GOOD ADVICE.

Something new In the way of atsrac
tions at the State Fair will have to he
inauQurated in order to draw the crowd.
People have evidently tired of horse
races. We would suggest TO the Dr.
rectors the making OF the next State
Fair an exhibition Of Nevada's re-
sources. A little work would make the
exhibit of live stock-eattle sheep and
hogs-far more attractive and bring
together larger number of farmers to
exchange IDEAS: then, too, the ex ID
ition at the pavilion Of butter. cheese,
vegetables, honey, fruit, and other
products of Nevada would make an in
teresting display. Horse racing should
take second place ia future State Fairs.

material In Nevada TO make an exhibit

THE LAST OF THE GOVERNOR
SHIP CONTEST.

As stated in our last issue, the Gov
ernorship contest Is closed and Sadler
Is still Governor, just As everybody ex-
pected that he would be. None Of our
exchanges have given the decision in
full, so 1t Is impossible To tell on what
grounds ballots were rejected, or count
ed In spite of objections, and we will ae-
cerdingly withheld all comment until
the decision Is published. 1t appears
that the Reno registration was declared
valid, and the votes counted, while the
fifty-6ve red line" ballots cast for Me-
MILAN In Gold I'll we're rejected On
these ballots o line in red ink had been
drawn by the County Clerk previous to
the election through the name OF can
dldate for the Assembly who had with
drawn from the election.
The Court rejected l35 votes cast for
6adler out of a total OF 564 objected to
by Mcmillan; and it rejected ll9, be-
sides the red line" ballots, cast for Me-
MILAN, out Of u total Of 500 objected to
by sadler. Besides, the Court counted
IL votes for Sadler and Q for Mcmillan
that had been rejected by election IN
spectors, or discounted. This left Sad
ler's legal vote 3. 446, and McMillan's
$685. leaving Sadler a majority OF So
votes. Sadler received a judgement for
the costs OF the suit, which makes Nc
Millan's experience come high.

TAXATION.

The Eko Independent jumps on
Humboldt county, her Assessor and
assessment rate. Tho Independent
does not dispute the fact that Humboldt
isithe richest county In the State. As
matter of fact, Elko must be very
close In taxable wealth to Humboldt
county, but Brother Booher Is afraid
to call attention TO the fact that Elko
county, with her tax roll OF between
four and live million dollars. has real
or actual valuation ia wealth OF S20.-
O0D, 900.
The Independent agrees with The
Silver State that taxation In Nevada l.
farce, bowling farce, and poor men
pay the taxes and rich men escape them
to some extent.
Taxation. the solution OF it, is the
most im portant question now confront
ing the State government. II Is an nc.
tual fact that the rate is raising slowly
alt over the State; that from year to
year the State rate raises; that while
there Is a decided increase In property
valuation, the rolls OF the various coun.
ties show but few hundred thousand
dollars increase. What lie to go to
the world, that Nevada, already de-
spised, abused and laughed ut, is rails.
ing her tax rate. Il there cOmmun.
ity ON earth in which 1t is not an indi-
cation that times are bad and prices
falling?
We venture the assertion that Elko
isas badly assessed as Humboldt coun-
ty, that Lincoln county is no better.
Look at the great Dc La Mar proper
ties, the greatest gold mining enter
prise in the world, and assessed ut about
500. 900, when they have refused five
millions. Lat US not mince matters, for
II we love the State of Nevada and her
future prosperity, taxation must be re.
adjusted.
How unwiae and foolharjy Is the pol
icy which wouli prevent the valuation
being raise to double its present
amount, with the rate cut in half.
Would any one pay more taxes?
There are signal instances all over
this State as 10 the utter adsurdlty Of
our tax system. Nevada, rich, grow
ing, prosperous. with im1ense herds Of
cattle. focks OF sheep and bands OF
horses growing aud increasing yearly.
Let u raise the valuation all over the
State aod cut down the rate; no one

As will DO seen in another column,
Governor Sadler and State Controller
Davis were present at meeting OF the
Board OF Equalization of Eureka coun.
ty last week and gave the county dads
q severe shaking up, incidentally chal-
longing tho entire assessment roll OF the
county. They have pursued the same
tactics In all OF the northern and west.
ern counties, and White Pine escaped
probably only because we are of from
the railroad.
The last Legislature appropriated
81, 900 "for enforcing the collection Of
revenue and prosecuting delinquents,
to be under the control OF the Govern
or, Attorney General and State Con-
troller." We do not believe that the
present action OF Messrs. Sadler and
Davis was contemplated by the Leg
islature when it made the above appro
priation, and 10 posing as State Board
OF Equalization, those gentlemen are
clearly exceeding their authority, which
Is no greater in regulating the ASSESS
ment OF property than that OF ny pri-
vate citizen.
Nevertheless, We do not feel inclined
TO critici~e. Every word that they said
before the Eureka County Board is true
and we all know it. The small tax.
payer paws more in proportion than the
rich, and the poor county. than tie
rich county. Lincoln county. with
twice the population OF White Pine. is
assessed for 800, 600 less. A protest
coming from men so high in authority
as the Governor and Controller, will at
least give wide publicity to these glar.
ing discrepancies, and If County Boards
will not remedy them, State Board
must be created that can and will. AL.
ready we notice that the Washoe coun-
ty Board has been spurred to action,
and n large number OF her taxpayers
have been cited to appear and show
cause why their assessments should not
be raised. Let the good work go on
aud the credit be given where 1t is due.
