Our Tax Levy.

In copying the minutes OF the proceed

made an error in stating the mount levied
for school purposes, and printed II eighty
cents, when IL should have been 80 cents.
The levy as made should read State
tax, n~inety-two cents ; General Fund, one
dollar +; Current Expense Fund, eight
cents; School Fund. fifty cents. This
makes the total tax rate for 1898. outside

AN EXCELLENT SUGGESTION.

A possible plan for making the hours OF
the inmates Of Nevsds's Hospital for Men,
tai Diseases less dresry is proposed by
Mise Nellie V. Davis OF Carson. She
writes an open letter in q recent issue of
the Appeal, addressed to the Friends Of
Humanity" In which she says that while
visiting the asylum 81 Carson last Sum-
mer she was shown several rooms Of
most cheerful aspect. with comfortable
chairs placed around fine large tables. In
each Of these rooms spacious book cases,
absolutely empty Not q bound volume
stood on the shelves behind the glass
doors. Upon the tables we're neither
magazines, nor papers, nothing 70 be read
in these reading rooms Nothing to alb
sorb the after tion nor divert the mind
diseased, during the long gloomy hours Of
Winter when il is impossible for these
poor people to 80 out under the trees an
enjoy the blessed sunshine as they we're
doing that Summer day.
'lne superintendent said' Wnen quee-
toned. that the appropriation was barely
sufficient TO provide for absolute neces-
stiles, and there was nothing left with
which to purchase books. He also said
that many of the patients were mentally
capable of reading and enjoyed it greatly.
He expressed his gratitude to the thought
full people who had donated some reading
matter but no effort has ever been made
to start 8 library"
Miss Davis suggests that all who may
be able to do SO donate one or more books
or magazines to these poor u~nfortunates.
and in that way nucleus for q substantial
library would be soon found. Books may
be sent to her at the Carson Appeal Office,
and she will attend to their delivery.

says u is Unconstitutional.

1t seems they have q poll tax law in
New York State similar to that enacted
by the last Nevada Legislature. The
New York World Of recent date says !:
Z" Justics Chester of the Supreme Court
has decided that the law providing for
the payment Of a poll tax as a qualities
ton for q poll tax for the exercise of the
right to vote is unconstitutional. David
B. Hill was the attorney for those who
contested the law. Senator Hill urged
that ii was contrary to the constitution
TO prevent. in any way, . qualified voter
from exercising the right Of franchise.
Justice Chester decided that the payment
OF . poll tax imposed an additional pro-
vision TO those Of the constitution upon
the voters right Of franchise. and that
any such condition was unconstitutional.

THE NEW MAIL CONTRACTS.

We made mention in our last issue OF
the letting OF the new contracts for carry
ing the mails on Star route service. We
have since ssceriained the names OF the
bidders and the prices for which the CON
tracts will be let on routes running In and
out Of Eureka. 1t will be seen By com
parison with the rates under existing con-
tracts that q considerable reduction will
be the result Of the sharp competition and
speculative bidding.
On route No. 1874, from Paiisade TO
Eureka, the price under the present con-
tract is SO. 800 q year; under the new con-
tract, let TO Joseph Flynn, Of Eureka
county, the price will be 50, 949. 8 reduc-
ton Of 1851.
Route No. 1915. Eureka 70 Ely; the
present contract price is %, 5s2.1 10; the
new contract will be let TO @. G.. Steele Of
London. Laurel county, Ky, for 81. $50 q
year. q reduction Of s902.1O.
Route No. 1919. Eureka TO Typo; the
present price Is 81. 1870 a year; under the
new contract. let to O. G.. Steele Of Ken
tucky. the price will be 81, $50, q reduc.
tion OF S610.
Route No. 1871, Eureka TO Currsnt
Geek; present contract price is 81. 200 9
year; under the new contrsct, let 10 II. G.
Lakewood Of London, Kentucky. the
price will be 5000, a reduction or $500.
Route No. 1913. Eureka to Ruby Hill;
the present contract price is s244.99 3
year; under the new contract, let to G. II.
Stinson Of Eureka, the price will be $500.
. reduction Of S44. 90.
Route No. rs, 1876, Eureka to Joy bald
Mountsin); the present contract price for
once a week service is s494 30 syesr; I'M
der the new contract, let to J. T. Anglin
Of Martinsville. Va, for twice q week SER
vice, the price will be but s760.
Route No. 1912. Prospect to Eureka;
the present contract price is S248.99 a
year; under the new contract. let to J. T.
Anglin Of Msrtinsville. Va, the price will
be $50, a reduction Of S58. SO.
These contracts have not yet been exc
cuted. but the persons above mentioned
are the lowest bidders. and in all proba-
bility several Of the routes will be let at
even less remuneration than received by
the original bidders. Our exchanges
state that about t%wo-thirds Of the con-
tracts on the Star routes will be let to
parties residing in London, a small town
in Kentucky, which makes il fair 10 as
sumo that the bidders Of that place have
filed their proposals with q view to specu.
lation.
