IDIOTIC COMMIsS ONEHS.

WlUllC CUlulQlSS UhtS.
Last evening we received, through
the postotfice, the following certified
copy of an order made by the Board
of County Commissioners at their
meeting Monday. AS it is a very
interesting document, calculate ! to
strike terror to the heart of d timid
man engaged in the newspaper bus
mess, the INDEPENDENT cheerfully
lays it before it's readers in the hope
that, when they read it, they will drop
a tear of pity for this exhibition of
childishness on the part of Stanley
Rigsby, Ere I Wilson and A. M. Nc
Afe ), the pre- eat G )mn;s sion ers.
Here is the thunderbolt that was
int lie to knox the INDEPENDENT
into kingdom come:
ELKo, NEVADA, Sept. 4, 1894.
To Mr.. w. w. BooHER, EDITOR AND
PROPRIETOR OF THE INDEPEND
ENT, ELK), NEVADA, Sir:
By order of the Board OF County
Commissioners. at their meeting held
MONDAY, the Bird inst, 1 am instructed
to notify you to cause to be discon
tinued the WEEKLY INDEPENDENT
which is now being delivered and paid
for by the County. The said sub
s;ription to cease with the last issue,
now delivered.
Very Respectfully.
CT, BY order of the Board.
q. e. BILKEY,
Clerk.
1t will be an Interesting pastime
for Rigsby, Wilson and McAfee to
watch the effect of their rider on the
course of this paper in exposin ing their
rotten work as Commissioners. If
they will stick their index fingers in
tub Of water, and then withdraw
them and look for the holes, they will
see that the holes have disappeared,
and 80 it will be with their childish
efforts to crush the INDEPENDENT at
one fell stroke.
Perhaps, though, in making this
order, they thought that the money
they had unlawfully spent for metal
work in the Clerks vault should be
replaced and the only way to it was
to stop the subscription of the WEEK
LY INDEPENDENT. AS the paper cost
the county $500 per year, and the
metal work cost the county S1.147.5O.
it will take 2401@ years for us to re-
pla ;e it-a little longer time than the
editor expects to live, and over 249
years and 2 months longer than he
hopes the present Board will continue
in office. Now, the only objection
that we can raise to this bright scheme
Is that it mortgages the future far be.
yond natural life time and leaves
a heavy burden to be borne by our
sucoe sor in the man lge ne ut Of the
INDEPENDENT. Had the Commits
sioners simply limited to us that their
consciences troubled them, as they
evidently do, we would have aided
them in their efforts to replace the
money unlawfully taken from the
county treasury, and had they shown
works meet for repentance, we might
have been induced to pay it all, cash
down, and thus have save mort.
gage on the future. But their hearts
were hardened and they didn't do it,
and here we are mortgaged for 249
years and months.
We will try to bear the burden with
that Christian fortitude that has
never yet forsaken us in the face of
greater difficulties, and only ask the
Comm issioners not to add to the debt
the difference between the value of
the pc 'thouse and the amount it was
eurreDtitiOusly sold for TLot ,,;lt
