AN INTERESTING CONTEST.

Papers were filed recently at Reno in the
district court praying for the appoint.
ment of DR.. G. A. Thoma as guardian of
Mrs. Alice NJ. Hartley's child, alleged to be
the son and heir Of the late NJ. d. Foley.
The prayer was granted and Judge Cheney
appointed DIR. Thoma guardian, with bond
fixed at 5000. c. T. Bender and VIM.
Thompson are bondsmen for DR.. Thoma. 1t
is understood that suit will be commenced
against the estate of NJ. D. Foley for the
child's portion. Judge Mayenbaum of San
Francisco and James F. Dennis of Reno are
the child's legal representatives in the pro.
posed contest, says the Gazette.
The contest involves the large estate of
which Mr.. Foley died possessed, and will be
watched with interest by the legal frater.
nifty. 1t is estimated the estate is worth
between 100000 and $500, OOO 1t is not
at all likely that the suit will in anywise
jeopardize the widows interest. Silver

The issuing of aluminium coins by the
DeLamar company in Lincoln county, may
prove to be very serious affair to the COM
pany. The law is explicit and the penalty
is severe. The government tolerates no
devices that may be used as a substitute for

company may have to pay for establishing
a private mint in Lincoln county. Eureka

Hon. R. NJ. BEATTY. Attorney General
of Nevada, SIR:-The Semi-Annual settle
ment of Ormsby county fled in this office
June 10th, 1885, contains claims against the
State for portion of the salaries of the Au.
ditor, Assessor and Treasurer of said county.
Am authorized by law to allow such
claims.
Respectfully, G. A. LAGRAvE,
State Controller.
Carson, Nevada, June, 25th,
Hon. c. A. LAGRAvE, State Controller of
Nevada. SIR:-Answering your official
query Of this date, concerning allowance by
you OF claims against the State for a por-
ton of the salaries of the Auditor, Assessor
and Treasurer of Ormsby county contained
in semi.annual settlement of said County.
answer that from the year 1865, to
March 23rd 1891, such claims were legally
allowable under the so-called "Revenue
Law"
An act to provide revenue for the sup
port of the government of the State of New
ada. Approved March Sth. 1862 as it
existed between these dates, vide General
Statues section |, 1863, But that act was re.
pealed wholly and by title On March 23rd,
1891. Statue 1891, page 1877, section 1874.
This repealed act also provided for the
payment OF part of the salaries, of county Au-
ditor, Assessor and Treasurer, out of moneys
belonging to the State. General Statue, Sec
ton 2, las to l,l63 inclusive, and though
the act of 81 .enacts many of the provi
sions and sections of that of '65. 1t does
not reenaet any sections between said sec.
tons ], las and l,l63, except ll49 and
], l6l, and | JAG does not relate to salaries
or compensations of officers, aud | ,l6l as
re-enacted in 1913 page 1872, section 1873,
simply authorizes the Sheriff as Ex.officio
License Collector to retain per cent on Ii.
censes sold.
The act of 1891 or any other existing law
of this State does not authorize payment ont
of the States money OF any part of the
salaries of either an Auditor, Assessor or
Treasurer OF any county, but the said act of
1891 Statutes 81 page 1877, section 1853, ac-
cording to the enrolled bill reads as follows:
''For services rendered under the provis.
ions of this act, County Assessors, Auditors
and Treasurers, except as specified in the
act shall receive no communication tn them
selves, other than the salaries fixed by law "
Hence my opinion is that you are not
authorized by law to accept any claims out
of moneys belonging to the State, for any
part of the salaries of either the Auditor,
Assessor or Treasurer of Ormsby, Or any
other county.
Respectfully, Robt NJ. Beatty,
Attorney General Of Nevada.

ed. The law in this matter is very clear as
may be seen by the following extract;
Every person who, except as authorized by
law, makes or causes to be made, or utters
or passes, or attempts to utter or pass, any
coins of gold, silver or other metals, or
alloys Of metals, intended for the use and
purpose OF current money, whether in the
resemblance of coins of the United States or
OF foreign countries, or of original design,
shall be punished by a.ine of not more than
three thousand dollars or by Imprisonment,
not more than five years, or both"
Why people will persist in defying the
law, can only be viewed from personal
financial standpoint, and more particularly
on one so important as the monetary ques.
ton 10 upholdng and circulating in silver
country, aluminium coins which are given
the people as a matter of exchange backed
by the local imaginary standing of an ind-
vidusl UNFOLDING this would be ignoring
the silver question and assisting the national
bank system which is the only Wholesale
licensed thieving scheme in existence, for
under circumstances any individual might
procure block of tin, iron or any other
base metal and make or cause to be made,
coins of various denominations and thereby
carry on q business OF several thousand
dollars with only a name to secure his pro-
mise Of exchange.
We need only reflect back a few years to
a similar case in this county when Curtis, of
Bristol, was fined $500 by the Govern
ment for issuing paper money in the form
of scrip. However, when the announce
ment is made to call this coin (?) in, we will
with pleasure bid it adeu and welcome
home the grand old silver dollar,
