Connection With the Deamar
County

acting as the representative of the
county and the DeLarmar company at
the same time.
There should be law on the sta
tute books to prevent District At
torney from being thus engaged for
the county and a corporation litigat-
ing with the county, but unfortunate
ly there is not.
1t would be hard for an ordinary
man to do justice to both under such
circumstances, unless he was as wise
as the Virginia City judge, who, when
a mining suit was on in his court,
received $1,000 from one company ana
the next day $l,oO0 from the other
side. He at once returned $500 to the
parties who sent him $500 that the
scales Of justice might be equally bal
anced in his court.
The work of the officials in this conn
ty has placed it where jurymens
script was recently discounted at %
cents
While the Assessor OF Lincoln was
unable to find out anything ABOUT the
yield OF the mines there. the Salt
Lake papers were teeming with glow
ing accounts of the enormous produc-
ton of DeLamar.
Meanwhile. the DeLanars were cut
ting a splurge in Paris, rivaIing the
Mackays. The following Is from the
Salt Lake Tribune. of March 10, 1900:
Frank p Swindler, general manager
of the great DeLamar mine OF Nevaua
came in from camp to confer with
Cashier Cunningham yesterday morn
ing, and will leave for the southwest
again the last Of the week. a con-
siStent graduate of Captain DeLamar
Superintendent Swindler declined to
tell how from a production OF nearly
10000 tons month"; he is producing
and forwarding to Wells Fargo 4
Cos. New York house over 100000
of gold bullion with the removal OF
each sheet from the calendar. or tc
go into any detail whatever concering
operations of the bonanza.
Columns of this sort Of matter
could be reproduced, but an extract
is enough. The Appeal gives these
figures and facts as a supplement to
the voters of Lincoln county ana
sends a special e.I,lon into that cOun-
ty to be circulated among the tax
payers in answer to the incOherent
defense that the Record of Phoebe,
makes to the charges maze in DeLa-
mar by the Controller.
AS to the Record, we can assure
Mr.. Prudential, the editor, unat call

as set forth, and which happen to

Il have had some consultation with

regal ding this matter, and anything
We might do, will be OF our own voll-
ton.
Very respectfully yours,
H. E. Prudential,
Assessor Lincoln county, New.
This letter needs no comment from
the Appeal. 1t speaks more for the
lack OF courtesy and incapacity of the
author, than any comment We cOulu
possibly make.
In reply the Board sent him a COM
. munication beginning:
Your kind and considerate com
munication Of the ). received and
then proceeded to quote the law on
the subject OF which he had declared
himself SO profoundly ignorant
The result of the correspondence
caused the Controller to investigate
the Assessors reports on that mine
back as far as 1895, and according
TO the sworn statements OF the Com
pany, discovered that it was chais.:n9
price for milling the ore against the
net profits which was out of all pro-
portion to the actual cost and that
this was done for no other ,iurnose
,na,. to reduce the net profits with
fictitious charges and evade taxation.
This was laid before the Revenue
Board and it was estimated that by
fixing the cost of milling at the right
amount, that the company owed the
State over $4,000, on it's own sworn
statement.
The authorities were notified to
bring suit and the matter dragged
along. Finally Mr.. COhn, the manager
OF the DeLamar company came to
Carson, and in a most bullying and
arrogant manner, attempted to brow
beat the Board. He stated that the
officials of the State had better think
little before they antagonized a
company worth fifteen millions OF
dollars.
Mr. Cohn was informed that if
they were worth fifteen millions of
dollars, the State wanted its proper
ton OF the taxes on that amount.
He said that they would stand no
imposition, and would fight all tax
suits to a finish, but did not explain
how they were paying nearly $18 a
ton for milling while a mill half a
mile away was getting it's milling
done for $3.50 a ton.
The Board, on a cross-exeamination
OF Cohn, made him admit what it al
ready knew, that DeLamar owned the
mill which he leased at heavy rem
tai and allowed these heavy milling
charges, which came back into the
owners pocket in the form OF renta
and thus evaded taxation.
The matter dragged along until one
day Attorney General Jones Offered

AS the ore is designated as free
milling and the same KIND OF ore is
miiled in the same district for $3.50
per ton, it appears to this Office that
the milling charges as set forth in
the sworn statement of. the company
are made at a rate out of all proper
ton to the actual cost and for the
purpose of depriving the State Of It's
just revenue.
Some time last summer suit was
brought against the company at the
instigation of the Board OF County
commissioners OF Lincoln county
through their Assessor and District
Attorney. The assistance OF the State
was offered in the prosecution OF the
suit ard declined by the county au-
thorities.
The suit was instituted for the sum
OF $4,000 and the defendants confess
ed judgment for $4,92020 and paid
the same
It appearing from the recorl and
tax statements OF the company that
this sum is insufficient to cover the
companies Indebtedness to me State
and that no officer OF the State or
county has authority to compromise
delinquent tax suit, you are here

Very respectfully yours,
Sam Davis,
Controller
Now the above esumates are based
on the sworn statements or the mine
owners, and still the assessor was not
able to see that a charge of nearly
S18 a tor Vas a swir6Ie to the county.
He must have been able to see
that an adjoining mine on the same
ledge only charged 81. 81 fer the same
work, but somehow he tailed TO do so
Now let us take Mr. Coln. the man.
ayers statement to the Board OF State
Revenue That they were worth fifteen
millions. When he said this, he
merely was making a big bluff and
threat, but he was telling the truth.
DeLamar has admitted clearing
$13,000,000 off the m;,e ana this would
leave expenses at $2,00O,0OO, thus De
Lamar corroborates his manager. Now
let us see what the State anu county
have suffered
The mine has paid in taxes the sum
OF $32943.47, when 1t SHOULD have paid
at the rate OF $3.50 or lne hundred
the sum OF $396,O56.53
The April Fool has paid the sum
OF $1,035.22, when it should have paid
on at least three millions netting its
owners, the tidy sum OF $4,000
The totals are over $4,000, in
round numbers.
