rHE REVENUE LAW.

The Lovelock Tribune is still ham.
meriDg the new revenue law. II
claims chat a raucher OF Loyelock
valley, assessed sS00 on land, last
year paid sl9 % tax, and that this
year his land will be doubled and he
Will pay at the rate OF e. 20 on sl6Oo
or e35 20, the rate OF e 81 having
been fixed by the commissioners be-
fore the revenue act wss passed.
The Tribune studiously conceals the
fact that the county commissioners
have the power TO reduce the county
tax rate IL the rate as first fixed will
produce more revenue than is needed
for county purposes. The State rate
has already been reduced from 81 on.
the hundred dollars to eighty cents,
dDd il the valuation as turned in by
the assessors justiies il the county
fate Will doubtless be reduced in
proportion az the assessed valuation
OF the county is raised. Another fact
that seems TO have escaped the Trib-
une's attention is that the State
Board under the new law has the
power TO reduce the State rate and
will doubtless do it il the total as.
sessed valuation OF the State justifies
it.
Tie Tnbune's illustration Is based
entirely on the assumption that the
State and county rate III Humboldt
county will remain as fixed by the
commissioners before the new law
WINS passed. This is grossly mislead.
ing and Is doubtless done 20 make
political capital for the Republican
party IN the next campaign. The
Tribune will not claim that the land
in Loyelock valley is over assessed al
$40 per acre, II it Ia not, then the
people OF that valley have no just
cause for complaint at the present
assessment. 1t ia O fact well known
to every thinking resident OF this
State that a vast amount OF property
IN the State has escaped taxation for
many years. On that account the
rate OF taxation became and
entirely out OF proportion to the act.
ual amount Of property in the State.
As said before in those columns,
tho success or failure o! the new rev.
enue law depends entirely upon its
enforcement by the county assessors.
III, through itR enforcement, the tax.
able valuation Of the property in
Humboldt county is doubled, it will
DO because the property is there and
not otherwise. The same Is true OF
Elko and every other county in the
State. IL the assessed valuation OF

Conservative people who hare
thought the estimates that the west
e,n half OF the United States would
support 100000 people il the irri-
gable lands we're all reclaimed, to be
e~1travagant and visionary should not

orally admitted that 100000 or 100
ovv,aOo =s.cs Of highly productive
land can yet be reclaimed through
irrigation. Probably more than this
acreage can eventually be cultivated
since new sources OF underground
and other water supply are being
continually discovered. while at the
same time the utilization OF water Is
being reduced TO a much more eco.
nomical and scientific basis.
But the occupation - any great

Some weeks ago The State Revenue
Board sent the Attorney General to
Lincoln county to investigate some
revenue matters. The board had
learned that District Attorney Nc
Nance had accepted a retainer OF
s50 from the Oregon Short Lhe
people and was also representing the
county in che Delinquent tax case in
which the railroad figured. Mr..
WOODBURY. was also commissioned
with the Investigation OF the mining
tax cases.
His report TO the board Was that
the District Attorney OF Lincoln adj
United that he was acting as ar at
toruey for the Short Line, but that he
had accepted retainer before the road
became entangled with the county in
litigation OF the road bed and that he
had attended fully to the county's in.
terests irrespective OF his connection
with the railroad company, and
clearly INDICATED the District At

Regarding his suits against the De
Lamar company for delinquent taxes
he had sued merely for the delin
quency as it appeared on the record
and had not been connected with the
