Recently a man in San Francisco

with a lawyer named Wilson, Will
son robbed him of sum Of money
while acting as his attorney. and
when called upon ran a bluff on his
client and refused to admit that he
owed him the mohey. After little
parley the victim of the lawyers sharp
practice drew a six shooter and killed
Wilson. Of course all this was
wrong and illegal, but it placed ouj
of the way a man who had reputa-
ton for 1obbing his clients. It is
claimed that few years ago he rob
bed client of 81 900 in the same

and held on to it. The client did not

LET IT COME.

The Lovelock Tribune continues to
harp upon the unjust taxation fore
ed upon Humboldt County" The
Humboldt papers continue to assail
the new revenue law and hints at
political retributiun for all concerned
in the passage of the bill.
Now, if there is to be a political
struggle between the tax dodgers and
the tax payers of Nevada, the sooner
it comes the better.
The people who pay on one hun
dred per cent of the value of their
holdings will be on one side o. the
fight and the big tax payers who pay
on twenty per cent, and the foreign
corporations, who pay fifteen per
cent, will be on the other.
The next campaign will witness All
alignment of these forces. The PEG
pie might as we'll find out whether
the laws OF this State are made two
sided, to be inforced in the case of the
poor man and Ignored at the instance
of the rich.
When it comes to taxation we had
better have one law for everybody and
all On an equality.
If there is to be TAX dodgers as
sociation" in Nevada who propose to
fight the assessment ard payment OF
taxes. simply because they have the
money and the lawyers to indulge in
prolonged litigation, these men had
best get together, elect a President
and Board of Managers and incorpo-
rate. The public should have a list
of these people and know who they
are. So far Humboldt County has
made more noise protesting than any
other county. 1t simply shows thai
Humboldt has been lodging taxation
ard now that law is passed making
all pay alike it squeals like two pig:
under gate.
All this shows to the rest OF tn,
State that law which practically
does but little more than enforce tn,
old law hits Humboldt the hardest @
any body. If, as the Tribune says
anyone in that county is over taxed
there is legal remedy. No one cal
be compelled to pay taxes in exces
of the provisions of the law. AS til
APPEAL has before remarked, if til
Tribune man knows of any one in tn
entire State of Nevada escaping taxa
ton while Humboldt is paying O
full value, the State Revenue Boar
has the authority to sue the bond:
men of the Assessor in whose count
the parties reside who are escaping
Just and fair valuation Wheneve
such a case is reported to the Stat
Board, the APPEAL is authorized ,
state, that the Board will act.
