OUR new
HIGH SCHOOL

Ben Leon, the Reno architect was in
Fallon Sunday on business connected
with the drawing of the high school
plans, for which work he has been
selected by the honorable board OF
county commissioners
Mr.. Leon states that the plans for
our future institution of learning will
call for building modern in every
respect. 1t will he fifty or sixty feet,
two stories high, with two class rooms
on each floor. There will have Il hall
20 feet square and sliding doors, al
lowing of two class-rooms being con-
verted into one, wnea necessary for
lectures, etc.
The material of which the building
will be constructed has not been de-
cided upon, but it is understood that
the bids calling for contracts on the
structure will include stone, brick
and cement, wood having been wisely
eliminated by the county commission
ers in their reckoning.

EXAMINER TELLS
OF INHERITANCE TAX

The following is taken from the San
Francisco Examiner of last Tuesday:
AT the time the Douglass estate came
up for settlement Judge Coffey called
for an appraisment, and when the APP
praisers made their report he was not
at all satisfied and Immediately ordered
IA second appraisement to be made.
10 the great surprise of the Judge the
report of the second appraisers was to
the effect that there was no tangible
estate in this state and that there was
no inheritance tax due. Judge Coffey
then set an investigation on foot and
ascertained that the estate, which con-
sisted mostly of cash and bonds, had
been spirited away TO Nevada. Feel
ing that his duties as Judge called
upon him to see that the state OF Cali
fornia received its just dues, Judge
Coffey opened up a fight for the re-
turn of the estate. 1t is the general
belief that it was through the personal
efforts ot Judge Cof1ey, ana not De-
cause OF amy aid from the Office of
Treasurer McDougald, that the Doug
lass heirs were finally forced to pay
into the treasury of the city and
county of San Francisco some $50 1000. !"
In speaking OF tbs affair X. l.. Doug
lass stated that the Douglass heirs had
always considered the Inheritance tax
of the state of California hold up
affair, and the fact that number OF
other states have declared similar laws
invalid, substantiated the belief OF the
heirs. However, rather than make a
fight entailing much expense and time
the inheritance tax was paid.
