Efficient Attaches.

The selection Of John Considine as
Chief Clerk Of the Senate and Z. L. Bing
ham to the same post in the House, re-
suited in two of the most efficient Clerks
ever in the legislature. Their assistants
c. II. Mcintosh and Il. G. McDonough
were right up in line with them. In ad-
dition to their marked ability, they added
the excellent trait of being accommodating
and courteous.
1t shows what excellent service the
party gets when they select rapid firing
up-to-date newspaper men for such
places.
1t may be as well to add that all the at
taches Of the legislature were Of the very
best, and there was not a single stick"
in the lot.
The members knew what they were
doing when they selected such excellent
material.

Rubbish Disposed Of.

The session of the Legislature just
adjourned has disposed of several
pieces of political rubbish which might
just as well be sized up and thrown out
now as any time. The party has not
suffered by the work of two or three
frauds and fakirs who assumed leader
ship.
The House had some inexperienced
men who were mislead by these pre-
tenders and they made foolish mis-
takes innocently. AT the wind up they
cut loose from their blind guides and
did what was right by the people. Be-
fore another campaign there will be
plenty of time to pitch these fools and
liars out of the party councils and rel
egate them to the party ash barrel
where they belong. If the Legislative
session just adjourned did nothing else
than to weed out these people, the tax
psyers have plenty to be thankful for.
The only possible mistake that can be
made is for the party to allow these
political manakins to bob up some
where again. They are pretty we'll
spotted, borrower, and can be very
readily disposed Of

Read the Bill.
The Silver St

The Silver State, in commenting on the
nov IsC,cnuo bill, says:
The bill is an experiment in the way OF
revising the revenue laws OF the State
Whether it will operate satisfactorily is a
matter of doubt and Will require a
thorough and practical test of the law.
The reduction Of the State tax from 81
to so cents will not operate to make a
proportionate reduction i'll taxation, pro-
! viding the intention Of the law is carried
out The effect will be the very reverse
taxation, for this year at least, will be in-
..reased instead Of reduced. The reduc-
N in the State rate necessarily involves
ii increase in property valuation by the
State Board of Equalization the Assess
ors of the various counties This is neces-
sary in order that a sufficient amount OF
money be raised for the support OF the
State government. This increase in prop
erty valuation will, of course. apply to
the tax foG county and special purposes
the rates for which have already been
fixed by the various BOARDS OF COmmiss-
toner's Of the State. The result will be
that the property owners of the State
must pay al Increased amount of taxes
this year.
Ii the editor Of the Silver State viii
read the bill as printed in yesterday
APPEAL. he VIII discover his error. There
IS an increase III valuation and to this IN
crease there is an offset, provided by the
bill for a corresponding reduction in rate.
1t is very simple mathematical prOpD-
sition.
If the Silver State was assessed at $500
last year, it Will he assessed twenty per
cent higher this yea. for the State rate
has been reduced twenty per cent.
Ifall the property i'll the State is IN
creased il ,aluation twenty per cent. the
amount paid is no more than how, on!y
the valuation is higher and the rate
lower. Ii property valuation go up
thirty per cent. the rate goes down thirty
per cent

Evidently Mean Business.

When the bill passed the legislature
granting right of way to the Salt Lake
and Los Angeles railroad, to run through
Lincoln county, some members believed
that the road was bluff and would not
vote for the franchise.

twenty men were equipped with wagons,
n>, lments and grub and headed for
- :oln county, where they will COM
mence work surveying line for the road
with branch lines.
The line intends expanding over 500
100000 in its proposed work, which will
place over S2000,000 worth Of asSessable
property in Lincoln county.
Land transfers are every day occuran-
ces in Lincoln county and lively times
