MEN STATE REVENUE LAW.
An important Measure Which Is Now
Before the Legislature.

Before the Legislature.
In tue State Senate of February s
Mr.. Pitt introduced as an Act to
provide revenue for the State of
Nevada. which if it becomes law,
will make some radical changes In
the system now in force.
Tue greater portion of the pres
ent revenue law is embodied in the
new measure, and to this is ad lie Il
number OF new sections regarding
the method of assessing aud equal
izin5 taxes throughout the several
counties OF the State.
One OF the mostimpratant provis-
ious If the Act is that providing Tor
a State Bmrd Of Assessors in State,
the Cqntr ,ller being the Chairman,
aud his deputy the Clerk of said
Board, uut neither tue Chairman nor
Clerk shall be allowed vote in its
proceedings.
This Board is to meet 1t the State
Optic holding two sessions each
yelr. At the first meeting, which is
T. be he d on the second Mond y
in January, the board sh II assess
such property as it shall by law be
authorized and directed by law; pro-
vided, however, if this Act becomes
a law the first meeting in 1901 shall
be held in March.
1t shall be the duty of the State
Board to assess all railroads, aud the
rolling stock thereof, in this State,
at their actual cash value, and to APP
portion to the number of miles of
main track therein, the total assess
ment on side tracks to go to the
county in which they are located.
Another just and eqitable provis-
ion of this Act is that found in Sec
ton 157, which provides that the
Board have power to equalize the
taxable property of the several coun-
ties, taking into consideration their
geographical situation, and in this
manner arriving at the actual value
OF real and personal property, in
Guiding all kinds of live stock, etc.
Thus, in county which is isolated,
and far removed from market, the
valution of cattle, sheep and other
animal will be lower proportionately
than in counties which have facili
ties at hand transporting these pro-
ducts to market.
The members of the Board are
allowed actual travelling and other
expenses while in the discharge OF
their duties as members of the State
Board, but shall receive no other
additional compensation.
The bill is voluminous document
covering eighty-nine printed pages,
and is receiving large share OF At
tention in off .ial and 9TH. circles
throughout the State.

Since the recent storms the people
OF Nevada have had full assurance
# an abundance of water for the
coming season. The farmer, the
stoc man, the miner, the mill man,
the placer digger, are lisht-hearted
at the thought that they will be fully
supplied to work their lands and
claims to full capacity The farmers
fields will long look green with more
crops of alfalfa than usual and the
COW will not look at her owner in
pity for enough water to drink.

that Nevada's industries will be all

TONAPAH

The following interesting letter
written by H. G. Cutting to the
Reno Gazette, gives a good decrip-
ton of the new ore discovery.
Editor Gazette-As the outside
world seems to be taking some inter-
est in this Out of-the-way mining
camp, | thought possibly your reud-
ers might be interested in an account
OF It's location, formation, etc., from
one who is on the ground.
Tonapah may not strike you as a
very cuponeous name but it surely
Is unique. 1t Is an Indian name and
means water brush. The name was
given to the district by j. L. Butler,
who discovered the mines here last
June.
Although this prop rty was dis
covered last June aud notwithstand-
ing the f'ct that there are about
1850 feet of groupings that will as
say from $25 to $4,000 per ton, one
of the discoverers would have moth
ing to do with it, and the other one
Mr. Butler, gave away almost half
his interest in order to have it as
sayed. No locations were made here
until last August, but the country is
well covered now for some distance
around. Mr.. Butler and his associ
ates hold eight claims which seem to
cover about all the ground worth
having. The valuable ground seem
to be confined to small area A
parallelogram 1200x2000 feet would
cover all the groupings The ledges
run from wide wash to porphyry
hill through some little rolling
knolls of light colored porphyry
The general strike of the ledge is
northwest by southwest, but the
ground seems to be be net work
of ledges which carry good values.
The gargue of the ore is quartz
carrying sulphrets of silver and
some free gold. Horn silver is quite
plentiful in some places. Mining
men who have examined the prop
erty all say this is the largest show
ing of rich ore on the surface that
they have ever seen.
There are about forty men here
working on leases. One In.n is al
lowed but 100 feet on a ledge and
two or more get 200 feet. The leasers
pay twenty-five per cent net and
many work until the property is
sold. These terms are pretty steep,
but when one considers that the
lodges run from twelve inches to
ten feet in width aud that some of
the leasers are taking out ore that
will average from three TO five
hundred dollars per ton, and that
these values are right on the surface
YOU can see that there is a chance
for . leaser to nuke pretty good
wages.
Inere is not much chance here for
more leasing aud jist at present
miners are not in demand.
Ii the surface values go to any
depth this will be boom camp
within tue year whether it is sold or
worked by the leasers Hundred
dollar ore here is low grade and
sixty dollar ore is worthless to the
'leasers at present.

A Convincing Answer.

'sI hobbled into Mir. Blackmon' s drug store one evening"" says Wesley Nelson, of Hamilton Ga., ''and he asked me to try Cham berlain's s Pain Balm for rheuma- tism with which I had suffered for a long time. told him I had no faith in medicine as they all failed. He said: Well if Chamberlain s Pain Balm does not cure you, you need not pay for it, I took a bottle of it home and used it ac- cording to the directions and in one week I was cured, and have not since been bothered with rheumatism" Sold by Green Forest Drug Go.

Railroad Movements.

The Eureka Springs Times Echo says:
 'The commissary which has been stationed at the tunnel near this city since last summer will shortly move all it's effects into the city, pending the awarding of contracts for further construction of the road southeast from Harri- son. Several loads have already been brought here.
 MT. Colt, who has had personal supervision of this division of the work, is not yet certain that the contract for the farther extension will be awarded to him, but it seems quite certain that such will prove to be the case. It is stated from authentic sources that con- nections will not only be made with the Little Rock Northern at Wiley's Cove, but the line will be extended toward Memphis through Heber, in Cleburne county. In this case there will be two contracts awarded for the construction beyond Wiley's Cove.o

Berryvi11e Items.

From the Progress.
 The bad coon from Eureka Springs, the one shot by the po- lice while resisting arrest in that city some time ago, was brought over to Berryville and lodged in jail Saturday.
 There is quite lengthy crim- inal docket to be disposed of at the nextter of court. Itwould seem that the last grand jury had made a special drive on violations of the gaming and whiskey laws.
 The business tone of Berryville is plainly strengthened as result of the certainty of a railroad into the town. Not even the most chronic croaker now fears for the future of our little city and all are preparing to reap the full advant- ages accruing from the advent of the iron horse.
 Construction work on the Berrys vile road is being pushed vigor- ously with every prospect that the first mile of the grading will be completed within the ten days the graders set themselves for the task. The large wheel scrapers that have been in use will be set aside for a time after today, as the work is now in a locality re- during only short hauls and they cannot be used to advantage in such places. A large assortment of additional tools were secured yesterday from those used by MT. Skinner on his contract lately completed and extra teams and men will be put on to use them. Extreme courtesy has been shown our people by the railroad men generally and every accom- mediation possible extended them, and aided by their experienced advice, those in charge of the work are finding the task to which they have set themselves much easier than they anticipated. We confidently expect the Berry vile line to be in operation by the time the road is completed to Harrison if not earlier.
