\ scheme i beioe haiched In Carson
In Ct bill through the legislature ex.
tending tho terms Of the present county
officers 10 1906 twn Years longer than
they sora elected for, and to make the
terms OF all thu county officers fonr
years after that date. TIE principal
argument urged 10 favor OF the scheme
is that most oi the States elect their
county officers every four years and
therefore Nevada should do the same.
There may be no great objection to
making the terms OF county officers
four years, but no legislature should
extend or curtail the term for which
any officer was elected. Any attempt
in that direction should be sat upon by
the legislature.

vorable action on the part OF the di-
rectors, the property will pass into new
hands. or this, however, nothing IS To
be discussed above a whisper until the
dicker Is closed. In the meantime the
property has responded most satlsfac.
torily to exploratory work and through
