Assemb!yman Plat Suggests.

A bill reapportioning the representa-
ton f'"m the various counties of this
State has been intrOd uced in the Ne
vada State Assembly. Under its pro-
visioa-. tho county 0! OrmSby loses
one .Assemblyman. It is only matter
of cor lecture whether the measure will
be reported favorably to the House by
the committee on elections to which it
has been referred. However, q minor.
it, report may possibly be adopted and
the present bill may become the basis
of future legislative representation in
this State.
Without discussing the Constitution
al provisions authorizing periodical re-
appointments it is sufficient to say
that the measure now under consider
alton has been promised upon the last
census returns from tLis State; and the
reduction of Ormsby's representation
| in the lower House to two Assent bly,
men has been occasioned by a decided
decrease 10 population during the last
decade. Whether there has actually
been SO marked a reduction il our pop
ulatiOn is "a coalition seriously doubted
by many o. our citizens. y conserva-
tive approximation. based upon the
ratio oi inhabitants to tne qualified
electors OF this county, seems to sus.
tain the opinion that some error in cen
sus returns has undoubtedly occurred
The Ormsby county delegation in
both the Senate and the Assembly are
DESTROYS of at least maintaining our
present representation. They feel that
IN order to subserve the best interests
OF the county the actual and not the
nominal population Of this district
should be speedily aseertained. 1t is
therefore respectfully submitted that
the county commissioners authorize a
reasonable appropriation for the re-
taking Of the census of this county and
if they 10 their discretion believe that
such an act would be breach OF dele.
gated power let them recon- mend that
the enterprising citizens of our county
contribute the slight cost OF such a
census. I shall cheerfully donate TO
such fund, for I firmly believe that
though the resulting figures showing
an increase over present data may after
all fail to sustain our present represen-
tatlon. yet it is in keeping with both
pride and progress that our ;ctua!
| population should generally be known.

people have been impressed with the
necessity for the authorities taking he
roic messures toward abating such
sources of danger before another holt
day rolls around. The Fourth OF July
and Christmas are no longer holidays
for many who are compelled to dodge
cannonorsckers, guns, pistols, cannon,

THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN.-The
situation among the members OF the
present Board OF Aldermen remains In
etatu quo. The attitude OF all con-
cerned seems as firm as on Monday,
and what conclusion may be reached
between now and tomorrow night ia a
riddle likely to stump 0 lupus. Prop
osition after proposition has been re-
iected as uDtensble, and the way out Of
the difficulty ia as may ss ever. The
friends of both wings have been urging
one side or the other to give way 10
order that an organization OF the board
may be effected, hut so far such appeals
have fallen on deaf ears, as each quar-
tette seems to think it has already
made all reasonable concessions. 10
the meantime business which calls for
early attention is sccumulsting and
swelling the stock left over by the last
Council. Besides a number of offices
should be filed at tomorrow nights
meeting. The proposition that the en-
tire eight Aldermen resign is regarded
as out OF the question and against the
traditional law to the effect that few
die and none resign, and. so far as can
be learned, all have determined to
follow the example of the late Edwin
Nj, Stanton, and "stick."
