Fatal eumon

ALI Doten in Salt Lake Tribune: The
disastrous prevalence Of pneumonia in
Tonopah at present is and has been in
cidental to all new mining camps in this
State or vicinity, Eureka. Phoebe, White
Pine, Bodi. and elsewhere. 1t comes
from lack of shelter from the cold air or
storms, especially at night-few houses
having to sleep most anywhere, out in
the sagebrush or among the rocks. Out
in White Pine, in the early times, a fell
low felt happy in being allowed to spread
his blankets. or lie down without any on
the earthen floor of a store or saloon, out
of the thick, frozen fog or ''pogonip" for
the night. Others not similarly favored
had to sit or. walk around hunting up
pneumonia, or get back to the white set
Elements as DON as expedient. The only
standof to pneumonia was plenty Of
good whisky, but that cost two-bits q
drink; therefore ~impecunious prospectors
we're measursbly defenseless.

From the Carson Morning Appeal Of Jan. Is.
The State Revenue Board held q SEES
sion in the Governors office yesterday.
When the matter OF the County Boards
Of Equalization fixing the value on rail
roads, the value OF which had been fixed
by the Assessors, came up, Attorney
General Woodburn gave it as a legal
opinion that they had exceeded their
right under the law. The Board, how
ever, decided that action in the matter
should be instituted by the State officials.
Most of the schedules Of last year were
left to the judgment OF the Assessors.
They were all passed until milk cows
we're reached, and these we're fixed at $25
per head.
Beef cattle were left to the Assessors,
and stock cattle we're rated at s17 a head,
except in Nye, Lincoln and Esmeralds,
where they were fixed at SIG. .
There was a little discussion over sheep,
and a move to cut them down to 1925 a
head was lost. They remain at the old
rate s $3.50; buck sheep $500.
Telephone and telegraph lines were left
to the Assessors, aad then came a tussle
over the valuation OF the STANDARD gauge
with terminals outside the State"
This meant the Southern Pacific. The
discussion was quite general. The Gov
ernor stated that the reduction of the
State rate from one dollar on the hundred
to eighty cents had caused a falling off in
the State revenue of about $4,000.
The Controller was called on to inform
the Board on the revenue returns under
the new law, and gave the valuation at a
triAe over $24, OOO. 900 for 1900, and $685.
0OO, 900 for 1901. The money collected for
1900 was s238, 260. "a, and for the year Just
closed 1857, 613. SO, an increase of $19, 352.-
IS. 8
Mr.. Ryan Of the Southern Pacific said
that about 10000 of that was the in
creased taxation OF the Southern Pacific.
They were willing to pay on $500 a
mile but objected to any higher rate. con-
| sidering the low tax on other classes OF
property.
1t was finally simmered down to the
consideration of two rates, $15, 900 or $780,
900 a mile. The adherents of one valua-
ton insist that higher figures will result
in a lawsuit. and the State will have no
| -onax 70 Robt tho omit Tho odvoootaa
of the $4,000 valuation insist that the
road will stand the raise without a suit.
Mr.. Ryan when appealed to replied
that he was only there to report to the
company, and the Law Department decid.
ed what litigation they should go into.
The matter was unsettled when the
Board adjourned to meet at 10 O'Clock this
morning.

CRUx MATHEMATIcoRUM II.

II is q remarkable admission that the
London Times makes concerning Ire
land. The situation. it says, is worse
than il was in 1895, when John Nor
ley, the last Liberal Irish Secretary,
left Office. In the good old Tory view
which the Times expresses. the reason
for this is that the Salisbury govern
ment has been trying to kill Home
Rule with kindness" The true 30
luton evidently is the policy of the
"frm hand" and Cromwellian severity.
Any student of Irish history would
naturally suppose that the "frm hand"
policy had had a long and fair trial.
The truth is that time is already begin
ming to prove that Gladstone was the
only great English leader Of his day
who came to understand the true way
to deal with races like the Irish and
the Beers.

suits, has by reason Of the opportunities

otherwise designated buttonholing and
wire pulling. brought about a number oil
interesting situations, some OF which have
reached the public ear. Standing out
prominently from among its many breth-
rem, one rumor arrests particular atten-
ton. Whether it hath foundation upon
fact or fiction, your subscriber saith not,
but gives it to you as it comes to him.
John Promise Jones is not to spiel at
Republican camp fires this Fall to the
rousing accompaniment of brass bands
and booming anvils, and as there is zone
other whose metal may match that Of
Francis Coup Newlands for the Senator

the realization Of an ambition long de-
ferred, and in grateful appreciation of the
Observation-Disclosures will with
hold the maintenance OF the Fusion cam
paign, and lend no wicked aid to the con-
summation Of Fusion ends in the election
of the State ticket. In acknowledgment
of Observation-Disclosures Republi-
can folk will do as little harm to the rep
resentative of the Demo-Silver party as
the delicacy Of the-er-situation-de
mands.
OF course, the boys don't see much fun
about all this. 1t has been such a snap
for them these many moons past to secure
the necessary plunks wherewith to prop
erly carry on the campaign OF political ed
ucation from loose, free, baggy pockets OF
the check p~antaloons on another mans
underpinnings. that it now comes hard
indeed to personally meet the ~exigencies
of q situation 30 fraught with dangerous
uncertainties.
Never has there been a time when the
loosening of the purse strings seemed so
urgent and woefully necessary. The
Silver Party Republican is haunted by
the ghosts OF his old ideals, and ye simon
pure Democratic Fusionist fain would
drive away these hobgoblins by the mu-
sic of many bands and the burning Of
much powder, but the wherewithal for the
doing of these things may now no longer
be forthcoming at the anxious bidding OF
the executive committee.
II all this be true, then, verify, hath
wisdom come to Francis. If it be not
true, the sound OF the weeping and wall
ing and crashing of teeth now issuing
forth from the councils of the Fusionist
will cease. But the floating of the rumor
will at least have served the purpose Of
teaching some people the weight of obi
cation.

STATE BOARD OF ASSESSORS
Referendum System Aga1n
Adopted.
The Individual Assessors Refer All Matters Back to Their
Individual Discretion.
From the Carson Evening News Of Jan. Is.

From the Carson Evening News Of Jan. Is.
To-day the State Board OF Assessors
practically went out of business and as
an organization will be heard from no
more. There are reasons and reasons
assigned by the members. Some Of
them say the "other seven" were act
ing regardless of law and justice. which
explanation is met by the other faction
by the plain, unpublished statement that
half the Board "wears the S. p. collar,
and finds it such q weight that they are
unable to transact any business"
Yesterdays session plainly indicated
the heal approach Of the end. Schedule
after schedule was taken up and passed
-''left to the discretion of the several
Assessors" The majority Of the Board
seemed willing to raise the valuation on
mich cows, usually owned by people OF
moderate circumstances, but thought
that the beef cattle industry should re-
ceive a bonus from the State in the form
of a reduction in values for taxation pur-
poses. The telephone and telegraph
lines were left to the judgment Of the As
SCISSORS, and sheep schedules as adopted
last year were maintained, and then
came the Central Pacific assessment.
This little item brought about the disso-
luton of the Board. The vote stood Z
to z. Half wanted to reduce it to a nom
inaI amount, or leave it ito the judgment
Of the individual Assessors" meaning
themselves, and the others stuck for $780,
600 per mile. The latter, however, Of.
fered to compromise on $4,000 pei
mile, but it failed, and the Board ad.
journed until this morning.
This morning the fight was resumed
but no man OF the bucking seven coult
be won over, and the deadlock was still
on. Finally, a motion was made to re
scind all previous action and adjourn
sine die. 1t passed, and this leaves thu
proposition Just where il was before thu
Legislature created the State Board o
Assessors.
The law has proved a failure, not how
| ever, because of visible defects in it's con
struction or intent. but because Of tn
failure to carry out its beneicent pro
visions on the part OF men elected to Of
fee by the people of Nevada for that pur
