COMMISSIONERS PROCEEDINGS.

At the monthly meeting of the Board
of County Commissioners held last
Monday, the following business was
transacted.
On complaint of Mrs j. Butler, the
clerk was ordered to notify A. w. Geer of
Pahranagat Valley, to repair one of his
irrigating bitches which overhows and
renders impossible a part of the public
road.
Chas ONeil, in INDECENT circumstances,
was allowed the sum of SIS for the
present month.
On petition regularly presented, new
school district was formedin Paharanagat
Valley to be six miles square; the NE.
corner being at abe N. f. corner of Sec.
%. 7. 5, s. R. GO. E., which is a short
distance north of Buffers ranch.
A list of fifty names was drawn from the
last poll books, which is to constitute
the jury list for the District Court during
the present year.
On account of the general revival Of bus
mess it was deemed advisable to fix the
tax levy for the current year, sooner
than has been customary, and it was
made as follows: State Fund, 9Oc;
General County Fund, 9Oc; INDECENT
sick Fund, l5c; Contingent Fund, 30;
Redemption Fund, 35; Current Expense
Fund, 4Oc; School Fund, SOC; Fire
Fund Phoebe Township, lOc. This
makes the County rate &c. SO, and Phoebe
Township $500 per 500, which isIten
cents per 500 less than the levy of last
year.
Officers monthly statements were APPROX
ed and the usual list of claims against
the county was allowed. The money re
naming in the County Treasury was
counted as required by law and found to
be correct after which the Board adjourn.

THE RAYMOND DEEP WINE.

The force of twenty five men employed
in repairing the damage done by the
late surface cave, and in overhauling the
air compressor plant, finished their la.
bors Sunday morning, the 9Th inst, and
steam was turned on that day. Since
then the, regular quick exhaust of the air
compressor has been heard day and night,
and the water, which had gained l6O
feet in the deep Wine, has been lowered
at an average rate of 36 feet per day.
Yesterday it stood at the point which
had been reached when the accident
causing the shut down occurred, 1877
feet below the l2O0.ft. level, l3 feet from
the l4th station, and 1903 feet from the
bottom of the winze. 1t is anticipated
that progress downward from this point
will be slower, as, aside from accidental
causes, the rest of the work will be the
same as the original draining, which will
include the pumping out of whatever
natural reservoirs of water may be con.
nected with the Wine.
