Sarah Althea's
counsel, and Gumpel, an expert on
writing, who testified in the case, has
turned up at Victoria, British Colum-
bia. Some of the San Francisco papers
say Mclaughlin has written letter to
q friend in that city, in which he says:
II never told you bold and openly the
story about that contract. tell you
now that it was q genuine contract

fore il was signed. Nelson came in
Tyler slipped the paper into his desk,
and retired with Nelson to another
room. Gumpel walked to the window.
Then / slipped around to Tyler's desk.

darted back again, and neither Tyler
nor Gumpel knew that had seen it.
Two days asterward / saw Barnes and
Lees. / told them about the papers,
and Barnes said: Lees old man,
Sharon, has been cinched so bad al.
ready, but guess he can afford to buy
this paper if it is genuine ! did not
hear what Lees said. That is all be
said, but i heard enough to make me
believe that they were going to put up
a prize, and leave a margin for them
selves on the transaction. Then Lees
said: Mclaughlin, will get you a
burglars outfit from the property clerk,
If need be, for must force Tyler's desk
and get at that contract said that
/ could not; that was afraid. Then
Lees and Barnes laughed, and said they
could run me through all the courts in
the country. no matter what / did, so
long as it was in Sharon's interests.
That night / broke the lock on Tyler's
desk, and got the paper. When Tyler
missed it he dropped on me right away
He stormed and clustered, and was
going to have me arrested, but / told
him the whole story. He said that if /
gave him half he would fix the whole
matter so that none OF us would be in a
scrape, and we would all have slice of
old Sharon's money, and he'd arrange
things so as to make the matter appear
like trap for Barnes, and help the
case. | did not want Tyler to have
any hold on me, so / gave him $500
down and my note for $500 more, pay
able when the whole matter was hushed
up, and / was secured from prosecution.
/ hope now that Tyler will 60 to Jail,
for he and Gumpel are guilty of conspi-
racy, and when Barnes thinks it worth

it quick. The truth of the matter is, /
will put it plainly, and well supported
by persons whose names have never yet
