Had the bin become law the re.
corder would have retained each
month for his own use and benefit all
the fees collected over and above 800.
For the eighteen months above given
this would have Melted him the snug
little sum Of s1422,25, which added to
his salary as stated IN the bill would
have given him the sum Of S4122,25
as against s2700 the salary, fixed by
law when he was elected. In order
to make the matter perfectly plain to

FACTS FOR rAxPAYERs.

The taxpayers of Elko county be-
fore they cast their ballots for County
Recorder on the 9Th Of next month
should remember the bill introduced
into the Assembly on the 10th of Feb
ruary, 1897, fixing the salary Of the
County Recorder. This bill was in
PRODUCED by Assemblyman McAfee
at the request of Recorder Watkins,
or his friends, and on the Goth of Feb
ruary it passed that body without a
dissenting vote. 1t then went to the
Senate and on March 5th was in
definitely postponed on motion of
Senator Skaggs. While this bill was
pending in the Senate the INDEPEN-
DENT exposed it's true inwardness and
through it's efforts the bill was sent
to the Legislative boneyard. In order
that the voters may know exactly
what the bill proposed we publish it
in full. 1t is as follows:
Section l. On and after the pas
sage of this Act, the County Recorder
and ex-officio Auditor of Elko county,
State of Nevada, shall receive the
sum Of eighteen hundred (Sl800 Dol
lars per annum, and shall be author
lied to retain for his own use and
benefit all moneys collected by him
as fees in excess OF One Hundred
(S100 Dollars per month, all fees up
to and including One Hundred (e10O)
Dollars collected by him each month
shall be paid into the County Treas
ury. ~
Section 2. All Acts and parts of
Acts in conflict with section One of
this Act a:e hereby repealed
In our criticismof the bill at the
time we said: aIf this bill becomes a
law Recorder W atkins will have a
very fat thing and the taxpayers of
the county win have to foot the bill
Let us see from the records whether
or not that assertion is borne out
by facts. The Recorders reports on
file in the clerkB Office show the fol.
lowing fees Objected by him each
month from April l, 1897, to October
/, 1898: - p.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Sept. 1.-The days stock
market was dull to the verge of stag
nation for practically all of the stand
ard stocks. There was no severe pres
sure of liquidation but neither was
there any demand to buy.
There is a constant dribble of realiz-
ing offers and a sagging of prices
The market was redeemed from alb
solute dullness today by movements
in special stocks. Sugar and Man
haitian were marked up by the bears.
Peoples gas reacted on the failure of
the agreement among inside interests
expected to result from yesterdays
conference. There was a large absorp-
tion of both Northern Pacific preferred
and Union Pacific preferred; Union
PaCifics favorable somewhat for July
giving the movement a fresh impetus.
The common stock both suffered from
liquidation. The projects of the great
new federal steel company were re-
flected in the activity of various stocks
affeofed. General Electric, Consolidated
ice. New York Air brake, Baltimore and
Ohio the Cleveland, Lorraine and
Wheeling stocks, and Buffalo, Roches-
ter and Pittsburg stocks showed
marked advances.
The total sales were 3SS,300.

this handicap of nature the audience that

drama deals with nihiism and plots
against the cZar. Into this sombre theme
several pretty love stories are interviewer
and there is a rich comedy element furn-
ished by Colonel Cobb of Kentucky. The
company now producing the drama at the
Academy gives very clean cut presenta-
tiOn OF II.
Between the acts illustrated songs are
introduced and pictures of the heroes of
the late war and of the leading vessels
of the navy are shown. The drama will
be repeated this and tomorrow after
Moons
